Happy trails – back on track

rainbow-layer-cake

Hey, did you miss me? I’ve inadvertently taken a bit of a bloggy break over the last couple of weeks. Turns out it was much needed as I needed some space to re-calibrate for my new working life and routine with the kids. I’ve also been doing an online course called “31 Days to Soul [...]

What does “Successful” look like to you?

success and failure

One of the most difficult things about my decision to be a Stay At Home Mum are the times when I acutely feel the yawning gap between my previous life a a career woman and my current life scraping weetbix off the floor. I refer to them as “I’m such a failure” funks.  CrashHubby then [...]

Get me off this treadmill

so-much-to-do

This image shows exactly how I’m feeling right now. How often have you said to yourself that you wish there were more hours in the day?  There’s a number of things working against this scenario. Firstly there’s the Law of Time – you can’t have any more than 24 hours each day! Then there’s one [...]

Who I am, depends on who you are

I’m joining in for the first time with Eden Riley’s Fresh Horses Brigade meme because she’s asked Edenland readers, “Who the hell are you?” I thought about it and decided I couldn’t answer it, so here I am writing anyway. I could easily tell you who I used to be: overly confident, underminingly insecure, a [...]

Condition Report: How I’m really feeling

Happy Friday everyone.  I’ve made a vlog for you, and yes it isn’t short and snappy so watch it when you have a spare 5 mins, like now ;) Is it possible to be exhausted and energised at the same time?  If so, I’m a walking contradiction at the moment.  I’ve been doing lots, I’ve [...]

Totally not the Friday the 13th post I had planned

sunflower

I was going to write something witty about it being Friday the 13th. Perhaps share my top 13 mishaps. But I couldn’t write. I’m a bit overwhelmed. The CrashKids are in full destruction mode of late. I’ve got too much work to do. Last night when CrashHubby walked through the door I burst into tears. [...]

Challenge Update: Reaching new heights

Laney-CrashKids-Mt-Buffalo

As I’m writing this, we have just returned from a 4 day trip to Mt Buffalo. It was hot and then it stormed on our last night – wet camp pack up, yuk! Regardless of the rain at the end, the whole family had a brilliant time. We enjoyed catching up with old friends, watching [...]

Challenge Update: A question of values

Ta Moko

It’s time for my weekly update on how my Challenges are going.  Before I give you the low down though, I wanted to talk to you about values.  Why? Well, firstly because I’m following Deb’s 52 weeks to Simplify Your Life at Home Life Simplified and this week she has challenged us to define our [...]

New Year, New Look!

Out with the old, in with the new

Out with the old, in with the new Now I’m not going to lie to you, as I type this it is after 2am in the morning.  I have been working far too hard on changing my blog over to a new look and layout.  I hope you like it! I worked with Danielle from [...]
