Too many guests!

31st July 2009 | 0 Comments

We were looking for an inflatable guest bed a few days ago, we had both my family and one of my husbands friends staying over so didn’t have enough actual beds for them all. They are actually more expensive than I imagined they would be, when I suggested getting one I thought we’d be able [...]


Personalized gift cards

31st July 2009 | 0 Comments

Here’s a really cute idea I came across a while ago, it makes giving a gift card a much more personal thing because thanks to GiftCardLab you can customize them with a picture of your choice – so who ever it is for and for whatever occasion, you can create the perfect card for them! [...]


Living debt free

31st July 2009 | 0 Comments

When my husband and I first met he was heavily in debt. This is not something that I was aware of until after we’d been together a while and I did not know the extent of his debts until a few years into the relationship. It was a lot more than I had suspected, let’s [...]


Keyless Locks are coming

31st July 2009 | 0 Comments

Watching 24 last week I saw one of the bad guys enter a building using his finger as a key. How wonderful I thought, imagine if this were real life and not just on the telly — the keyless lock is going to be big in the not too distant future I told myself. I [...]


New Dexter fan

31st July 2009 | 0 Comments

I am currently watching the second season of Dexter, I only just got into the show a few months ago so am obviously running very behind every one else. It’s the season where he somehow finds himself admitting to a drug addiction he doesn’t actually have and having to go to Prescription Drug Rehab and [...]


Becoming a gardener

30th July 2009 | 0 Comments

My mum absolutely loves gardening, ever since I was a child I have memories of her out in the various gardens we had when I was growing up – she would take great pride in her work, would get excited about what she was growing, would spend hours planting seeds. She always said that it [...]


I’ve had a Vision!

30th July 2009 | 0 Comments

I had a letter from my bank a few days ago informing me that because I now deposit more than $x per month they are going to upgrade my account – I already find this annoying because I like my account the way it is, if I wanted a different account then I would change [...]


Hubby’s Birthday Gift

30th July 2009 | 0 Comments

I bought my lovely husband a watch last month for his birthday and I spent an awful lot of time looking around online for somewhere to get him the perfect one – I wanted to make sure it was a really gorgeous and good quality watch but money is tight at the moment so I [...]


Can’t Cook, Won’t Cook.

26th July 2009 | 0 Comments

I am a terrible cook, I can’t cook and I won’t cook — it’s a good job my husband can and likes to otherwise I fear I would starve to death. Ah OK I am not that bad, I am sure I could manage to feed myself if I absolutely had to, but I don’t [...]


Used to love web design!

25th July 2009 | 0 Comments

I wish I could get back into website design again. I used to love designing new layouts and making them go live was like, my favourite online activity. These days I am strictly a free template kinda girl. I got out of the habit of designing my own and have never been able to get [...]
