Wassup!?
Life is just weird. I can’t really describe how I’m feeling about it at the moment, so here is a list form of some things that has been happening as of late. – Being super super amazingly excited about The Hobbit. Watching the red carpet premiere online and being very emotional. I may have cried. Then being frustrated because Australia isn’t releasing it until boxing day. WHAT! I was even considering flying over to New Zealand on the 13th for a midnight screening… if I won the lottery. – Babysitting my youngest niece & nephew. Watching them play on the awesome play equipment and wishing I could get on and play with…

If you really knew me…
There has been a lot of these posts floating around the blogosphere, and seeing as I’m kind of in a blogging slump, with my head being caught up in unpacking and such, I thought I’d join in. You’d know that I feel most alive when I’m surrounded by nature and animals. That being said, I like to have the modern conveniences of toilets, running water and internet. I’d love to just live in a beautiful house in the middle of a forest. You’d know that I don’t feel like ‘me’ without coloured hair. When I’ve tried going back to a more ‘natural’ colour, I get depressed. I tend to always go back…

Into #thedarlingden
Last week was the final move into the new place. I can understand why they say that moving is one of the most stressful times. I’ve been a mess of emotions. Our internet is taking longer to set up, thanks to poor service from Telstra. We rang up 10 days in advance as my Father and I both need the internet, and were assured it would be ready to go by the time we moved in. Except, they forgot to put through the order for the modem. So, fingers crossed we shall have it by weeks end. We had to go out and buy a wifi dongle. My place is…

Welcoming Betsy!
I’d like to take a moment to introduce everyone to the newest member of our family, Betsy! My parents adopted their dog Emily nearly 3 years ago. She came to my parents scared, timid and in bad condition. She needed teeth removed, her coat tended too and a great deal of love. She was a breeder dog and once used up, was sent off for adoption. I’m so thankful my parents found her and nurtured her. Sadly, she isn’t the healthiest of dogs, like a lot of Cavis, she has heart problems. Emily and Betsy, on Mums lap in the car on the way home. Emily is a different dog around other Cavaliers,…

The Darling Den, an update!
We’ve started painting! YES! My sister and I headed out to Bunnings in search of white paint, so I could paint the wall behind where I was putting my wall units. Who knew that so many different shades of white existed!? I was waiting at the paint counter to get my paint tinted to the colour I wanted, only to be told that the colour I had picked was the base colour and I didn’t need anything done to my tin. Whoops. I’ve learnt i’m not really a painter. I had no idea what I was doing. So, I put my sister to work! She has a steady hand and…
