B.M.W.B # 12 – Oh So Simple
One of the things I am loving most about my commitment to these B.M.W.B posts is that it forces me to say yes to things that can easily be ‘put off’ for a more convenient time. The thing is when does that ‘more convenient time’ ever arise? We had a nice bubble machine that made [...]

Happy, Happy Me
This is my birthday post so if you want to skip a completely ‘me,me,me’ kind of post look away now! Today is my birthday. I like birthdays a lot and I’m especially pleased to be turning 34. Turns out 33 has been rather a large year for me what with (in some sort of chronological order): [...]
Playing Small
I had a conversation with a friend this week about dreams, ambitions, goals… In fact I seem to be having rather a few of these conversations lately – maybe it’s a season I’m coming into. We talked about some stuff – stuff that makes me think: 1. Like when you think or talk about your dream [...]
Good Intentions Tuesday
Flip is still recovering – actually he is fine today but the doctor said to give him another day at home. I can’t complain though he and Bounce are playing some very intricate game which requires a lot of instructions from one to another. While they listen to Roald Dahl on audio book – The [...]
Snow, Sewing and Good Intentions
I know, I know it’s supposed to be good intentions Tuesday. The snow combined with the fact I have had The Atlas home for 2 days (hooray!) meant today I stepped into the abandoned projects hole. (This is a cubby hole in my sewing room) The projects are abandoned forever but they are a bit [...]
Good Intentions Tuesday
This week I finished the quilt – see yesterday’s post if you want pics and I sorted my jewellery out. This was what the dressing table looked prior plus 2 small draws of mess. Now it looks like this. Unfortunately all my stuff to pay-forward was found by Flip who has decided he’d like to [...]
Good Intentions Tuesday – on Wednesday
Well there was snow!! Made some good head roads into Flip’s quilt should be ready for the big reveal Monday. Got the letters ready for starching to the toilet door – need to wait for a bit warmer weather though I think. Other than that – it’s holidays so we are keeping busy with important [...]
Good Intentions Tuesday # 2
This week I finally finished some cross stitch hearts I started at the beginning of the year. I whipped up the back to Bounce’s car cushion that I made in February!!! And I finally re-hemmed and overlocked this little dress so now (after it’s ironed!!) I can start to wear it again instead of feeling obligated every [...]
Good Intentions Tuesday #1
Okay folks – baby steps here. Last Tuesday I wrote a list of 10 things I need to tick off my list of intentions. The thing with all these wee jobs is they just bank up because the urgent – we have no bread and no clean underpants and the lazy – what’s on TV? [...]
