Its International Day of Happiness!!!
Are you happy? Today is all about being happy – Its the official International Day of Happiness. I personally believe that happiness is a choice. If we allow our circumstances to dictate whether or not we are happy, there are going to be ‘some’ who will live their whole life as a sad sack of potatoes. I personally have an issue with that mindset! Obviously there are times in our lives where circumstances do weigh into how we feel. A passing of a family member or a friend, or a loved one leaves and lives in another country, a business deal going sour, maybe our dreams haven’t come…

How to Bring out your Inner Goddess!
As a Stay at Home Mum of four children, I decided a few months ago that I needed to go on a journey to find ‘Sarah’ again. The young youthful Sarah, I remember was a very different person to who I am now. I remember her to be a lot more fun and spontaneous than she is now. She used to spontaneously go and have hot chocolates (I am not a coffee or tea drinker) and play pool at the Twin Waters Resort with friends on a Friday or Saturday evening. The young Sarah tried to learn how to surf (failed miserably – but it was fun trying)…

Madonna eat your heart out – the girls got style
This child is a fashionista! Her name happens to be Chanel and lets just say that she has some style. From an early age – 2, Chanel has wanted to dress herself . Often dismissing the perfect and practical outfit that I set out for her, for a much fancier dress or skirt and shirt combination. If it was cold she would add a pair of leg ins to the mix and walk out the door with a bracelet, necklace, sandals, a shoulder bag and sunglasses. Many times the tiara would be placed elegantly upon her head. This child is all about looking good. She is…

The week that came and went….
Well this week has been a great week, and a very busy week. The week started with birthdays,Wet’n Wild, a student free day, the normal school week, organising a family barbeque for tomorrow for 15 people, and secretly interviewing child care centres. Jaden needs some structure and playtime with other little boys, and I need a little space, and the ability to do a grocery shop without Jaden throwing items out of the trolley. He really is a grocery store nightmare. You may laugh, but I spend more time in the shopping centre trying to grab things that he has either thrown out or is about to throw…

Forget and do not look at yesterdays post! ….Move forward to good things and Beanie Parties
Today I woke up feeling good. What a relief! Just don’t go back to yesterday’s post when I was having a grumble about feeling out of sorts, and lets face it – I was Mrs Cranky Pants yesterday – so I don’t want you going backwards – GO Forwards! As I woke this morning from a lovely dream about our little family winning a prize home on the Gold Coast, I decided that today – I was going to be kind to myself and give myself permission to enjoy my day! Afterall, yesterday I had an ‘internal melt down’ which was a bit nasty. Yesterday was supposed to be…

Review: The Diary of the Wimpy Kid – Dog Days
So I know your all wondering what I thought of this movie? Dion and I decided that we would take the kids to the 6:40pm session at the Caloundra Cinemas tonight as we have an almost 10 year old who has loved the Wimpy kid series and was so looking forward to Dog Days coming out. Its the start of the September school holidays and we usually start the break off with a bit of a bang! Well a movie! How would I review it? Well, lets just say that I didn’t enjoy it as much as I enjoyed the first two movies in the series. Yes there…
