Mom Guilt and How To Ditch It
It is time to ditch the mom guilt! We all feel it but it doesn’t help us and is often misplaced.
Let’s talk about WAXING!
A while ago I listed to an audio book by Gloria Steinem. It was her memoirs and I thoroughly loved it. She mentions at one point how she doesn’t shave her legs or her underarms and everyone now and then she will wear a sleeveless shirt and how absolutely liberating it is to not care […]
Lessons learnt from my 4 year old
Life hand out lessons everywhere doesn’t it. If we are open to them, we can learn something all the time. Having children is in itself a constant case of learning isn’t it? When you have a fiery little person, they often force you to learn lessons whether you want to or not. Emma may be […]
Where do I begin
The time now is 3h45 on Monday afternoon and I have absolutely no idea where my day went. Yes of course I know where I was and what I did but it all went by in the blink of an eye! I suppose it’s true what they say that time flies when you are having […]
When I have nothing to say but I must speak
Here we are Thursday the 22 February already. I lost a few days this week and was convinced yesterday was Monday, so much so when Jane said goodbye yesterday and that she would see me on Friday I argued with her and said NO I will see you on Wednesday! Good news I suppose that […]
I am overweight and that’s ok!
I have wanted to write this post for months and months, actually I think longer. It started when I saw Megan share all her body positive posts. I knew I had a story to tell but I just couldn’t get the words out. So the post has just swum around in my head for ages, […]

It has taken me a while to formulate a plan of sorts for the year ahead. I planned January pretty well but it is always easy to plan January. I was struggling with the other 11 months though and also just couldn’t figure out my word of the year. A lot of the people I […]
Keeping it real – when you want them all to just shut up.
Right moms, lets be real for a moment. We have all had those moments where we just want them all to SHUT UP! Yes, I know shut up is a bad word. I do try to avoid tell my children to shut up, of course I do because I do try to be a good […]
I can see you, can you see me?
I have been quiet around these parts the last few days! To be honest, I have been in a bit of a weird space and I can’t figure it out which is making it a little more frustrating. A friend of mine may have hit the nail on the head this morning though. She said […]
The Three Year Old is Tiring
I don’t think I have been this tired since those early newborn days. It is a tired that gets into your bones and wears you out completely. This time though, I can’t “blame” a newborn, it is entirely of my own doing. My life motto includes a lot of “winging it” which works for me […]
