90s Films – A Love Affair
There was a lady in our town when I was younger who dressed as thought the 1960’s never ended. Fringes and low flowing hair. Bell bottoms and platforms. I used to wonder what made that so darn special that she couldn’t let it go. Now well into her fifties this woman was stuck in…

Suger Residence
A long time ago I was looking at plans with Hubby and a builder deciding on the size of our lounge room. Based around the kitchen with wide island bench, I wanted a big space that was versatile, had high ceilings and would be the centre of our home. And 5 years ago {I think…

Get Blogged.
This weekend was a bit of a moment for my family, blog wise. My brother posted on his blog for the first time since before his almost 18 month old daughter was born and my sister had me open one for her. Both have been instructed that when they are rich and famous they owe…

Yesterday I went to the beach.
On the Queensland bloggers facebook group a call out was posted for anyone who would like to join Lisa and Jos for a coffee Wednesday morning. Being the bossy type I said, well, I could do later, any chance of that? And they said yes, and bit by bit a pretty big group formed. A lot…

An aversion to ironing
My Mum thinks I should iron more. I think she’s craaaazy. She thinks that everything I wear needs ironing. Which reminds me, don’t let her anywhere near my rather large smalls. Not that she loves ironing or anything. Oh heck no. Not an ironer at all. But she does love a crisply ironed shirt/pant/freakin’ everything. Me,…

Learner drivers need HELP
At dinner a little while ago, we got onto the topic of learner drivers. You see, my Dad and my Uncle have been responsible for training their fair share of drivers. Patient and understanding {and strong, should there be an accident, they don’t bawl like girls I like did} they undertake a task that would…
