Curled up on the couch with a good book is one of my favourite places to be. That said, I can't remember the last time I actually got to sit uninterrupted and read. Usually, I am grabbing a couple of pages here and there as I always find something else I could / should be doing. So when we headed away for the weekend recently the first thing I packed was my copy of 'Five Days Left', as I knew naptime was my golden uninterrupted opportunity. Five Days Left is a 'heart breaking and yet … [Read more...]
My Goals ~ 2015
I am not one for resolutions. I feel you make them in the heat of the festive moment at 12.01am on January 1st without giving them much thought.

A place where I share bits of … [Read more...]

…And Schumi Makes Five
Earlier this week I shared with you our 'Mini Family Break' and our real reason behind having one (not that we needed a reason, of course) was to bring home our fur baby Schumi. We are officially a family of 5 (three humans and two fur babies). Schumi is a labradoodle and is the cutest bundle of chocolate brown fluff you have ever seen. He is named after legendary Formula One Racing Car driver Michael Schumacher (Steve is a HUGE fan) and brings the total number of boys in household to four - … [Read more...]
