25.01.2022 School went back for everyone today here in sunny qld. I've been working at school the whole time (and a bit of OT over the holidays,) so while weekends have been weirdly un-sporty, the weekdays have been pretty predictable, and I feel that we are all back into some kind of routine now, albeit altered by social distancing and what-not. I find though that my nights are filled with pointless scrolling and then some time- wasting regret. Sadly the little creative creature inside... me misses out, which is sad cause she's so cute and I love when she's around. So I'm pledging to get back on the creative horse and #committobeingcreative like I pledged that I would be doing all those years ago. You're welcome to join me if you'd like, when you can. It's only for a minimum of 10 minutes a day, but I promise it'll be worth it!! Today I am hoping to finish a crochet beanie for my boss, orange is her favorite colour See more

24.01.2022 Couldn't be prouder to be an Aussie right now!!! I was overwhelmed with the orders you guys placed for my earrings, pins and brooches, and am delighted to say that we donated $100 All up!! I hope you don't mind, I gave $50 to legacy (for those that didn't make it back from war,) and $50 to RSL (for those that came back but sometimes feel like they're still fighting.) Very proud to have gotten up at dawn with my family and paying our respects. You guys are totally awesome xxx #lestweforget #anzacday2020 PS the pictures are of my mum and dad who proudly served for us, we thank them for their service, dedication and courage under some of the most grueling conditions seen by man

18.01.2022 Question for the teachers: is THIS what ironic is!?!!

18.01.2022 Breakfast club, what an awesome flashback

18.01.2022 Made some #earrings with my #3dprinter, probs won't wear them into the English classes any time soon!

16.01.2022 This beautiful woman is doing a great thing. Check out her recent post about why she's wearing her red lipstick every day until this whole situation is over. Maybe you will join her cause!? You go girl! @tash.mccorry #victoryred2020

16.01.2022 So apparently there's a possible treatment for COVID-19 similar to head lice treatment, but it came back, and had to be re-treated. Mum's globally are going, "duh!" Also, mum's will save the world eventually, no doubt in my mind! #covid #isolation #girlssavetheworld https://twitter.com/brisbanetim/status/1246344993725243393

16.01.2022 We have 3 x fully grown 16 year old boys running around in our 40+ year old house today. Not the most relaxing noises when the walls rattle, but I'm trying to be zen and am reading my #simpliciousflow book for the millionth time as a little bit of #committobeingcreative time. Once I've had my cuppa and have yelled at the boys I'll make some more beetroot marmalade......it's Soooooooo good!!!

15.01.2022 A little reminder to stay indoors folks xxx

15.01.2022 Here's my musings once again. Stay safe Melbourne xxx She'll be right," you hear them say; "it won't happen to me." It's almost like they are immune, because they cannot see... "I'm alright," you hear them squawk, their attitudes blasé They’re creeping close, not distancing - it won’t just go away You’ll be right, you hear them grunt when asking for some space They think it won’t apply to them, you can see it on their face It’s alright, you hear them moan when asked to toe the line They feel their rights are being lostbut things are far from fine He’ll be right, you hear them spit, don’t take away my rights! The rules are there for safety’s sake, and they just want to fight They’re alright, you hear them shriek when flaunting safety rules This problem’s big for all of us, but they just look like fools She’ll be right you see them glare, the screens with numbers high Their suburbs listed on TV. It makes you want to cry I’m alright you see them wince when forced to take the test They never thought it was this close. The virus doesn’t rest You’ll be right you see the fear their loved ones start to feel If only we had taken note, this all seems so surreal It’s alright, you see the nurse in full clad PPE She’s patient, kind, resilient. The last person you’ll see He’ll be right, you see their face, contorted and distressed Why weren’t we warned much earlier? - Oh please, give me a rest They’re alright you see them all - the elderly, the frail The vulnerable, the sick, the weak; a horrifying trail She’ll be right, you see his face, the doctor gripped with fear She won’t be right at all you know, the outlook is unclear I’m alright, you see him gasp, his lungs are weak. No will The last words from his stony mouth, he’s quite now. He’s still I’m alright, they chant outside, not knowing what’s within Yet you are shell-shocked, how on earth did this happen to him? You’ll be right, they share the lie; they hug, they touch, they kiss Until it touches their own lives, their ignorance is bliss It’s alright, they disregard the numbers that they hear It’s my right to do what I want! And many blindly cheer He’ll be right, they think out loud, behind a plastic screen No chance to say final goodbyes, a coffin never seen They’re alright they realise, it’s bigger than us all Survival is at stake so please, don’t make the dominoes fall

14.01.2022 Surely it's not just me

12.01.2022 Writing down the bones by Natalie Goldberg.......going to have to share this with my son #writingdownthebones

10.01.2022 Why can't I stop watching? I've got other things to do!!!

08.01.2022 Folks I've been busy with my 3d printer, and thought I'd share the love!! If you'd like your own poppy before Anzac day, simply dm me and I'll get something out in the post Monday. $10 for your own brooch, tie/hair clip or earrings as displayed by my gorgeous model friend Ness! $5 from every sale will be donated to the RSL. Hopefully there's enough time for it to reach you by the end of the week, so get your order in by Sunday 4pm please! #anzacdayinisolation #lestweforget #anzacday2020

08.01.2022 I'm going to work now, but I'd love to see your ideas......#quarantineamovie where you put a quarantine touch on a movie a la Jimmy Fallon on Twitter!! Eg Men in gloves, big hero six feet away, etc. Get the drift!?!! Would love to see your ideas after a hard slog at school!!!

07.01.2022 Mental health should be a higher priority.......i'm getting back on the #committobeingcreative warpath. Found ten minutes to work on a big piece that's been swimming in my head for a while....no deadline, but a promise to spend 10 minutes a day on it.......make sure you take a small pocket each day just for you xxx

07.01.2022 Please stay safe folks - I'm anxious about the unseen threat that feels like it's on our doorstep once again. I'm worried about our friends in the southern states that are feeling helpless and hopeless, but the scariest thing is the ignorance that individuals feel. This is not a time to be selfish, it's a time to cast aside what you think, and to take the time to LEARN THE TRUTH. People way smarter than me are hoping to fix this, but people way dumber are making it hard for them. Please stay safe xxx Here's a little something I've been thinking about over the last few days and weeks, decided it's about time to put virtual pen to paper once again xxx

07.01.2022 Want to hear a funny story kids!?!! This gorgeous girl Kirsten has created a group called What's For Tea?! where people are sharing their experiences during lockdown, especially in the kitchen. There's no nay sayers, only love, support, and SO MANY LAUGHS - so clearly I'm loving it!! So the challenge was put down to those that were keen...... make a cake from the Australian Women's weekly birthday cake book. ... Oh yeah, that's TOTALLY ME!!! And because I didn't have girls, I wanted to make one that I'd dreamt about ever since I was a little girl..... the Barbie dolly varden dress cake......WHAT COULD GO WRONG!?!! Cue hilarity from the start........ Three layers of cake (chocolate, vanilla and choc chip, ) done Fresh and crumbly when cutting into a dress shape (grr) 500g of icing to crumbcoat - fun!!! Left her in the beer fridge overnight to chill Icing this morning, the copha (shortening,) was still hard and busted my beaters but this girl want going to get the best of me!!! So hours later, after much blood, sweat and tears, here she is in all her glory!!! I wish I could share with you all, but I licked the spoon the while way through and corona, so yeah!!! I've definitely got it out of my system now, and I'm grateful for boys! Xxx Oh boy what a weekend!!!
