Nice Girls Do Too!! Can we stop making lists of things nice girls do and don’t do? I am more than a mother. You are more than a teacher. Your neighbor is more than a fabulous gardener. We are all whole people, and we all do all of the things. I say we should stop…
While we may think that it’s the big issues in our relationships that define how we are together, it’s often the simple gestures that make a big difference in your marriage. The little things add up, and when they happen each day (or don’t happen) this can lead to big and lasting changes. Both positive…
I’m addicted to social media as much as the next person. I even run a whole business based on social media just so I can justify spending so much time on it (okay, maybe not just for that purpose but still… you get my point). But there are sometimes when you might start to see…
I’m called a lot of things. A mum, a wife, a woman, a business owner, a Paramedic, a sister, a daughter, a friend, and a whole heap more (some not so nice…), but there is one thing I loathe being called… a Mumpreneur. Over the last decade or so we have seen this massive shift…
Recently, we’ve been hanging out with some couples from our neighborhood and I LOVE IT! A couple of weeks ago, after a particularly fun evening, my hubby turned to me and asked me if I felt guilty about my new friends. Funny how he nailed it. For whatever reason, the day after that particularly fun…
Whether you’re saving for a holiday or something special, or if you’re just wanting to reign in the spending a little bit, there are so many ways to save money without feeling like you’re missing out. You don’t have to start eating tuna and beans for every meal and turning off all the lights to…
Gay marriage is a hot topic in Australia at the moment and in many countries around the world. At present, gay marriage isn’t legal in Australia, and to be honest I’m a little ashamed. We live in a country with free healthcare, incredible standards of living, one of the most accepting countries of multicultural backgrounds…
While I love my morning coffee like a junkie loves crack (we have a special relationship), I do try to mix things up a little sometimes and will throw a green smoothie into the mix. Particularly if I know I’m going to have a rough day trying to get my health fix in. At least…
We all judge others. It’s a natural thing to do. Even if we’re incredibly humble in many areas, we all get judgy about certain things. Judging people for being too judgy? Also judgy. I’m not sure we can help it, even if we try really hard not to do it. But we seriously have got…
I love to snack… a lot. Which means it’s also very easy for me to grab something not so healthy to snack on because food is awesome and I love eating it. After my son was born and I was hungry all the darn time, I would snack on granola to keep myself satisfied. It…
