Unproductive is My Middle Name + Worst Gift Ever
I had BIG plans for this weekend. I have open documents here, there and everywhere. Guest posts, eBooks drafts and especially my competition entry for the Kidspot Top 50 Bloggers. So after lots and lots of naps, one night that included WAY too much wine and that cold, I have virtually nothing done. Seriously! Lucky I left…

Midnight Moments
I think best when it’s quiet. In the still of the night I am clearer, more focused and if I do say so myself brilliant. It’s just too bad there’s no one else around to see it. Don’t you hate that? It’s just too bad that society is built around being awake during the day.…

I realised the other day that they are more complex then they appear on the surface. So complex that there is a lesson in most episodes, lessons in life and…

Self-Esteem or Self Destruct?
How would you rate your self esteem? LOW, MEDIUM or HIGH. She asked. HIGH! I answered, bordering on up myself actually. I answered, only a little bit tongue in cheek. It’s self-esteem week over at Seven Cherubs, and Naomi is talking a lot about how to maintain your esteem for yourself {Oh haha, I got sick of…

Top What!? Part 2 – The Pictures One
More on the actual stuff that happened coming soon. Did you see Part 1 about my hair? Well that part, the one about my hair, it’s here. Probably. Part 3? Who knows though. But don’t you think that the memories of fun times like this start to fade? Maybe I’ll just make it up.…

Keep It Simple
Sometimes you have to step back to see things clearly. Sometimes it takes a step forwards. Sometimes life gets full and busy and complicated. But you shouldn’t forget what’s important. Sometimes all you need to do is let you hair down and party like an 18 year old. Sometimes saying that there’s a problem, that you’re…

There are some emails a blogger of random things doesn’t expect to get, and the hey you’re in the Top 50 Kidspot Bloggers, is one of them. I was a wee bit excited to hear about the panel of judges and the word on the street was the prizes were AMAZING. Flash forward to this week and…
