When you enter into the blogging world it really is like how Fat Mum Slim says it "going down the rabbit hole". You can get lost and spend hours reading through fellow blogs, clicking through their blog roll list and getting deeper and deeper into the world of posts and updates. 

I've always enjoyed reading and writing. Growing up I was what you would consider a "bookworm" with my head always in some novel, escaping into the world on the pages. 

I loved jotting down ideas, a bit of poetry and stories and really got into it about 10years ago. Then kids happened. Then working full time happened. A mortgage. And I stopped.

My little outlet took a back seat while I addressed Ethan's autism diagnosis when he was 2 years old and life got in the way.

And years went past - not really having much time to scratch myself and poof! 10 years just like that!

Earlier this year, i started my "rabbit hole" journey and i discovered so many women out there that wrote about their lives, the good, the bad, the hillarious and the ugly. 

I loved their honesty, information and their humour - and my blogging journey began. 

With 40 hour work weeks, running a house and being the fabulous chick that I am - I still don't have much time - but i made a committment to myself to start this little blog and see where it would go.

Do you want to go down the rabbit hole?

I promise you - once you start, it will be hard to stop.

My top favourite blogs that I am totally addicted to! 

Edenland - raw, real, honest, Eden takes you on her journey of love, loss, depression, dealing with addiction and family life. She even spent a day with Prime Minister Julia Gillard. One of my fav posts is her take on being a mummy blogger here.

Fat Mum Slim - who recently presented at the #pbevent for bloggers in QLD is one of the queens of blogging and has been blogging before it was popular. Chantelle's site is gorgeous with lots of tips and tricks on blogging, living, looking after her girls and you have got to check out her app the she recently released Little Moments App - you'll love using this for taking gorgeous pics!

The Little Mumma - a gorgeous tiny lady who says it like it is! Her journey and honesty in living and raising her little ones is like she has read my mind at times! Check out Angie's post letter to her vagina dear vagina - i was laughing and crying at the same time!

Woogs World - this feisty lady who can make even the most mundane activities of day to day life sound fasinating is one of my favourite ladies to follow - she is hillarious! I mean really, who can make a post about Fridges interesting? Real Fridges

So grab a cuppa or a wino and click through to these gorgeous ladies blogs - I assure you, you will not be disappointed.

I had a hysterectomy at 37 years of age

 This coming Wednesday will mark four weeks since my hysterectomy. It has been a long journey coming – this hysterectomy and with all the ailments that I had experienced over the last 20 years, including low grade cervical cancer, I could not have been happier seeing my uterus ripped out and put in the bin. That said, I am grateful that these organs allowed me to birth my two sons. They are the joys and absolute headaches of my life. I would (like most mothers I am sure) take a bullet for them and they always know that sanctuary of any sort will always be home for them. But a hysterectomy at 37 you say? Yes, I do admit that Google will tell you that this surgery is quite early in my life, but after two decades of agony, constant pain, bloating to the size of looking like I am six months pregnant and the fact that I had finished have all the children that I desired, it really was a no brainer. We live in rural Victoria. Our main town, Mildura has a hospital, and I was aware that ...

Do not write blog post when you have had a couple of wines

 It's been a bad day.  Not a travesty, but a day of anxiety, overload of emotions, countless puffs from many a ciggies and all in all just a bleh.  Where the fuck has 2020 gone? How did we get from free world to lockdown and oppressions and wearing masks???? I  burnt my 2020 planner, close with my 2020 diary, because why the fuck, hey? Let's just write this year off as a mistake on a humanity scale and start fresh in 2021.  Funnily enough, I bought a $4 2021 diary. So there may be hope. My beloved is struggling. Which  means that I am struggling, Seeing him in pain, no sleep, swelling joint agony, depression and all the things that entail chronic illness. I'm at a loss as to how to help him, I just sit and be with him and tell him every day that i will be by his side till the rest of my days.  At least 2020 has shown us this: What actually is important in our life, What actually matters, like really really matters,  The latest model car o...

Bali - I'll see you soon..

   The last three weeks have been mentally and physically tiring. We have slogged through our kitchen renovations and have now come to the pointy end of it all with splash-back tiles, flooring and bench-tops left to complete. Working full time and then staying up till well past midnight every night has been exhausting! But no pain, no gain they say and my goodness the reward speaks for itself!    Behold! 90% finished Kitchen! Steve has a "big" birthday coming up and I really wanted to celebrate it with him in style. So what better place to do that than our favourite place to visit, Bali.  There truly is something about the place that has captivated me. All around me when I'm there, I am surrounded by culture, tradition, beauty, history - every time I visit a little piece of me stays there. {it's probably one of the reasons I keep wanted to come back} I won't go all " Eat,Pray, Love" on you though. As the first thing I love to do when I land in Ba...
