I know what your problem is…!
It was so amazing to be asked to go to a group for Mums in Business – especially when your in the process of looking for ‘The Right Direction’. A friend of mine has asked me a few times now if I would go, and although I was planning to go, I wasn’t able to go for one reason or another – till today. Actually its been Jaden who has prevented me from going! Yep I am blaming the boy! This time, I made it a priority to go – obviously I would put my kids first if I had to, but I made a plan of action,…

What is love…?
Thank you Pinterest! I’ve been thinking about how to word this blog post as I am not actually speaking about anyone in particular. So don’t go getting your knickers in a knot, or your noses out of joint! I have just simply been thinking about the idea that ‘Love’ is directly related to the word ‘kindness’ and ‘ACTION!’ How can someone say that they love you…but treat you as though your not necessary! Does this mean that the word ‘Love’ has strings attached to it. Well yes, I believe that Love does have strings! The strings are called relationship. Not necessarily an intimate relationship, but lets say…

What’s going on inside you?
Isn’t it funny, some of the conversations that come up when chatting with your kids? Just the other day, we were just all chatting about life and what we liked and somehow I was able to throw in the comment that inside of me is a very fit, babe-alicious, fashionable, fun yummy mummy – screaming to be let out! Something I am absolutely not feeling at the moment…but there it was on the table. There was silence for a minute – girls deep in thought, when my youngest little girl Chanel (6) says, ‘well inside of me is a very rich and talented fashion designer…..who really wants to…

Do you have to put everything on line?
Well we all know the Kardashian family will do anything for a dollar! I just wonder what they won’t do? The Aussie site Kidspot.com.au has published a photo of Kourtney Kardashian, legs in stirrups, literally pulling her baby daughter out. Is this too much information? Do we need to see every aspect of their lives? Are they able to keep some things in their lives private? I get that some people don’t care how many people are in the room while they give birth….but having people all over the globe watching on television and seeing your birth photos is just a bit wierd. Well that’s…

Womens Lifestyle Expo
September 14 and 15 2012 As you can see I am a little late posting about this fantastic event. I have been processing what I would like to say about this event as I really wanted to give the women’s expo the praise that it deserved. Let me tell you – IT WAS FANTASTIC! Now, if you know me – you know that I Looooove womens expo’s. I love kids expo’s and markets, I love Work at Home Mums showing off their wares, I love hearing about women who started with nothing and have worked their business into a massive empire! Women who are inspired to go into…

Did you miss me…!
I bet your thinking that Mischievious Mum (me) went M.I.A? Well I am back. I have to admit that I did have a mini holiday and I found myself thinking about my blog and what I wanted to do with it! My mind was going crazy – I wrote many of my ideas down on paper – and I am still adding to the list! First of all, however, I am going to tell you the quick version of my week away…well not quite a week. The Microsoft Tech Ed conference was back again for another year down on the Gold Coast. We love the Tech Ed conference as we…

The 30 Day Challenge!
I found the perfect video for this blog post. I have been giving this kind of challenge some thought over the last couple of days, so you can only imagine my excitement, yes excitement, when I found this video. I am sure you are wondering why I would be excited to find a video – bit lame? No, not lame, but I am excited as it sets up my blog post perfectly. “The next 30 days are going to pass whether you like it or not, so why not think about something you have always wanted to try and give it a shot for the next 30 days?” (Matt Cutts) I…

Oompa Loompa’s live at Kmart Caloundra
I am guilty of lying to my children. I have encouraged them to believe in Santa, the Tooth fairy, the Easter Bunny and Oompa Loompa’s! I made the lie more authentic by creating an email address – not for the Oompa Loompa’s, but the others. However, because i find it hard to swallow that these mysteriously pretend characters get all the praise for our hard work of buying our kids their Christmas presents….Santa and the Easter Bunny have found themselves affected by the GFC. In fact all three of them are having some money woes. Santa and his friends come and leave their wares, but the value of the gifts…
