Look at me

Currently on SABC 3 we are watching the last of Oprahs shows where she is remembering memorable moments. It’s actually rather nice to be honest. Anyway last night she had Toni Morrison on and she said something that made me think. She said “when your child walks into the room how do you look at […]

Just do it

I am so over this cold weather. Even the promise of snow nearby is not cheering me up. I want to be able to sit outside with Jack and let him feel the sun and be able to take him out in one layer of clothes instead of 25. Thanks for all the positive feedback […]

Friendship

Today I had lunch with my friend Ansie. It was soooo good. Ansie and I have known each other almost 4 years which means Ansie has been with me through my divorce. She has seen me at my worst and at my best. She has seen me drunk and cry the ugly cry. She has […]

How far I have come

I have been feeling rather despondent lately. One of the Brave Girls mails that I get daily mentioned looking back to see how much you really have achieved. And then Leigh posted her 40 post and Lyndsay her 26 post so even though its not my birthday I thought I would join in. I have […]

Weekly Winners July 10-16

I managed to take quiet a lot of pics this week but these are some of my favourites. On Monday we went for a walk to the shop – it was a little to far for me but it was nice to get out 🙂 Cameron giving Jack some water – they fight over doing […]

Gratitude in the ordinary

This week has been all about the every day ordinary stuff. I am grateful for Electricity – so I can make tea as many times a day as I want, heat our room for Jack and charge my phone. My car – so I can fetch and carry my kids and get to where I […]

Even the spambots have stopped loving me

I know I haven’t been a very good blogger but a newborn will do that to you but I didn’t think you would all abandon me :-p I am not even getting spam comments any more – I really feel so unloved *sob* I am reading and commenting on your blogs as much as Jack […]

A list of 33

This post was inspired by Julia who was inspired by Marcia. What you do is make a list of things you want to do before your next birthday – you use your age as the number of things to do. They can be big things or small things 🙂 So here is my list 1. […]
