The weekend was pretty boring, except for the fact that one of our neighbours smashed up his car on Saturday night. It looks pretty bad. At least R5 000 damage. I think more. He’s probably going to get quotes today because it’s his work car (he has his own business) and he’s going to need [...]
I had an impassioned choir practice last night. I felt moved, challenged and motivated. We have an amazing choir leader. When he conducts he is filled with emotion and you can almost feel the music through his facial expressions alone. Before I joined the choir I enjoyed watching him immensely. It’s a little more difficult [...]
I’m feeling really down today. Stepping on a scale will do that to you. I’ve been trying to eat better, replacing some of my meals with healthier options. Yes OK, not all my meals. I reckon that each meal I don’t eat junk food is a win. I couldn’t believe that I have picked up [...]
I was lying staring at the ceiling last night…I haven’t gone to bed early in a while so I struggled to fall asleep and my thoughts wandered… I thought about what I pictured my life to be like when I was a little girl. When I was 8 years old – what did I expect [...]
Happy Easter Everyone! I hope you guys all had a good long weekend. I certainly had a good long weekend, but I’m not going to braai (BBQ) again for a long time. We had a braai on Friday, Saturday, Sunday AND Monday. I’m so sick of potato salad, toss salad and garlic bread it’s not [...]
Voldemort and Boogaloo forgot to bring their camera, despite the reminders I gave them. I did, however, manage to snap a few pics with my crappy phone. Rudi and Trevlyn A sparkler in his food as promised! The waiters sang for him too! Amber has found a new spot on the stairs that she likes [...]
There is one problem in my life that is solvable, but I cannot seem to solve it. Other people solve this problem. I wouldn’t say that this problem is solved with ease, because it takes dedication, motivation, commitment and hard work. I have given up fighting the battle of the bulge. I will sulk. I [...]
I’ve recently discovered Bloglines and other types of RSS feeds. What a pleasure. I’ve always struggled to keep up with blog posts and to keep all the blogs I like bookmarked is a mission. Feedburner has made me wise to these things since I’ve started my new blog. Nothing would be cooler than to have [...]
Dear IT department I guess you think it’s funny to sneak in on a Sunday evening and mess up the application that I need to work on on Monday morning. This is the second time this month that you have decided that my Monday is going to be a shambles. Are you kidding me? You [...]
Pictured to the left is (Uncle) Steve. He thought it would be fun to try on Sarah’s leopard print sunglasses. I’m glad I managed to catch it…it was classic! Speaking of (Uncle) Steve, he actually faded quite early last night. He’s struggling to keep up with the young ones somewhat, but certainly enjoying the time [...]
