Renovations – moving into the kitchen
Because we still haven’t completed the splashback or the rangehood, or even the lighting for the matter, I am loathe to photograph my kitchen properly for the “after” shot. We are getting there however, last weekend we bought our pendant lights which will eventually be installed over the kitchen bench. As I mentioned previously, our [...]
Renovations – the kitchen…. continued.
So after the kitchen was installed, a week late due to some issues with where the gas and electricity was plumbed in for the stove. What? I had no idea that I would end up becoming project manager, by default. Just because I happened to be home at the time the tradesmen were installing stuff [...]
Renovations – The kitchen
One of the pieces of advice I have given to some friends who are renovating their home, is not to leave too many finishing details until the end of the job. Or at least to ensure those little details are completed before the room becomes functional. In our case we left the decision about the [...]
Farm visit
Last week our playgroup went on our annual excursion, we went up to a small farm about 40 minutes away and had a lovely morning together. Its been hard getting Stella to playgroup the last few months, there are quite a few younger boys and the playing has changed, she is happier to go now [...]

Today I woke up before my family and got dressed in my running gear that I had laid out the night before. I got a lift with my running buddy to the event and then lined up with thousands of other runners and prepared myself to run 10kms. It was an awesome run, maybe a [...]
Finally home.
Today was a good day, a really good day. A spontaneous invite saw lots of friends descend with beers and steaks and the children ran wild in the garden while the dad’s put together an early Christmas present for our girls. A big trampoline, I don’t know who is more excited, them or me! The [...]
Little Athletics
Amy has been doing Little Athletics for nearly two months now. Its once a week, on a Friday night, from 6pm until about 8.30pm and so far she loves it. She is one of the youngest in her age group of Under 7 Girls because the cut off is October. Strange that its different to [...]
Lofty ambitions.
Its November and that means Nablopomo or National Blog Posting Month where I am supposed to do a blog post a day! Which is incredibly ambitious when you look at how sporadic my blog posts have been for the last few months. Even more ambitious when its the second day of the month and already [...]
