Sun City

September 2nd, 2010

This past weekend my folks booked accommodation for all of us at The Vacation Club. I was super grateful because I soo needed a break and some alone time with my family. Anyway we arrived on Friday, the check-in went fairly quickly.  The Vacation Club is really nice, we had a six sleeper self catering [...]

Potty Training

August 1st, 2010

Gogo politely asked me to please get Abigail a potty as she is ready for training. My little 18 month old is ready for training, hell no. Mommy who is 38 is so not ready for this. Don’t get me wrong, I am not too crazy about changing diapers especially a poop one BUT I [...]

Inspired

July 28th, 2010

On Saturday I dropped Joshua off at my friend Alison, as she was taking the kids to Gold Reef to celebrate Corbin’s birthday. I drove up the drive way around 8 am (very early for a Saturday morning) and guess who comes jogging up the hill – little Miss Ali.  Wow, she looked stunning – [...]

Family Photo Shoot

June 30th, 2010

About a month ago we asked Jeanette Verster to take photo’s of our family. I love photo’s, I have frames all over my house.  Whilst living abroad I’d collect a frame from every country, state or province I visited, so you can imagine how many I have. (Keep in mind I have visited over 35 [...]

It is 8:30 and I’m making time to read all of the blogs that I follow and do one or two tweets.  I’ve been so busy this week and I have sadly neglected my e-mail, blogging and twitter friends. Unfortunately, I have to admit that my family have also suffered and for this I am [...]

Reaching My Goal Weight

April 1st, 2010

A few weeks ago I assisted my sister with her studies and offered to be her “case study” for hypnotherapy diet. I was very impressed as I no longer have the desire to eat peanut butter and bread and no longer crave chocolate, but I was not losing weight fast enough, I’m desperate to lose [...]

The launch

March 15th, 2010

On Saturday the 6th of March, we launched the Tranquil Body Treats, mine and my hubbies new business venture. The afternoon was filled with lots of laughter and fun. We had a few lucky draws and fabulous prizes were handed out, to name a few (free facial, BNS massage, R200 gift voucher, free hair blow [...]

No more babies

March 11th, 2010

There has been a lot of talk about Wilgeheuwel hospital lately and yes! they were featured on Carte Blanche. I was admitted to the gynecological ward today to have my tubes tied. Most of you are aware that I am pretty much part of the furniture at Wilgeheuwel, especially the maternity ward as I’ve spent [...]

Something’s up

February 24th, 2010

Hmmmm something is definitely up. For the past few days I haven’t been feeling myself. I am dead tired, exhausted, have awful headaches, absolutely no energy whatsoever and I’m a raging bull attacking anyone that crosses my path. I’m really not dealing too well with all these mixed emotions and feelings. The other day I [...]
