Last week I was listening to Kelly and Brooke’s Let It Be podcast where they were answering listener questions. One inquisitive listener asked the girls, ‘If you could do any job in the world (other than what you do now – even if it’s your dream job!), what would it be?’ Interesting question right? I … Read more
Scrolling through Facebook the other day, I came across this quote from Sally Coulter. Now, I have no idea who Sally Coulter is, but this quote and it’s inherent message kept streaming into my consciousness all day. I’m not sure where I sit with this. As much as I can see what Sally is … Read more
This year I’m getting focused. My word for 2017 is focus. As with my previous years’ words, it came to me out of nowhere, but once it did I knew it was exactly what I needed. I’m at the stage in my writing career (can I call it that?), where I need to concentrate, work … Read more
Today feels like the beginning. The school holidays are over, and I’m ready to settle back into routine. As much as I love the spontaneity of being on holidays, especially being away on the coast, I always love coming back home and normality. Although, it’s not exactly normal around these parts.

Let’s play a little game. It’s called: “I still have so much in my head to process and the only way I can blog is with a word prompt.” It’s a bit like those taking stock posts, except nowhere near as good. Okay, let’s go: Writing: I’ll start with this because it’s the only thing … Read more
It was bound to happen. It always happens. You’ll know what I’m talking about. When you come home from holidays and reality just smashes you in the face. As if to say, ‘Helloooo! I’m here! Life’s not one long vacation you know!’ Yep, that’s what I’m talking about. This last week has been full of that … Read more
I can’t believe how quickly the past month has gone. It only feels like yesterday that the kids and I were counting down ’17 days till we move!!’ and now here I am, almost 30 days later typing this at my new office in our ‘new, but not new’ house. I think I mentioned in … Read more
(Why the agave? I don’t know, there’s just something calming about succulents don’t you think?) I shouldn’t be here right now. I don’t have time. But I just had to write. The last fortnight has been crazy. Between trying pack, renovate, run a business, run a household, organizing for upcoming dance comps, dealing with … Read more
