This morning we have an Open House for about an hour. Hopefully people will actually show up because if I had to get out of bed at 8am (I went to bed at 5am…) and clean my house and then have no one show up… I’ll be pissed. Hubby has been a lovely busy bee, [...]

I’ve got two of these that I picked up in Townsville a couple of years ago. I always ‘planned’ on repainting them but never found the time or money to justify the project. You know, one of those things that just stays waaaaaaaaaay down the bottom of your To-Do-List. Well, after deciding I needed a [...]

How could anyone be afraid of this little guy :) I drove past the wooden toys store, did a u-turn, parked and had a look inside. I love wooden toys. I love painted wooden building blocks, puzzels, dollhouses and puppets. I’m not really a fan of plastic toys, it’s just not my thing. Oh and [...]

From this… … to this!!! Yep, the finished product… the colour just makes me smile, so yummy. I decided it was too pretty for books so it now displays all our little figurines we’re slowly collecting from our travels. They were displayed on the lamp table in the loungeroom but no one really noticed them [...]

No, not my Steve… he’s waaaay older than that. Ryan’s best mate Steve. We all had a party at his house last saturday, it was a lot of fun. Some crazy things we done with balloons and I may have even defiled some using a permenant marker :P Steve and I… we dont have that [...]

Ok, so why haven’t I blogged in the last 2 days? Excellent question… its down to a technical fault. For some reason blogger has decided I need a break from uploading photos because it wont let me do it anymore!!! Yep, it just bailed out and quit on me. If I see “Done: with errors [...]

Sorry Charlie, they have to go. It’s in your best interest. You’re starting to drive Toby crazy. Mummy hoped you could father some puppies but it’s not meant to be. I held off as long as I could. I can’t take you to the dog park while you have them, its socially unacceptable. You’re such [...]

Auction Centers get me all excited. The thrill of the hunt and the skill used to get the best possible price, all the while you’re hoping someone doesn’t swipe the apple of your eye from under you… sometimes pockets just don’t seem to be deep enough. When I went to my local auction center this [...]

I went and picked my little telephone table up this afternoon. It’s much more sturdy than I thought it would be. I’m guessing it was made in the 60s-70s judging from the draws and cushion support. Varnish is also in pretty good condition. Thats the great thing about occasional furniture, as its only used “occasionally” [...]

There is something wrong with a part of my brain called the pituitary gland. It’s not producing enough Follicle Stimulating Hormone (FSH), so that my ovaries can make oestrogen and progesterone. You know that blood test I had a few weeks ago… well my hormone level was 1 and it should have been around 30-40… [...]
