Back to blogging.

I cannot believe I have neglected this blog since before I even had a baby. I have internet at home once more and will try get my blog back up and running.

Quick update on me:
- I had a baby boy on the 27th of June 08 named Flynn.
- I seperated from Andy last Sept, there was alot of bitterness and fighting but we are getting to a point where we can get along quite well.
- I moved to Katoomba and have a cute duplex all to myself (and Flynn obviously), I've been decorating and will post some pics soon.
- I'm still off work but have gotmy website up and running and have a bit of work from m business.
- Can't think of anything else right now but will update later.

God I'm Crap

I just realised I haven't done a post on this thing for over 3 months now.  That is not at all living up to my new years resolutions is it?

I have 14 days until my due date and have stopped working so hopefully I'll make some more time to update on here.  Plus soon I'll have some cute baby photos to post.

Weekly Goals for w/c 25/03/2008


Taking the lead from the lovely miss Gala Darling; I’ve decided to start setting weekly goals for myself.

Sometimes when you set big heavy goals for yourself be it yearly, quarterly or even monthly it can be too huge to manage. Looking at such a large concept of something that needs to be done it can be hard to decide where to start and hard to feel any sense of accomplishment as you work towards it. Plus, if your anything like me it’s easy to just forget them and end up setting the same goal year after year without ever getting to tick them off your list.

Shorter goals are much easier to focus on and give a greater sense of achievement.

My goals for this week are:

- Reply to all emails, phone calls and text messages I receive.
- Get out of bed by 7.00am every morning. (I know that doesn’t sound hard but believe me, I’m nearly 6 months pregnant, heavy, tired and lazy. This is harder than it sounds)
- Post on my blog at least once a day.
- Make sure I eat three meals a day every day.
- Start writing up a business plan (I’ll fill you all in on this in the coming weeks)

Quote of the day

When you succeed in creating a fulfilling career, it will be uniquely you.  Your career will absolutely ooze with your own creative self-expression.   It may take the external form of a job, a business, a web site, volunteer work, or some other entity, but it will never be generic because you are not a generic person.  the right career will be so ridiculously you that if you thought about replacing yourself with someone else, it just wouldn't make sense.
- Steve Pavlina

Well, it looks like I lied....

It's been nearly a month since I promised to post more and I haven't posted even once.

I don't have a single excuse for you guys but we will see if the future shows me to be better.

At least this does prove I have incredible skills at procrastination.

Naughty little blogger


Well I haven't been getting off to such a good start neglecting my poor blog so much in it's first month of existence.
I know no excuses will do but heres mine anyway:
- I've been working really hard at the office trying not to get fired.
- I've been going through a particularly tired spot in my pregnancy.
- I've been stressing heaps about money and the future.
I've made peace with alot of things and am feeling alot better now and will start doing some more regular posts from now on.

Beautiful People.


Beautiful people
We share the same back door
And it isn't right
We never met before
But then
We may never meet again
If I weren't afraid you'd laugh at me
I would run and take all your hands
And I'd gather everyone together for a day
And when we gather'd
I'll pass buttons out that say
Beautiful people
Then you'd never have to be alone
'Cause there'll always be someone
With the same button on as you

Beautiful people
You ride the same subway
As I do ev'ry morning
That's got to tell you something
We've got so much in common
I go the same direction that you do

Beautiful people
You look like friends of mine
And it's about time
That someone said it here and now
I make a vow that some time, somehow
I'll have a meeting
Invite ev'ryone you know
I'll pass out buttons to
The ones who come to show
Beautiful people
Never have to be alone
'Cause there'll always be someone
With the same button on as you
"Melanie Safka"



Ever since I was a small child I have loved Melanie Safka and all her beautiful songs. I guess I still am a bit of a hippy at heart.
I was lying in bed trying to get to sleep and 'Beautiful People' was stuck in my head, I was getting a bit soppy and sentimental thinking about all the people I have met and especially about the people who have moved on from my life.

I believe we should use every opportunity given to us to connect with other people in this world. I would like to go to sleep every night knowing that 'today I have succeeded in touching someones life'

So Beautiful People, join me in my adventures, share my joys, my sorrows and let me share yours. The Internet gives us the opportunity to find so many like minded beautiful people. I will be wearing my button with pride. Will you?
