Women Aren’t Women Anymore

November 28, 2012

I could feel the hair stand up on the back of my neck as I read an article by Suzanne Venker about women’s war on men, published on the Fox News opinion blog.  Ms. Venker is convinced that women have gone about equality all wrong. We have emasculated men and now they won’t marry us.  […]

It’s been a long day. We didn’t get to bed until nearly 1 and had to be up at 5 to finish packing and drive to Brisbane for our flight to Canberra. We had a few hours to wander on our own and we found a lovely cafe in Manuka near our hotel and had […]

Human Brochure Canberra

October 25, 2012

John and I are leaving first thing in the morning for Canberra to take part in the 500 strong Human Brochure Campaign.  A while back the ACT Tourism office decided that inviting 500 people active in social media and blogging to visit Canberra for a weekend would do more than a huge advertising campaign.  They […]

October 18, 2012

Lots of it.  I have a history of getting so engrossed in what I’m doing that I forget to get up and get water or anything else.  You might call it a one-track mind but you might also call it forgetful.  Regardless what it is, I’m guilty of it in a big way.  I’ve been […]

Back when we were flash with cash, buying things was a matter of getting in the car or going online and making the purchase.  No thought, no planning, no anticipation – I wanted it, I bought it.  Now don’t get me wrong, that WAS a lot of fun and there’s a lot to be said […]

Cravings

October 16, 2012

Good lord you’d think I was pregnant with the cravings I’ve been having lately.  Like today – John asked what we were having for dinner and I gave a mental note of what we had in the freezer that I could magically thaw because I hadn’t given a moment’s notice to dinner planning.  Some days […]
