Last week I had a day or 2 of not feeling the best... we all have them. Probably over-tired, stressed, worried, hormonal... whatever. I am pretty good at pulling myself out of these moments. I am good at positive thinking and I am big believer in thoughts become things. So if I feel bad for …
It's day 1 of the school holidays and I am actually looking forward to them. I say that now, of course! Ask me around day 4! But I am actually really tired. Like tired in my bones type of thing. Not from lack of sleep, but rather because I felt like I was always rushing …
Life is always throwing us a curve ball... just when you think you have it under control something else comes along. Remember when I wrote about my little friend Ellie? She is almost 12 and she has crohn's disease. Ellie is in the same year as my son. Well, about 10 weeks ago Ellie's Mum …
A few weeks ago I was asked if I'd be an ambassador (with Kieren Perkins and Gabby Millgate) for SEEK Learning. I was asked about my passions and what lead me to a full-time career in blogging... Here's what I said, how I do it and why I love it! Here's the direct link too.
At the top of our street is a hill and some bush with great walking tracks through them. Every few days (when it's not hot because I HATE snakes!), we take a quick wander through. This week we've been a couple of times and I took my camera along... Bear is busting to get going! …

Hi there! Just popping in for a quick hello... The sun has been shining around here, and it makes life seem so much more brighter. The dreariness of Winter is so boring. Sometimes I can smell a tiny hint of Spring in the air. This week has been magnificent, but still pretty cold in the …
Today I am in Melbourne at St Vincent's Hospital for another opinion and check up from a gastro doctor and a surgeon. At Easter this year I was septic again (3rd time in 12 months) so my Doctor is a little worried about this happening too often so I'm seeing the big guns today in …
I ran in to my old day-care-mum last week. I haven't seen her in a while and we were chatting to each other about the kids. Her girls are all grown up and have left home (they were in high school when my boys used to be in her care). It's nice to see someone …
I had to get out of the house yesterday so I took a little walk with the boys up in the hills near my house. My skin graft went well, but it's not been pretty! The graft behind my ear was pretty painful! The site of the BCC wasn't too painful but it doesn't look …
I have 3 boys and they are wild and funny and free. And I've allowed them to be! We play a lot of sport. Rugby League, AFL, touch footy, cricket and whatever else they ask for. I will never say no to sport! Afterall, that's what I need to do with my boys - keep them …
I don't have the best history (or genes!) when it comes to skin things. In 2012 I wrote about a basal cell carcinoma I had removed here. It has reappeared bigger and nastier! Today I'm having a skin graft and I am not looking forward to it. So, basically, they're taking skin from behind my …
