When Rudi and I first moved in together I had a 54cm standard TV. This suited me just fine, but after a few years Rudi started hankering to get a flat screen TV. A bigger TV. I said no for quite some time. Then one day after we had voted in the elections and were [...]
My Evil Mother has been at it again. Actually…she never stopped, but she is out in full force. Just two weeks ago she swindled about two grand out of my grandmother. She basically made her go out and buy groceries for their household. After that my grandmother swore she was done with her. She took [...]
We had a fabulous weekend! On Saturday morning I woke up and knew it was going to be a lovely day, so I took advantage of the good weather to do some washing (how OLD am I getting?!). It took me ages to clean the kitchen and once that was done I helped Rudi [...]
On Thursday 17 November it was the one year anniversary of my grandfather’s passing. Leading up to the day I was completely fine and I made plans with my grandmother and aunt to go out for breakfast to commemorate the day. When I woke up the morning I updated and dedicated my status on various [...]

On Friday we had our team building event for work. We went out to Melkbos to go paintballing. I was not really keen on participating since I remember having HUGE bruises from the last time we went. I decided to suck it up and play along though, since it isn’t something I would normally go [...]
On Friday we rushed to get finished at home so that we could get on the road and not arrive in Swellendam too late. We managed start driving around 19:00 after filling up and buying some KFC for dinner. The ride there felt very long and I could not WAIT to arrive. The fact that [...]
We decided on Monday that we will be going through to Heidelberg this weekend to attend the funeral for Boogaloo’s mom. I knew her and Boogaloo has been at my side during some very hard times and I feel like it is the least I can do. I’d like to support him. We’ll be leaving [...]
