Blogging: why bother?

The last week has been action-packed, but restorative. I enjoyed a child-free day on Monday that saw our tax finally completed for 2011 which I celebrated by taking myself off for a solo movie date to see the Descendants (loved!). It was around that time that the raining began, and it’s been raining without much [...]

Vlog numero uno: a public announcement

October 12, 2011

So, this is my first ever vlog. Decided that this news was worthy of getting on the vlogging bandwagon and revealing my speaking self to the Internets. Will it happen again? Possibly not … especially if I can’t rectify whatever webcam issue makes it seem like I’m sitting among a bad 80s disco strobe. Apologies [...]

I’ve been having an unofficial bloggy hiatus. Those who have been following me for awhile may have noticed that I do this from time to time.

It’s about time I gave myself a blog-based pep up. Eye of the tiger is blasting on my in-mind audio system … BAM BAM-BAM-BAM You see, I’m one of these people that gives up a little too easily. Or moulds themselves to make others more comfortable, while I’m so twisted and bent out of shape [...]

I really haven’t mastered this whole art of self promotion and I’m starting to think that in the blog world that is the equivalent of an ‘epic fail’ … whatever that means! So forgive me as I muddle through this … I have a new fancy looking blog that is appearing on The Road Ahead [...]

You know that funny, tickling feeling that runs up your spine when you’re close to something big, something potentially life changing? I had that more than once on the weekend, where I was one of more than 150 bloggers taking part in the inaugural Aussie Bloggers Conference in Sydney. I set off on Friday morning, [...]

When sharing is not caring

March 17, 2011

Well it’s been the week from hell … and I’m finally emerging out of the heat just in time to pack and get myself on a plane to Sydney tomorrow for the Aus Blog Conference. It all started innocently enough, last Wednesday the boy was eating dinner and finalised proceedings with a monster chuck. The [...]
