Perfectly Imperfect Me – The Last Real Life Wednesday

Posted on April 24, 2013

Real Last Wednesday - share your perfect imperfections!

I always have filthy dirty nails, no matter how hard I try to keep them clean, but at least I don’t bite them anymore. I lose my cool with the kids often, but I always apologise. I have wrinkles and pimples, it seems so unfair, but I’m taking it as a sign of youthfulness mixed […]

Real Life Wednesday – Reasons My House Will Never be in Home Beautiful Magazine

Real Life Wednesday - Why my house will never be in Home Beautiful Magazine

I used to read Home Beautiful magazine and hope that one day I would have a house like the ones on those glossy pages. It’s only quite recently that I’ve wised up and realised that a house that is livable and lived in is what I really want, not a perfectly beautiful home. But that […]

Failure – Real Life Wednesday

Posted on April 10, 2013

Fail

Sometimes life is all kinds of Fail. Yes, Fail, with a capitol ‘F’. Crafty projects – Lets make these cool gluey sun catchers… except our glue didn’t dry clear so they don’t as much catch the sun and shut it out completely. Baking – Not enough honey so lets just add a little more sugar […]

Rostered Day Off! – Real Life Wednesday

Posted on April 3, 2013

Escape

Considering the amount of hours I put in on this job, surely I am entitled to an RDO every now and then?? What about holiday pay? Sick leave? Stress leave? In a ‘perfect world’ I would be able to organise ‘me time’ every day. But I don’t live in that perfect world, and the reality […]

Have You Ever?

Real Life Wednesday

Have you ever eaten a whole packet of chocolate biscuits in one sitting because at least that way you won’t be sneaking one every day that week? Have you ever sent your kids to school with a somewhat stale bread roll for their lunch because you are pretty sure they won’t eat it anyway? Have […]

The Toddler – Real Life Wednesday

Posted on March 20, 2013

Drawing

The toddler is asking for a drink of milk and then crying because it is white. The toddler has fallen asleep face down on the floor but takes an hour to get to sleep in his bed. The toddler wants sultanas but not the ones in the packet. The toddler only wants Dad but cries […]

Random Fridge Insight – Real Life Wednesday

Posted on March 13, 2013

fridge magnets real life wednesday

Most of the time our fridge looks just like any other fridge that resides in a house full of children. It has school notices, work rosters, a prep boy’s first award, and a pizza menu. It is also covered in a range of magnets. There are letters, a few magnetic poetry words, some animals, vehicles […]

Confessions

Posted on March 6, 2013

toys

I have some confessions to make… My floor has looked like this for days and I just keep stepping over or around it. Yesterday I put my toddler in front of the TV to stop his continuous whining, and left him there for 2 hours. On Monday I bought a packet of lolly snakes (a […]
