The last 2 and a bit years my Darling Husband has managed to achieve a new level of “excitement”, “winning” and absolute pure “joy”. How has he achieved this you may ask? Well it all started after we sold our suburban home and moved to our current property. We moved to our new 20 acreContinue reading “Man Happiness”

Peace on the River
We purchased our river place nearly seven years ago. It has given us such pleasure and a sense of peace. There is nothing like waking up and, with your morning cuppa sit and view the river. It’s during the quiet early morning that one can witness the diversity of wildlife that the river calls to.Continue reading “Peace on the River”
Pass Words…..
You’ve entered the incorrect password or log on details. Have you forgotten? This message is the bane of my existence. Especially when it’s popping up on my youngest sons electrical device. And it’s always his device followed by a close second with Darling Husband and First Born Son. I even have a black book (andContinue reading “Pass Words…..”
2020….
I know I’m a little late to the party wishing everyone a Happy New Year, however I decided to take a break. No blogs or social media and just breath over my Christmas/New Year period.

Take that chance….

Blogging didn’t even occur to me and certainly never on the internet! Well fast forward 10 yearsContinue reading “Take that chance….”
Ethos, Creed or Guiding Principle……
The last few years I’ve started to think deeply about who I want to be. Not what people think about me but actually who or how I want to live my life.

Stop! Reflect and Balance
I recently wrote about being busy. Well I unfortunately fell down that rabbit hole. My only saving grace was that I knew it and did not try to out do anyone in how busy I’d been. My work life balance had tipped to far into work. The last few weeks has seen me jump hardContinue reading “Stop! Reflect and Balance”
Argh…..I’m So Busy…
That catch phrase…..I’m so busy……. We all wear it like a badge of honour. I’m so busy with…….and then we all give a long laundry list of all the business we have to do. Then the next person tries to out do the laundry list of business. However the tone of voice is always oneContinue reading “Argh…..I’m So Busy…”
Who has the blankets??
So I’m pretty sure most couples whether married, engaged or long term has an inkling of what I may discuss next. Imagine it’s nighttime and after a long hard day all you want to do is get comfy for Mr Sandman. Now after being with my husband for just on 20 years I have aContinue reading “Who has the blankets??”
