Goodbye Tonka
This is so hard to write. So so so hard. Last night, on Mothers Day, I made the hard decision to have my little man put to sleep. It was heartbreaking, and to say I’m absolutely gutted is an understatement. 12/08/2010 – 14/05/2017 If you follow the blog on facebook or Instagram, you’ll know that Tonka has been unwell. Just over a month ago, we took him for some tests as he was losing weight and vomiting more than normal. We were thinking maybe thyroid issues or diabetes. What it confirmed was unexpected. Kidney disease. He spent a few days at the vets, on fluids, started on a new diet and medication. The…

Answer This… Cats or Dogs?
Ahh, the age old question, cats or dogs? To be honest, it’s hands down DOGS for me! I do however love all animals & currently only own a cat! If I had my way, I’d have a dog, and hopefully it’s on the cards for this year, but I do love my cat. I got my first dog when I was around 6 and apart from the last year, have always had at least one dog. My first dog was an Aussie Silky called Billy, then there was an Aussie Silky x Maltese named Prince. Frodo was my 3rd dog, and then I got Ginny (who lives with my ex).…

Health and Happenings!
No, my cabinet isn’t set up like that. I just wanted to take a photo of the photobook I made of Mr Frodo & thought I’d put his urn (him?) in the picture. I laugh when I see the look Tonka is giving in the background. To be honest, his urn is in a material bag, in a paper bag, on the floor between my chest of drawers and bookcase. I decided I wanted to do a photobook ages ago, but snapfish had a half price sale on recently. You get 20 pages with the book and you can add in extra. This one was 44 pages. It’s hard fitting…

Caturday – Tonka Time
It’s been awhile since I shared some love of my fur babies here. I’m still missing Mr Frodo terribly, I had moments where I will break down and cry just from the heart break, but I also know thats not what he would have wanted. Tonka fretted for a while, went off his food, was very lost, but he’s back to his old self again now. He loves going and playing with my parents dogs though. I’m sure he thinks of himself as a dog. He used to have a toy foam red nose that he LOVED, that was until Aussie tore it up. I went on ebay and bought…

Life Lately – January Musings
This really seems to be my ‘go to’ outfit lately. Top, skater skirt, boots. Though as it’s been warmer I’ve been switching to sandals. The weather has been crazy, from 38°c one day, 25°c the next. Today it was raining. Melbourne had a bit of a heat wave a week ago, a few consecutive days over 40! I was thankful I was home in Sydney in my air con, but I’m flying down to Melbourne on Thursday and well, my friends house doesn’t have air con. I’m praying the weather stays tolerable. Skirt – ASOS | Top – City Chic | Belt – Dorothy Perkins | Boots – Betts |…
