Tweaking my Systems

I’ve kept a journal since I was 7. From the age of 13, I also kept a planner. I’m not sure when I started also carrying a notebook &/or sketchbook with me everywhere, but it was sometime before I turned 19.  Without fully admitting to my current age, let’s just say it’s been a long […]

Unexpected Loss

My generation seems to be attending more funerals than weddings, at a time where it should still be the other way around.  Even as a wedding photographer I seem to be attending more funerals than weddings, which is frightening. This week alone, my circle has had two very unexpected losses.  One of these gorgeous women […]

Lego is the abbreviation of two Danish words, “Leg godt,” meaning “play well.” Certainly can’t argue with that when it comes to most well-known product to come out of their factories since they launched the business in 1932. It’s synonymous with childhood. It’s a brand, and product, that is known, loved, and respected the world […]

One Friday in late May, I decided we were buying ourselves some new LEGO. Things have been hard of late, & we needed something light & silly to break the gloom. It was money that we really couldn’t afford to spare, but it was justifiable in the circumstances. The LEGO that my brother & I […]

The Chaos of Moving House

This has been the most convoluted & long-winded move I’ve made since changing country/city… & I’m not entirely sure even those times were this complex. Every spanner we could have been thrown, has been! The new house has required so much cleaning (seriously…. 4 bottles of Sugar Soap, plus oven cleaner, Ajax, Finish, Jif, Dettol, […]

>> Read Day One << I sat, SES uniform ready & bag packed, waiting for our deployment orders to come out. We’d been stood down Tuesday night (Wednesday morning) at 1am, after a long day of searching for Sam through yards & houses. We had to have a set amount of time for sleep for […]

Depression vs Tomorrow

I’ve spent the last few hours crying, & searching for answers, for forgiveness, & for words. I wanted to write something lovely. Instead I’m going for whatever I can manage. Not everyone who suffers will ask for help. Physical & emotional suffering are both as real as each other, while not as obvious. Some people […]

The Power of Social Networking

Awesome things happen when you cross Social Media with a close knit community who act more like a small town than a suburb. Yesterday, I posted that we were greatly missing our travel mascot, Sharlene the Emu. Last night, we had her back! I posted a photo of her to Instagram, with where we last […]

Many of you may have seen Sharlene the Emu pop up in my photos before. She’s missing & we’re really hoping that whomever currently has her will read this & bring her home.  We’ll even come & collect her – we don’t mind!  We just want her back. To any of you who were out […]

Today is Remembrance Day. The date marks the anniversary of the armistice that ended WW1. Every year, at 11am on the 11th day of the 11th month, the people of Australia take a minute of silence to remember those who suffered or died in war & armed conflict. This year is the 95th anniversary of […]

I levelled up just recently & it was a rather fantastic celebration. That said, it wasn’t without a lot of planning…. with more than a few that fell through. So, I was turning 30. It needed to be big. I figured with a big round number like that, why not throw a Timelords Ball? Have […]

December was crazy – extra hours at work, late night shifts, Christmas shopping, packing, moving house…. Yes.  Moving house.  In December.  Such timing!!  Oh so very worth it though…. See? This is the view from the top of the house driveway.  That large shed you see is my workshop.  It has a large storeroom, chalkboards, […]

This morning I lost my best friend to cancer.  He couldn’t talk to me about it.  He didn’t often complain at all, but he would sit with me &, towards the end would, cry softly – & yet never ask for a thing.  He was always there for me first.  Never himself.  He always sat […]

So I quite possibly just did the worst thing yesterday…. I fell in love with a pair of shoes.  I know, it’s not at all surprising that I’m looking at shoes considering the book I’m writing…. but normally I can browse quite safely with a good bonus to my will save.  To be honest, I […]
