More Beach Days {Inskip Point}
When my plans for this weekend got last-minute cancelled, I checked in with my sis on what she was up to and it turns out, she was going camping overnight at our favourite spot at Inskip Point. With a few hours notice we packed our gear {thank goodness for the ever ready camping box} and…

At War with Food.
I was floating around the interwebs the other day checking out recipes and health and fitness type stuff. There were a lot of meme’s with slogans about not warring with food or your body. In my mind I could hear the little voice say, I’m not. All clear here. Which, let’s face it, always makes…

Smarter Summer Office Dressing {She Wore What}
Today I am guest posting for the first time this year over at Smarter Admins. A site owned and operated by my friend Laura. Last year we kicked off a series where I would talk about building an office wardrobe, give tips and hints for office dressing and share some photos. Of course. Today’s topic…

The Count Down is on to Thirty!
This is my thirtieth year on this planet. I think that’s the way it works, I’ve never been that good at math type things. But this March I turn 30. THIRTY. What an amazing, wonderful, ridiculous thing. I am so grateful to get the chance. You know, fingers crossed. It has me all sorts of…

Mr Complainer.
I met a man who has a temper, who if he wasn’t almost a foot shorter than me would have loved to stand over me. He was unhappy with a small clerical error and he was here to rake someone over the coals. Anyone would suit. There was shouting. Harsh words and grumpiness. And yes,…

Maxi Skirt & Tucked Shirt Standard {She Wore What}
Most afternoons Hubby is home by 5:30pm. In Summer that means if we are fast there is an hour or two of usable light before it gets dark. Sometimes we just lay about in the backyard and have a chat, sometimes there are errands to run or food to buy. More often than not I make sure…

Hot and Cold.
You’re hot and cold. One minute you’re here, the next, you’re not. In the past few weeks I’ve seen you twice, only for a minute or two at a time. That’s not the way it’s supposed to be. I need more of you. More from you. Some days I sit and wait for you. You…

Matchy Matchy {She Wore What}
An afternoon stroll with Hubby has become a bit of a rarity around here. These photos were taken after 6pm and it was still 30 degrees. In Summer, in Queensland, it’s HOT. Hot and still and hot. But stroll we did. Him in his daggy clothes, me in my matchy matchy’ness with straight hair and…

Unlimited.
Earlier this week I found out that I was nearing the top end of my hosting allowance on my current plan. The next step up was to go to unlimited for a still reasonable price but it got me wondering. Maybe I use too many photos. Perhaps the video idea wasn’t a good one. I…

Fun for Whom?
I was told yesterday that drinking green smoothies for some meals was a bit full on, too strict and not very much fun at all. This person spoke to me about deprivation, enjoying everything in moderation and about trying to hard to make something happen. Now. I’m all for living life. I’m all for everything in…
