As luck would have it, I’m writing this post about my SAHM fitness regime on the greyest day of my break.  After endless days of soft sunshine and pleasantly warm evenings, Friday’s been a bit of a bust.  I reckon the weather is as gutted as the rest of us that summer’s officially over.  Perhaps…

I was at the top of my game when I wrote that post about toddler proofing the other day. But sadly, things have gone awry since then. This is how our microwave looks now. The little gadget on the left is meant to be a door lock for ovens and fridges ($6.99, Dreambaby at ToysRUs).…

A blog reader recently asked if I wouldn’t mind putting together a few of my thoughts and experiences with toddler proofing SSG Manor.  This post is a summary of what I’ve done to the house so far but what would probably be more helpful to my reader is if any of you with a bit…

So far, I’m loving this staycation.  And it’s all because of the time and how much of it I find myself with these days.  No need to ration it, no need to spend it wisely.  All I need to do, apparently, is to just let it go by and enjoy where it takes me.  Yesterday…

I’m sitting here at my desk watching the already grey and soggy clouds gather more ammunition for the anticipated storms that are going to be bearing down on Sydney this afternoon.  Just in time for the commute back home.

Okay Monday, bring it on.  I’m ready for whatever it is you’re going to throw at me today.  I got in early and had my pick of the undercover parking spaces.  I then embraced the Monday morning after having had to work the Saturday by tipping my head upside down next to my parked car…

I know.  But I promise.  This will be my last dying swan post about The Baby Photos.  And The Trauma of trying to organize The Baby Photos one year (and a bit) after the baby who is now a toddler’s arrival. On the up side, I placed so many click and collect orders with my…

www.smh.com.au Oh, the drama, Australia!  Schapelle is free and hiding somewhere in a luxury resort in Bali as she prepares for a lucrative ‘tell all’ interview with Channel Seven.  I did a very unAustralian thing on Sunday and didn’t watch either her biopic on Channel Nine or the INXS miniseries on Channel Seven.  What I…

I write to you today as a woman who has learned her lesson about putting off until tomorrow what can be done today and finally defrosted her freezer.  We reached crisis point yesterday morning when the freezer door couldn’t actually close on account of all the ice that had formed.  We’ve had weeks of having…

And wasn’t it just one of those spectacular summer weekends we all love Sydney for? The kind where you don’t even mind that you had to have a pool outage for 15 minutes halfway through your laps so that the staff could move the boom gate in the pool because you could then sit pool…
