Once again Twitter has proven how powerful it can be. There is a really brave young 15 year old girl in the Uk with terminal cancer. She has started a bucket list. Somethings she can do and there are tons of people helping her with local stuff, then there are place she would love to have gone but she can not travel anymore. Here is her list on her blog... #AliceBucketList – South African Goodie Box

Today is Caleb’s birthday. I have taken some pictures and will do a happy post on the Pinklet’s blog. But this is a sad one, this is after all my space to say things in my heart and head. Feel free to skip if you like.
We were driving to the park for a picnic and cake for Caleb’s birthday and I thought about seeing the family later...
What the heck do you call a 30 plus year old boyfriend?
Boyfriend sounds like we are in high school and just somehow sounds trivial for the status of this relationship. I cringe everytime I have to say it. But what other options are there?
Partner would be great, it is the one widely used in the UK for all relationships married, non married, gay, straight everything it is a catch all. Unfortunately here in South...
Homosexuality, School and Obedience
Do you ever land up thinking something and wonder how on earth you got onto that train of thought? Today was one of those days. I heard a news bulletin about a columnist, now foreign representative, calling homosexual people dogs and pigs. I thought why we always equate insulting someone with likening them to animals? Animal in most cases behave a hell of a...
It is my birthday!
I love my birthday. I love surprises and feeling special for the day. Yme really out did himself this year. I know he deliberated a lot about what to get. In the end he got me a Galaxy Tablet! The self same tablet I am writing this blog post on. It is great, very similar to my HTC Android phone so easy to use and familiar layout. I love it, a total spoil... Mommies have to be soft
One of the things we as women worry about when becoming a mom is the toll that it takes on our bodies. Nothing is ever quite the same again.
Flat tummies are gone, boobs are saggier, stretch marks are present, wrinkles multiply. Sure with exercise, gym and effort we can tone, trim, flattern and harden our bodies again. But should we place all this pressure... Can I share a little fantasy?
Minds out the gut please it is nothing kinky. I am sure The Geek and his mom are rather glad I am not divulging kinky sex fantasies, hmm although…. no, removes own mind from the gutter and back to what I am fantasizing about.
But first due to my small obsession with words I need to explain why I chose the word fantasy and not dream or even... The bookcase of awesomeness.
I have wanted a Pac-man bookcase ever since I saw a link to one on line.
Last weekend Yme and his brothers set about to make one. Wood was bought and strapped to the roof of our little fiesta. Power tools were purchased. Designs were drawn and much noise was made. They got it all together and then during the week sanding started.
Yesterday was the last... Excuse me… your green is the wrong way around
When I was growing up there was a friend of mine from Cape Town who’s parents moved to Pretoria. Suddenly this blonde surfer boy found himself with no sea and a whole new life. He used to talk about Cape Town all the time and how great it was and how much he missed it. Nothing in Pretoria was good enough. Look I know that after living in Cape Town,...
1 year
So it has been a year since I moved to Cape Town and Yme started our lives together. What a year it has been. Here is the run down
The kids and I moved to Durbanville and Yme was thrown into the deep end with 2 kids. I think the kids and Yme have adapted very well.
Had to put our ART dreams on hold for finacial reasons, it is still unfinished and I will...
