I don’t know about the rest of you, but when we have a real estate inspection I have a horrible habit of stuffing things into the closet with the promise of sorting it later. Of course I never do so when the next inspection comes more stuff has to be jammed in on top of [...]
This weeks de-clutter challenge
February 12, 2012 By 1 Comment
I have a theory that my brother can keep his house clean so easily because he only owns three things. I, on the other hand, am allergic to housework and own fifty-million things. Over the past few months I’ve been working really hard on slimming down our possessions. Weeding out the things that we really [...]
V-day crafts for kids to make
February 9, 2012 By Leave a Comment
Naughty Daddy and I got married on valentines day. No, not because we’re hopelessly romantic but because we’re cheap. That year v-day was a Friday and everything wedding related is cheaper on Fridays. Now, even though it’s our anniversary, we still don’t really “do” v-day, what can I say? I’m just not a romantic kind [...]
Sensory play: packing peanuts
February 7, 2012 By Leave a Comment
Sensory boxes are a bit hit and miss in our house. Both girls have their own sensory quirks so sometimes I’ll bring out a box that just doesn’t go over well for one reason or another. Yesterday Abi had an absolute ball with the packing peanuts I’ve had stored in the garage for a while [...]

Since we’ve been home [...]
Exploiting their own kids?
January 13, 2012 By 2 Comments
As previously discussed, there’s a good chance that I’m a little slow because I always seem to notice things months after other people. Case in point, I’ve only just noticed that the children who appear on Baby Antonio’s Circus and Dorothy the Dinosaur are all, blue Wiggle, Anthony Field’s own children. For a long time [...]

Mostly because I was bored today I created a new digital illustration. You may download and print, but not claim it as your own work or offer it for download from your site. Download the 10×12 inch version (intended to be printed at a photolab) | A4 sized version (for printing at home)
Happiness, the purpose of life
January 11, 2012 By Leave a Comment
Over the past couple of days, okay a week, I’ve been trying to figure out what I should write in my first post for the year. Nothing has come to mind which I think is kind of ironic seeing as I’ve been on bloggy holiday and should be coming back to things feeling fresh and [...]
