Mr.T and I, we love garage sales. I don’t know why, but we love other people’s junk.
Ok, it’s really Mr.T who loves finding retro stuff, and buying them at way below cost. He has brought back a really 80s alarm clock and a travelling iron. Believe it or not, but he actually thought the travelling [...]

You know what I long for?
A nap in the afternoon. Just a nap. But ever since I became a mom, I remember how many times I managed to catch 40 winks. My first trimester with No.2. I was dead tired and No.1 was quietly playing by himself, I just told him I’d be napping for [...]

Wow.
That is such a hard thing to do. Learning how to forgive someone who probably doesn’t know how much they’ve hurt you. The extend of pain you’ve going through.
Forgiving doesn’t mean I should forget. Right? But if one doesn’t forget, then how will one forgive?
Forgiving doesn’t diminsh the hurt, right? One still feels the pain?
Apparently, [...]

Every week, No.1 has a spelling test. It happens at the end of the week, so, on Monday, he’ll bring back a list, and we’ll go through it together. Every night.
It’s pretty cool. Initially, he was given really easy lists..and he was always excited that he knew how to spell them. Then, late last term, [...]

I made a friend, a virtual friend a whiles back.
She works for a pet supplies company, now. I didn’t realise that we would through time, and internet, somehow develop a real friendship. She has been there for me, when I was really feeling like crap. She’s so cute and so much younger than me, which [...]

Now, my kids and I, we love our libraries. I guess it’s for different reasons.
For each and everyone of us.
For me, I get to read any book and every book I want. If one library doesn’t have the book I want, they can order it in for me. For a very small fee, but hey! [...]

Now, this is the second time I’ve done it. It’s so simple. I don’t know why I bother with going to the hairdressers/saloon!
Now, of course, you gotta have hair like Lady Godiva.
Well, I am between Lady Godiva and Ozzy Osborne, leaning heavily towards the Ozzy Osborne side. Heh…
So, I’ve got hair covering my boobies… and [...]

The weather in Melbourne has been undeniably unpredictable. I mean, I knew that we always had unpredictable weather, but when Autumn came rolling by, it felt like it was in the middle of Winter! It was that cold! In fact, the coldest day was just last week, about 0deg celcius! Isn’t that crazy? I even [...]

Today.. I renewed my car rego. Now, I am shameless when it comes to getting discounts. I knew that car rego renewals are discounted for people who hold health care cards.
Me! Me! As she jumps up and down.
Shameless.
I happily queued up and waited to pay. Guy at the counter checks my health care card. On [...]

Honestly, there shouldn’t just be one day. It should be once every month. Ok, make that a few days each month. Celebrating it everyday would be overkill and lose it’s importance. Heh..
But that being said, it’s coming. I’ve looked through Gemz N Gold again, yes. just to look at their affordable range of jewelry. I [...]
