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!

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... 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...
In Memory – Natasha
Yme’s sister died last week – gosh I can’t even bear to type those words, to see them like that in black and white. How can they possibly be true? How is it that one year after I met vibrant alive gorgeous redhead that we were saying goodbye?
The first time I met Natasha was when I came down to Cape Town with the pinklets to do our ART...
I have great parents
My parents came to visit this weekend, the Pinklets were so excited to see them. They have such a special relationship. Everyone else fades into the background in Caleb’s life when his Bumpa is around.
My dad brought them a bird feeder he had made them and they are delighted to sit at the dinning room window to watch the little birds come to the...
2nd chances
Valentines day is coming up and this is The Geek and my first valentines day. Yes scandalous I know, knocked up and ready to pop, unmarried and not even a year together. Oh well
This made me think about second chances. One of the biggest things that I was worried about when coming out of such a disastrous marriage and failed relationship was why I landed up...
New Year, so guess that means a resolutions list?
But I have no other goal or resolution other than to somehow survive being the mother of 3, home school Rachel, run 2 small businesses from home and stay sane.
2010, what a year. But compared to 2009 it was a great year.
*I moved to CT, then moved again to our lovely house, i love this house and I love living near the beach.
*Fell very very much in love...
Day 30 → A letter to yourself, tell yourself EVERYTHING you love about yourself
Oh boy does this meme showcase how much of a Non Completer Finisher I am. This link to the Belbin Team Roles chart will tell you what a completer finisher is if the name was not enough to give it away.
But Day 30 needs to be done so I can stop avoiding my blog and get on with other news
So a letter to myself. Sounded easy but I just deleted most of what I...
Day 26 → Have you ever thought about giving up on life? If so, when and why?
Last year there were times when I did not want to face the world, it seemed easier to stay in bed. I was tired and it all just seemed like a lot of effort. I was not sleeping, hardly eating, but I did get up, mostly because the Pinklets appear at the edge of the bed in the morning. Kids don’t really care how you feel they want you to get up and get on...
Pinklets get a place in the cyber world
So I am a blogger and a home schooling mom. I do post stuff about my kids on my blog from time to time, but I thought maybe they needed their own space. The idea actually came when I wanted to print a Platypus project that we had been working on and I was struggling to get the printers working, without having to sell organs to afford the ink. I was...
