Does your Blogger blog need a makeover? {giveaway}
I took a bit of a holiday from my blog designer a little while ago. Virtually full time work and my new commitment to two posts a day used up just about all the spare time I had. But now, it’s time to get back on the horse. I’m throwing the doors open and accepting…

The battle of the iPad aka lame first world problems.
Around here, we don’t play well with others. We especially don’t share too well. I don’t like other people touching my STUFF, is a commonly heard phrase around here. It’s a movie quote, I think, but I’ve claimed it as my own. I think it comes from being the eldest child watching my much-loved collection…

Blue Pencil Skirt LOVE {She Wore What}
So this post had words, and then they disappeared. Weird. But generally the words went along the lines of the fact that this is my fourth Virtu pencil skirt. I also have one from Autograph and two from ASOS Curve. To say I’ve found a go to style is an understatement. I wear them with heels and boots…

Suger does Weight Watchers 01
So here I am. The morning after the night before. I was weighed in last night. It was a bit of a shock compared to my obviously broken’ish home scales. One heck of a starting weight, that’s for sure. I’m putting it out of my mind and simultaneously using it to push toward my first goal of…

30 before 30 {2}
There’s something that has been a constant for me pretty much my whole life. I’ve been healthy. Big, but healthy. Fat, but healthy. The most time I’ve spent in hospital is probably the time with my Mother for my birth {or visiting, but that’s a different story}. I’ve never broken a bone. Haven’t required stitches.…

Turning Inward
I know a lot of people don’t like these sort of posts, see them as attention-seeking or comment grabbing or whatever. But I don’t write this blog for them. I write it for me. Not to sound all up yours about it, but I do. I write for me. And today, this weekend, in fact,…

Pressure in my brain.
I have a sore throat. A borderline on tonsillitis sore throat. My sinuses are stuffed. I got behind in my schedule so I have no decent posts in draft to finish and send. I just about cried about putting dinner in the Thermomix and turning it on. I made Hubby, under the threat of death…

When you blog about what you know…
When you blog about what you know, well things just go better. For me this is true. I think being a personal blogger and blogging about things you know is a bit of a derrrr moment. It was part of the conversation on the Brand Meet Blog twitter chat the other day. Some said they…

Mid Year Fatigue
I’m tired. Do you ever get that. It’s been a busy start to the year, lots of ups and downs. And I feel a bit worn out. It’s that time again, the time where I review my goals, take stock of what I’ve achieved and either recommit to my goals or refocus them. Do you…
