The show went reasonably well, but perhaps not as well as it should have.
Let’s start with the bad things:
I hadn’t expected the first day to be so busy and despite all the months of preparation beforehand, I was ill-prepared. I had patterns that still hadn’t been packaged for hanging on the display unit, I had [...]

I am completely exhausted and stressed and I can’t even begin to describe what an awful 2 weeks these past 14 days have been. On most days we have been living by the seat of our pants, living hour by hour. We’ve been trying to juggle packing and moving furniture into the storage unit with [...]

For the past 3 days Tim has been doing induction training at Australia Post. The poor thing has a cold at the moment so it is really taking a toll on him working 4 8 hour days in a row. He will be a bicycle postie. He brought his uniform home yesterday. He’s jealous of [...]

As I mentioned in my previous post, I left my drivers licence at home today. I don’t normally leave my drivers licence at home, normally I keep it in my purse. But I took it out of my purse yesterday because Tim and I went for a ride on our motorbikes. I usually put my [...]

My mobile phone contract has recently expired and with the i-phone having recently been released in Australia I thought it a great opportunity to get an i-phone. Ever since they came out in the States a year ago I wanted one.
So for the past week I have been trying to purchase an i-phone from Telstra. [...]
