That's it, our last day in this house. A house that felt like home since 2022. A place that saved us from our last rented home which didn't turn out too well in the end. Convenient location, perfect size, space to make our own. And while we are moving on to bigger and better (hopefully),… Continue reading Saying Goodbye: Mourning the End of a Chapter

Live Your Timeline
This is a reminder that we all have different timelines. There is no age or stage in life that we all achieve the same things. Some people will never do what you do, or what I do.

Thirty and Thriving
I have been 30 now for a month, and what a month it has been! I have to say, being 30 isn’t looking so bad! What was everyone warning me about? Of course, I jest. I know a month isn’t a reflection of what can happen in a year or ten of my 30s decade,… Continue reading Thirty and Thriving

The problem with school holidays
Firstly, I accidentally broke my daily streak! When I realised this morning, I felt upset. But how can I be? I worked hard and showed up to write something everyday for 41 days in a row.
