Are You Satisfied?

07:38AM | December 31, 2010 | 12 comments

Time to get reflective, maybe set a few goals as well… don’t you think? I’m not one for New Years resolutions, I’m too flippant. I do like looking back, remembering the choices that lead me to where I am, thinking on the lessons I’ve learnt, that sort of thing. The last six months have been [...]

Ruffles & Bows GIVEAWAY

Yesterday I did a few things to perk myself up a bit. I’ve been working a lot but it seems that as soon as the money comes in, it goes straight back out again. It’s left me slightly frustrated. I usually get my hair done every two months and the odd pedicure, it’s what Steve [...]

Curbside Cool

Steve and I were driving home the other day and I just happened to glace out the window down a side street and saw this out on the curb along with a lot of other faded broken outdoor toys. Like a possessed woman, I made Steve do an emergency U-Turn and shoved this sucker into [...]

Christmas at Our Place

08:36PM | December 26, 2010 | 7 comments

So… um, I wasn’t really feeling the Christmas spirit this year. Sure, I was still giving, donating and appreciating my family’s good health and fortune but I wasn’t as into as I’ve been in previous years. I usually go over the top with decorations, planning the menu weeks or even months in advance, even personalising [...]

Big Boy Bed

*sigh* I love my new camera, I can take photos in pitch black now! You might remember I went through another of my shopping obsessions back in the middle of the year about toddler beds, the pros and cons, should we just take the rail of the cot blah blah blah. Well I bit the [...]

Changeroom Confessions

I’d adore it if you stopped by the City Chic Blog and left me some supportive comments. I’ve been busy getting my fashion-on lately and there are lots of photos of me acting like an amateur model, prancing around the change rooms in my knickers… if nothing else it’s worth a giggle.

Family Time

”Dad, you’re awesome!” I’ve been trying to lay low the last couple of days and really invest in more family time on top of all the pre-christmas craziness. It’s just going to be the three of us this year and I while I know I’ll really miss my family on the day, I’m quite thankful [...]

OMG Shoes

05:00AM | December 20, 2010 | 15 comments

As I mentioned earlier, I like to obsess over little unimportant things… like bags and shoes. I rarely buy them so when I do I have trouble justifying the purchase and really over think it. I’d been searching for a pair of size 10 Vivid Blue Low Rise Converse sneakers for aaaaaaaaages. Steve never wanted [...]
