I think I wore myself out.
This week has been big in terms of this BLOG {not bog like the newsletter said. Fail!}. Big in terms of visits. Big in terms of me digging deep and saying the things that were there for me to say. Funny, I can go weeks or even months between having a good bust out with…

Awkward Blogging Moments
These guys? Not awkward at ALL! Sometimes awkward blogging moments happen. You might make a mistake before you knew it was a mistake or think something you didn’t know wasn’t what you are SUPPOSED to be thinking. Or worse, you might meet someone and say the most awkward thing you could say. Well never…

Canteen Bandanna Day {She Wore What}
I was contacted by the organisers of Bandanna Day regarding featuring the day on my blog. Obviously. I doubt they individually email all Australians to get on board. Anyway, that’s beside the point. The point is, I agreed and said I would use one of the bandanna’s in an outfit post. Show you how…

Gratitude. And Trolls. Tuesday, done and dusted.
Last night when I wrote this morning’s post I was sad, annoyed, frustrated and a little bit angry with myself. Through writing it I was reminded of everything that I want for myself. What my goals are. Why I’m doing this. I know why. I know what I want for myself. I just needed a…

Stalled and Questioning.
So let’s talk about me. About weight loss. About getting healthy verses getting thinner. About progress or the lack of. I’m no longer getting smaller. I’m not getting bigger. But I’m not getting smaller either. I’m working out like a mad woman. In the gym I have found something I love. Nothing makes me smile bigger than…

How to Stay Sane in a Crazy Blog World
I received an email this week, an email from a {lovely, charming, gorgeous} reader who was concerned for us all. Us being Bloggers. There was a fight raging and she wondering where to from here. What would happen to us all. And bit by bit the week revealed itself and people’s real commitments did too. This is not a…

Best $25 Dress EVER! {She Wore What}
Some Sundays Hubby and I go out for breakfast. Well, brunch usually. Sunday is our sleep in day. And brunch requires comfy clothes. Right!? But cute, it IS still a date after all. So the perfect compromise is this casual dress form Big W that I picked up for $25! Worth every cent and more. A quality…

Dear Brain, Shut Up.
I bet there are at least one of you out there who has said this to yourself. Probably more than one. Lots more than one. I was awake last night, I had ideas flying through my mind. Plans and notes and scribbled messages to myself are flung everywhere as part of a note taking system.…

Too Much of a Good Thing?
I have too many gym buddies. For now. Waaaaay too many. I never get to go with my brother. I see my sister-in-law once or twice a week, I wave to my neighbour fortnightly and then there are the old faithfuls my sister and cousin. What this means is because I want THEM all to…
