Today was a slower-paced day at home. I started cleaning out the garage and realised there was far more rubbish in there than I first thought. I was originally going to donate the couch, but after looking at it properly, I thought, it’s 20 years old, it’s had its time. So instead, we got ridContinue reading “An Uncaring Care Call and Everything Inbetween”

Kylie and Netflix
Netflix, relaxing, enjoyed watching KYLIE. ✨ Rubbish collection this week, and I’ve been trying to clear out a few things around the house. Not rubbish — just things I’ve kept because they still have value. I’ve got a leather couch I’ve had for twenty years that’s still in great condition, and instead of throwing itContinue reading “Kylie and Netflix”
May Thursday
Today was just an ordinary day. Worked from home, school runs, two houses, animals, keeping everything moving, and then straight to the hospital again at night. It’s 9pm now we are at the hospital, I lay on the bed, switch off and relax, scrolling while they play beside me. The younger child always with meContinue reading “May Thursday”
A Heavy Day
This morning feels very heavy. My daughter will have been in hospital for six weeks tomorrow, and the strain on the whole family is enormous. The children are carrying fear and uncertainty every day, worried about their mum and frightened about what the future might look like. Watching them try to cope with something soContinue reading “A Heavy Day”
Ordinary Tuesday
Today was just an ordinary Tuesday. Cold, overcast skies and the usual routine of trying to get through another day. My girl still isn’t getting any better and remains in hospital. Six weeks on Thursday, which honestly feels hard to believe. Life still keeps moving around you though, the normal worries everyone carries, the littleContinue reading “Ordinary Tuesday”
Gold Fish 🐟
Another death in the family, although this time it was one of the fish. I went to my daughter’s house this morning after dropping the kids off at school. Yesterday I topped the fish tank up a little because the cat has been drinking from it lately. This morning I walked in to find oneContinue reading “Gold Fish 🐟”
Sleepy Sunday ✨
Today was lovely. A sleep in, then spent some time working through VCAT paperwork for my daughter’s car after a really disappointing experience with a car yard last year. Hopefully our case is strong enough for a refund. Did the groceries, looked after all the animals in two houses, went to the hospital, then cameContinue reading “Sleepy Sunday ✨”
Slow Saturday ✨
Good morning Saturday. A slow start to the morning, coffee in hand, scrolling the news while the world slowly wakes up. Heading up to the hospital later today. A mild autumn morning with a little sunshine breaking through, the kind of weather that feels calm and gentle. The smell of hyacinths drifting through the house,Continue reading “Slow Saturday ✨”
Friday
My favourite workday of the week because it’s the last one. Friday. 🍂 The weather’s getting colder, the weekend is ahead and for once… no real plans. Just looking forward to a sleep in and not worrying too much. Had a roof leak the other day and honestly I think the insurance excess will costContinue reading “Friday”
Its All Here
This morning I walked outside and breathed in the fresh, crisp autumn air. I looked up at the sky filled with beautiful clouds, and the moon hanging there like a quiet smile. Not a cartoon smile — just that thin sliver moon that somehow makes the whole sky feel peaceful. The Earth really is aContinue reading “Its All Here”
