Current Shame - Inducing Guilty Pleasure: Drinking chocolate milk... every day! Eating Skittles and Starbursts too. Sugary goodness.


Current Colour: Green


Current Drink: Water. Chocolate milk.


Current Food: This week my dinner menu includes lamb, meatloaf, spaghetti & meatballs, chicken kebabs and schnitzels. Also, my sister introduced me to ‘Cheesybite’ yesterday and it was actually nice. Shock horror!


Current Favourite Show: An Idiot Abroad. Have been watching Nat Geo Wild as well. After watching a documentary on Friday night titled ‘Monster Fish’, I am convinced jellyfish are aliens. They will outlive us all!

Current Wish list: A kitchen and 4 bathroom renovation project completed before Xmas? Yeah I know, I don’t think so...


Current Needs: More hours in the day? Also, Strata to hurry up and FIX the air con system in our whole building which has been out for a week already. Another week of no air con predicted, blergh.


Current Triumphs: Abi is going to the toilet on her potty nearly every day now. Slowly and steadily getting there.

Current Bane(s) of my Existence: Abi chewing through her dummies. I know she doesn’t even need them anymore, and I plan to go COLD TURKEY very soon in 'Operation Bye Bye Dummy'. In the meantime, I am buying new dummies every week. Gah!


Current Celebrity Crush: Jon Hamm, star of Mad Men. He is a god.

Current Indulgence: Having a lie down most afternoons when Abi has her day nap. It’s a nice, quiet time for me and I read too. I love it.


Current #1 Blessing: Family.


Current Slang or Saying: Totes Magotes (From the movie ‘I Love You Man’). James and I say this all the time. It’s still not old yet. YET!

Current Outfit: Green Gap V-Neck tee, Black Gap Jersey skirt.


Current Excitement: 7 weeks till Christmas. Getting the KEYS to our new house next week. Cannot wait to start knocking down walls and ripping up tiles. My Dad turning 60 next week, huge family celebration to follow.

Current Mood: Nervous about the renovation. Excited to move to the suburbs soon. Tired, just thinking about starting my Christmas shopping!
