I had to get out of the house yesterday so I took a little walk with the boys up in the hills near my house. My skin graft went well, but it’s not been pretty! The graft behind my ear was pretty painful! The site of the BCC wasn’t too…

I don’t have the best history (or genes!) when it comes to skin things. In 2012 I wrote about a basal cell carcinoma I had removed here. It has reappeared bigger and nastier! Today I’m having a skin graft and I am not looking forward to it. So, basically, they’re…

This parenting gig isn’t easy is it? Nobody warned me that you’d be riding their highs and lows like they are your own. Nobody mentioned that you start a new personal journey when they start to grow up. I am living in the moment and I’m living in their emotions.…

I love a splash of colour… as you can see below! These are some photos from around my house yesterday. It was clean for a change! It’s doesn’t always look like this! 😉 We have 2 days left of the school holidays. My boys don’t go back until Wednesday. So…

The sun was shining, but it was very chilly in Canberra on the weekend! We only live about 2 and a half hours away from Canberra and it’s such an easy drive, so we spent Easter Sunday doing what my boys love – watching footy! So disappointed Storm lost. Robbed,…

Hiya! Thanks for coming by! Hope you’ve had a chance to read my new blog – Design Tribe? And check out the new online chat forum? I’ve been spending lots of time over there lately so this little bloggy has been taking a back seat 🙁 With all of this…

You all know I have 3 of the little dudes, but I’ve noticed things are changing around here… They’re growing up… derrr of course they are, but with that comes a whole new world for me! I’m losing my coolness. Big time. She’s slowly slipping away… Cruise is turning 12…

My middle kiddie has come home from school this week with 2 separate books which require ‘photos’ to be physically stuck to the pages. Not just one photo, but about 4-5 on each. And I’m in a flap about it. I don’t print my photos. I take photos daily, and…

Hello! Thanks for coming by. Phew, it’s been a hectic couple of weeks around here! Although I am not complaining… I was pondering as I was driving the other day (as you do) and realised I am SUCH a creature of habit and find them very hard to break… I…

How’s 2014 for you so far? Are you smashing it? A friend of mine said to me the other day “Katrina, I am totally smashing 2014 so far…” Love it! That was awesome to hear… I feel like I’ve got things a little bit more under control so far this…
