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…

Lustlist – End of April loves.
Oh heyyy! It’s been an age since I’ve done a lustlist! Well, a couple of months at least. I’ve not online browsing too much. My cat is sick (i’ll do a post about that later) and all money is going to vet bills. I can be an emotional shopper so, i’ve not been tempting myself. These are a few things I have stumbled across and wanted to share. RIVER ISLAND – Plus pink tie dye sequin shell T-shirt – $52.00 || I’m not a huge fan of shirts TBH, but this one just calls out to me! Colourful, sequins, boobs, it’s totally mermaidtastic! ASOS – Daisy Street Plus Mesh Insert Jersey Dress…

Concert/Event/Review – Adam Brand
Now wait a minute, I know, I know, you’re probably thinking “wait, what? Adam Brand?”. In fact, I had a friend who asked what I was up to and replied “and you think you know a person” when I explained I went to an Adam Brand concert. Here is the thing, I LOVE music. I’m one of those people who wish they were musical, but suck at it, so they immerse themselves into just listening and loving music. And let’s just say, my music taste is varied. Very varied. So when my friend Mallory mentioned going to a gig down the road from me, I was set to go, if only…

Mental Health – My thoughts on 13 Reasons Why
Trigger Warning – This post talks about Mental Health, Suicide, Self Harming and other similar topics. Like so many other people, I was drawn into the Netflix series “13 Reasons Why“, based on the book by the same name. I binge watched the 13 episode series over 2 days and was warned by multiple people not to watch the last episode alone. I’ve seen a few facebook/twitter posts and read a few articles and I just wanted to touch on a few things. Share my opinion and my story. Going into the TV show, I knew the basic premise. That it dealt with a suicide and high school students. Even…

White Night Ballarat
On Saturday, I headed into Ballarat for the first time in around 20 years. The trip was a lot easier than expected, I just had to make my way into Southern Cross station and jump on the V-Line. My everyday Myki card works for the trip and ended up only costing like $6 (each way). I had never been on a V-Line train and I was impressed. It was super comfortable and quite spacious with fold down tray tables and toilets in every carriage. It took around an hour and a half to get to Ballarat. We strolled around the streets a little and stopped by an Irish Pub before heading to…
