Hi! 👋 Here I am, gearing up for yet another big surgery next week. I had easily put it out of my mind, but now it’s only a few days away I’m starting to unravel a bit. I’ll be fine though! It’s just always a lot. I’m too busy and…

I’m going to be a Grandma. I know?! What the? Yep, my big boy and his partner are having a bubba. What a joy and a blessing. We’re all so excited. Due early March 2023. Life is a wild ride. I certainly didn’t think I’d be a Grandma at 45,…

If you come here often you’ll be sick of me banging on about myself and my dreary health struggles… but I promise I am not being a downer today. No more of that happening here in my little house in Wagga Wagga. I am waking up every day feeling happier…
