I should be packing. My suitcase is currently sitting empty in my room, waiting to be filled with warm clothes (gotta love Melbourne weather) and probably too many pairs of shoes. I have yet to check-in to my flight online and print off my boarding pass, plus I need to organise a few last-minute things […]
Source “At last!” she breathed, with a smile. I looked around my house this morning and saw the detritus of the weekend lying wherever it was dropped. There was a good deal of it too but today, it didn’t faze me. The rattle and hum of the washing machine working its way through the first […]
There are many things I love about blogging but in my opinion, one of the BEST things about it are the people you get to meet. It’s just fantastic. I have had the pleasure of meeting some amazing women (and the odd man) over the years I’ve been in cyber space. There’s definitely something to be said […]
School holidays. Teenage boys. More free time than they know what to do with. This combination of factors is almost ALWAYS guaranteed to produce a ‘Seriously???’ moment. I’ll elaborate, shall I? Son #2 arrives home from a sleepover at a friends house. He’s wearing a cap but for some reason seems rather loathe to take […]
[Image: from Apple.com] This post almost didn’t make it online today. I am forever grateful to the incredibly calm and capable Daniel at my local Apple store. All thanks must go to him. His sense of ‘can-do’ was very soothing to my frazzled nerves today. I’ve only had my MacBook Pro for a mere three […]
[Picture: Google Images] I am one of the last of the big time gamblers. NOT. The ten bucks I usually spend on The Melbourne Cup in November is the full extent of gambling I ever do. And that’s more about having a bit of fun with friends in Cup Lunch sweep then any desire to […]
I’ve always been a small-town girl. I like to think it’s the permanent imprint of New Zealand sending my heart a little reminder of where I came from every now and then. So I guess it must seem odd that this small-town girl lives in the bustling city – albeit in the heart of suburbia […]
Oh help me, God. I spent the last afternoon of child-free bliss (school holidays are now officially on) doing a bit of shopping. More specifically some clothes shopping – for me – something I haven’t done in a long time. Tomorrow night I’m going out with the girls so I thought I’d head on up to […]
This is what Relaxed Man looks like: Note the three day growth and the ease with which he is smiling. There’s no stress there, baby. Yes, our Provider is back, filled with tales of fishing adventure and life with 11 other blokes out on the open seas. From all accounts the fishing was fantastic, […]
It’s Sunday morning and I’m up already, showered, dressed and breakfasted. And all before 7.30am. This, I might add, is a VERY rare occurrence for a Sunday. The ONE day I get to sleep in. The reason for this? We have Son#2’s rugby presentation day at 10am but first, I have to drive for an […]
Hi, I’m Sarah!
Former wild-child of the 80’s, classic rock fan and loyal friend to a particularly awesome group of people. Forever planning to write more. Fervently wishes she lived at the beach. Loves the mighty All Blacks. Rather partial to a cheeky glass of red.
