One of the first posties that I met on the boards was Doris Chua. She has many blogs, and a lot of interesting tips for people who run their own business. I keep forgetting to RSS feed her business blog.
It was interesting to read on her personal blog that the five second rule is actually [...]

It’s been a busy few days. There’s been some interesting munchkin moments, and some major munchkin meltdowns too. He’s getting very frustrated lately because he can walk but that just seems to mean there are so many more places he can’t go. He’s taken to hiding under his crib if he doesn’t get his way. [...]

I missed last weeks (and the week before too I think) because we’ve been insanely busy. Last week was the baptism and with everthing else I left things too late to catch up. So, I wanted to make sure I got todays done before I headed off into the real world.
Once again my son decided [...]

We just got back from the pediatrician for the munchkin’s year old check-up. He had two shots, and was a trooper. He had a long conversation with our pediatrician while the doctor was writing up for some bloodwork and things. I’m not sure what about, but they were entertaining each other. He’s 32 inches tall [...]

It’s amazing to think where we were this time last year. We’d been in the hospital for fourteen hours because we’d been scheduled for an induction. My water had broken. We were trying to get the epidural. My Mum and husband had gone down to get food from the hospital cafeteria, and we were hoping [...]

I was tagged by Cecile to write about habits that have made me successful.
My first thought on this was: “What? Me? I’m not successful!” but that is one of my self esteem problems. I’m constantly downgrading myself.
So I would say the first success thing I have to come to is not listening to that little [...]

Firstly because the appropriate props must be given to the cake that was made. I cannot take credit for this at all. This amazing piece of art was kindly made for us by a friend of ours, who is now being dubbed “The Cake Goddess”. we have another friend who is “The Pie Goddess” but [...]

I hate colds. They make you feel horrible in a way no other medical ailment can quite manage. I’ve had one of the past three days, and I feel absolutely awful. There’s no other way to describe it. Today at least I can finally breathe a bit better, but I don’t feel a hundred percent, [...]

The past few days have been so crazy around here. Saturday we had the munchkin’s birthday party, so I’ve spent the few days before that cleaning and reorganizing, back and forth to various stores to make sure I had enough essentials, and then yesterday we had his baptism at my in-laws house. To cap that [...]

When I was growing up in England we had a TV show that my family would watch regularly. It was called “Watchdog” and would bring to the public’s attention products and services which were unsafe or scams that hadn’t been recalled and needed to be.
My parents passed along to me as I was growing up [...]
