It’s been a while since I wrote about my ankle specifically.
It has now been about 6 weeks since the last operation and since then things have improved dramatically. I have a lot more flexibility in my ankle and foot and it generally feels quite good. On really cold days I am aware of my ankle [...]

I am feeling so overwhelmed at the moment – in both good and not so good ways.
The not so good ways – there are so many things happening in the world that I am quite powerless to change – global warming, wars all over the place, poverty, starvation, all the big things..
Then there are the [...]

Yeah, my Mixtape zine has finally arrived. I found out about it whilst reading some other blogs – particularly and specifically Meet me at Mikes. I can’t wait to read it – now I just need for the little one to go back to sleep so I can curl up on the sofa and read!! [...]

Well, I had a really lovely weekend – surprisingly so…
Hubby went to Sydney for the weekend – leaving Daina and I and Claude home alone. We would have loved to have gone to Sydney – but the logistics of travelling with an 8 month old along the goats track known as the Pacific Highway – [...]

I checked the pattern sheet and this pattern was in issue 59 vol9 issue 4 of Homespun Magazine here in Australia.
To try and get old copies of the magazine I would suggest contacting the magazine directly [...]

What a weekend we have had!
Little Miss Daina (who is just on 8 months now!)started crawling on Friday! Yay!! It’s so cute watching her move! And it’s definitely her preferred mode of transport already. And on top of that she’s already trying to stand now. She has been doing a position which is kind of [...]

Usually the post is nothing very exciting – bills usually. Nothing to rave about. And no swap packages – coz I’m not in one of those… But today there were 2 little parcels. One from Wee Wonderfuls and the other from Busy Thimbles
The contents of the packages:
So I’m going to have a little bit of [...]

There are some things that I’m a bit behind the eight ball on – and sometimes technology is one of them!
I can do a lot of things – but some of the Web2.0 stuff has me baffled.
Over the last few months, I’ve been marking as favourites a lot of blogs – but was finding it [...]

Daina was being quite playful this afternoon and seemed to be enjoying upstairs in the main bedroom. She can tripod, sit up by herself and also has the art of clapping. Ignore the ‘how’ sounds, that is hubby making his favourite imitation Daina sound. (PS Daina is now nearly 8 months old!)
