• “You Owe Me”

  I love Church, me. I love going because even just being in the building makes me feel at ease. I love listening to the Sermons, because I always learn something that’s really important. One Sermon in the past talked about us all being sauce bottles and that we wouldn’t know what we were really like […]

  It’s blessed my heart to read so many responses and see the same line in so many blogger’s posts: “…As a procrastinator…”. It’s made me feel so much better because it’s not just me! Hahahahaha. So good. The Cons: It causes me great anxiety to know something needs to be done and that I need […]

• #Bloganuary – What’s my dream job?

  What’s your dream job? My whole life, I’ve wanted to be a Kindergarten Teacher. I love children and even when I was a little girl, I’d set my bedroom up as a classroom and teach younger children everything I knew, bless my heart. As a teen, I was always involved with kids clubs and after-school […]

• Bloganuary – A smell or scent that brings up a memory

  Woah. What a great writing prompt! I could literally write for hours about scents and the powerful way they transport me back in time to a particular event in my life. For the sake of your poor eyes, I’ll stick to just a few. The heady scent of rain on hot bitumen is one of […]

• Bloganuary – What is your preferred mode of transport?

  OMG Car. Every time. I love roadtrips and have sooo many memories of going somewhere new with a car full of people I love. Dad took us all around the East of Australia when we were much younger. He and Mom took turns driving a bright orange Toyota with 4 seats and a ‘tray’ attached […]

• Bloganuary – If you had a million US dollars, how would you spend it?

  I don’t remember if it was a MILLION or a BILLION dollars – and there’s obviously a HUGE difference there (ahahahahaa!) but for now, let’s go with the ‘smaller’ amount so I don’t have an anxiety attack. Haha. What I would do with a MILLION US DOLLARS – About 2 Million Aussie dollars – is […]

  #bloganuary #bloganuary11 #bloganuary2023 #Housechores #moppingsucks #sweeping #damnit Chores, you say? Well. This ALL depends on how my mental health is tracking, really.

• Bloganuary – How do you define success?

  This one’s a tricky question because I immediately think of wealth as a sign of success. I think of power in terms of what a person can do at any time they want to as a success – which are pretty much powered by wealth. But what is success really? I would define these as […]
