It’s been another hectic week here as I’m sure it has been for you as well.  It’s Friday evening here and I’m sitting at my laptop with a mug of peppermint tea by my side dressed for a night of enjoying the great indoors and a bit of solitude.  I love Friday nights like this.…

It’s just two weeks until the first of December and I’m already beside myself with the anticipation and the excitement.  Family, food, ultra long long-weekends….  and advent calendars. I am excessive when it comes to the calendars.  We each have a gift based calendar and … one filled with chocolate.  All four calendars take pride…

I love that it’s ‘November Already‘.  Summer is definitely in the air.  Celebration planning is well under way.  I feel as if we’ve all worked so hard these last ten months that we’re entitled to enjoy these final two months.   To that end, I am happy to report that my snaps this week are all…

This is what the holiday season in Sydney is all about in one photo. Sun, surf and beach.  For the early birds amongst us, the days begin here after a run or walk.  For others, days off and school holidays are spent on the beach on towels as we draw energy from the sun.   The…

This placard made me smile on the way into work on Monday morning. It had been a long night on call, I was sleep deprived and not too sure how I’d get through the day.  I was also running late because of course Monday traffic is always especially bad when you’re least equipped to deal with…
