    Two Years of Toby!

    Two years! Can you believe it?! Around this day 2 years ago, Craig and I went for a drive to a park in the Glass House Mountains, to meet a lady about a dog. We stood in the parking lot marveling at this teeny tiny puppy and decided yep, he’s my boy.  If you’ve been following me for A LONG time, you’d know all about Mr Frodo and how much he meant to me. How heartbroken I was when he passed. Then after some time, how much I wanted a dog. I even wrote a post “When all you want in life is a dog“. I’d been waiting a while,…

    Christmas Lustlist (Shop Local Australia)

    It’s heading towards Christmas time, so I thought I should do a round-up of some things I’d love for Santa to drop off. This year, I’m focusing on shopping for local Australian brands and small businesses. Billsons – 2023 Advent Calender – $160 || This one is a bit different for me as I don’t drink very often. I have some of Billsons cordials and I’ve tried a few of their vodka mixes and well, I kind of want to try them all! What better way to try some, than the advent calendar? I may just end up getting a mixed box one day. Mermaid Salon – Mother of Hades…

    Outfit – Barbie time!

    Always late lately. But better late than never, hey? This is what I wore to go and see Barbie at the cinema. I wanted to dress up, but was also not feeling 100% so made an effort on my clothes, but no makeup. That may have been a good idea because, like many others, I did get a bit teary watching the movie. This dress from Little Party Dress has always given me Barbie vibes. I love the print of it so much I have it in two different styles of dresses. I originally styled it differently (below & last image) but realised I didn’t like how it was sitting,…

    Life Lately

    Stealing this idea from Louise of Polka Spots and Freckle Dots and doing a ‘Life Lately’ post. Visiting I traveled down to Sydney in April to visit family. It marked 2 years since my Sister and Mother passed. It’s hard to believe it’s been 2 years. It was amazing to see family and get to spend time with my Dad. I was only there a short time, but it was good for my soul. Feeling Sick! Ugh, I thought I was just having a bad reaction to the Ozempic I started taking for my diabetes, but turns out I have gastro 🙁 It’s been hell. My mental health has been…

    Outfit – Peach PRC Concert

    When I saw that Peach PRC was touring, I messaged my boyfriend asking if he wanted to tag along to a concert with me. He’d heard a few Peach PRC songs and didn’t mind them, so said yep. Seeing as he’s a musician he does have a wide range of music tastes and was happy to get out to a gig. Now, I had been sick (whats new) and was debating if I was even well enough to go, but I’m so glad I pushed through. We arrived and had to wait in line for a while. The concert was held at The Triffid. I’d never been before but it’s…
