As my family has grown, so have our needs. We are now a family of five: my husband, myself and our three young children. Up until now we’ve all shared the one bathroom but this has proven very difficult for the past year. After some lengthy discussions with my husband, we’ve agreed it’s time for …
Day two of my book tour is done! That was definitely a more exciting and memorable day than yesterday. I didn’t actually write anything about yesterday, so I suppose I should give a quick summary. Basically, I went to the biggest book stores in Carrum Downs and Chelsea, and signed a lot of books, then …
Working from home is fantastic. I love it. I very rarely even actually work from home either. I’m either in the park with my children playing and my laptop out, or in the car making work calls and driving to visit my parents. It’s given me so much more flexibility and it had never come …
I’m a real estate agent in Melbourne’s South East suburbs and I’ve been a part of the industry for the last thirty years. I’m one of the best in the business and I pride myself on getting the best selling price for my clients. My current client is looking to sell their family home so …
I’m in a band with three of my mates. I wouldn’t say we’re successful, but I think we’re slowly paving the way to become a pretty well known band amongst the locals in Sydney, and then hopefully we’ll make our way nationwide. We’ve been practising in my garage for the last six years; since the …
I’m building a rocket ship because I want to go to the moon. I’ve had just about enough of this silly world with its mobile phones and video games. Kids these days have no respect and they don’t appreciate hard work. So I’ll go and build my own society on the moon, one where elders …
Daylight savings offers nothing but false promises and dashed hopes. It gets you into this state of mind where the days go on forever – you can get home from work and go for a two-hour surf, then make a leisurely dinner and eat it in the backyard before the sun is halfway set. Then, …
I am so hungry. I only ate four hours ago, so it doesn’t make sense to why I’m absolutely starving, but I am and it’s making it hard to concentrate on what my mechanic is saying. I’ve just arrived at the car mechanic in Hawthorn to pick up my car on my lunch break. He’s …
My daughter has a lot of interests that I didn’t expect her to have. As a traditionally feminine woman, I expected my daughter to be the same. She was around two years old when I realised she was very different from myself. Where I was playing with dolls and stealing my mother’s makeup, she was …
Oxygen: are we getting enough? Hey, don’t look at me for answers. That was the hot topic at tonight’s P&C meeting at Harry’s school. Marcia Maxwell-Higgins brought it up, being fresh from a ‘health cruise’ that seemingly consisted of being on a boat with a range of the latest health and wellness technologies. By the …
