There’s a reason why, after opening and naming this post I had to go and lay down for a little while. It’s the same reason why I haven’t had my usual amount of patiences and at least part of the reason I haven’t blogged much recently. I keep forgetting to take my antidepressants. They live [...]
Looking to the new year
December 28, 2011 By 4 Comments
Last year I decided that 2011 was going to be my year. I was going to build my writing career and really make it happen. It didn’t. No matter how hard I pushed or what I did, I just couldn’t figure it out. All that I ended up walking about 2011–writing wise–is hurt feelings at [...]
Do what you love
December 5, 2011 By 2 Comments
I’m feeling a little random today. Actually, not really in the mood to blog at all, but this afternoon I came across a quote that inspired me. Not more than a spark of inspiration mind you so this post may not be particularly long, but it needed to be said so it stops running through [...]
That’s Pinteresting: Dr Who
December 4, 2011 By 4 Comments
Just for the fun of it I thought I’d let my geek hang out and admit that I love Dr Who. I didn’t used it. In fact, as a child I had nightmares about Tom Baker and the Daleks – but then I also had nightmares about Lost in Space and the Princess Bride so [...]

October 25, 2011 By 3 Comments
To say that in the recent weeks my life has been stressful is a gross understatement. Between my kids and normal life there’s not really a lot of room left over, but in the past 10 weeks I’ve also had to squeeze in caring for my niece while she was here, followed by fighting to [...]
Motherhood: the best time of your life?
September 23, 2011 By 1 Comment
Disclosure: I received a review copy of Beyond the baby blues, by Catherine Knox, Benison O’Reilly and Seana Smith Most women I know go gaga over a newborn, not me though. My first thoughts upon seeing a mum with her fresh baby is “you poor thing, you don’t know what you’re in for”. Occasionally I’ve [...]
I’m grateful for…hackers
August 11, 2011 By 2 Comments
You may have noticed some changes around here, yeah well I got hacked. I first found out about it was when Bad Mummy was de-indexed on Google. Its still not indexed and who knows how long it’ll take for it to be searchable again. In a funny way I’m kind of grateful for it. It’s [...]

Depression update
August 10, 2011 By Leave a Comment
Yesterday morning I was all ready to tell you that, in the three months since I admitted I wasn’t coping and found my sanity in a box things had been great. Since then I’ve come to realize that’s not entirely true. Things are better, there’s absolutely no doubt, but not great, life still definitely swings [...]
