School, new baby, teething, housework, twins, tantrums, appointments, meetings, emails, blog, meals, nappies, laundry, driving, groceries, the gym, family, bills, church, volunteer jobs (can’t believe I volunteered at school too), husband, ironing, quilts for queensland………………that is pretty much my life right now and forget craft or trying to run a store. I just need more hours everyday and finding time to cut up […]
{Keep Reading...}a nice day

Why thank you for all of those sweet birthday messages. I had such a nice day which started with an early morning call from my dad and my mum who said I was turning 105! Oops, she corrected herself but it was pretty funny. I could have done without Finn’s tantrums (he’s taken over from […]

Thirty five! Today I am 35! Get out of town, I still feel 25 until I find more little wrinkles on my face!!! I’ve packed a lot into my life so far and the last few years have been crazy. I had my first baby at 30 and all 4 of my babies by 34. It’s been quite the ride […]

I’ve been teasing some of you over on facebook about how fabulous today was going to be. I can’t share too much with you YET but all I can say is wow, wow and more wows. It’s not often that I get a day away from the house and my responsibilities, but today retro daddy was left […]

Skye reminded me the other day that I’d left off another TV show I’ve been watching lately. Now before you tell me it’s trashy, I know that. But I do find it funny and after a day with my four….well you just need to watch something light and trashy. And laugh. Especially as it reminds me of […]
{Keep Reading...}iPhone questions
February 21, 2011 By 23 Comments
OK, so I’m starting to feel like maybe I’m not in the right demographic for an iPhone. I really should have been identified at the store as needing some extra support, like an iPhone support group for the clueless (or blonde and clueless). And when you’re going to leave the store they have a quiet […]

Well I’m probably a little late to the party but I finally got an iphone 4……an early present for my birthday next week and don’t even go there when I first told retro daddy what i wanted for my birthday. Just don’t do there. So I’m loving it but feel like an 80 year old […]
