It's been a while.

I can't believe it's been so long since we have had a chat. I've missed writing and sharing and am so happy I've pushed the "re-start" button.

Molly, Charlotte and I - and our constant companion, "The Bottle".

Well, hello there!

Thank you so much for clicking that little link and popping in to see what this blog is all about. If you know me, you will know that I've had a blog since my first daughter was born over five years ago. (Good lord time flies!) I took a break because, well, life happened. Some of it was horrific and some of it miraculous.

The interesting thing about living through life's highs and lows is you have an opportunity to find 'yourself' again, or at least the new version of yourself. After some therapy sessions (we will touch on this fun one later) I realized I really missed writing, and sharing, my life adventures.

What you won't find on this blog is perfection. Not every meal is home-cooked and organic, there is usually a pile of laundry about my height in the basement, and my car, well my car could easily provide us with safe refuge in an emergency given the amount of "stuff" thats in it. What you will find is a friend. A really good friend. My friends are an extension of my family circle and I love to make them laugh, to hold them in their dark moments and to give them a good squeeze when they need it. So, pour yourself a glass of something delicious - whatever that may be - and let's get to know each other.

One of my favourite quotes of all time:

“Some days you're the bug. Some days you're the windshield. Be the windshield.”

And if you can't be the windshield, make sure you have a big bottle of windex and a cloth on hand.

Chat soon!
