Sometimes, I wish to be normal. For my biggest problem to be what way to cut my hair. (Ok, being the anti girly girl, that will never be a problem for me, but you know what I mean.) I feel very anti-label these days. I’m not happy being told I’m a “this” or “that”. […]

On The Street Where You Live
I was tagged by John James to write about the street I grew up in. Only I don’t know where to start. I don’t remember the house I lived in for the first few years of my life in Adelaide. I was too young, and have only seen it (if you know what I […]
#2015TheYearOfMe Weekly Challenge 5
It’s simple pleasures week this week. Time to go to your bookshelves and pick up that old, dog-eared book and put it in your bag for the week. Make sure you read it when you’ve got some spare time – on public transport, in waiting rooms, while stirring dinner. I’ve got a travel memoir […]
What I Loved: No Energy Edition
It’s actually quite hard to write a “what I loved” post when you’re tired! I found out this week that I am borderline low iron, so my GP has suggested I start iron supplements for three months. She doesn’t expect me to feel any better for 2-3 weeks though. Which is a bit sucky, to […]
Stats and Money Aren’t Dirty
There is a perception that I feel is prevalent in blogging where stats and money (eg sponsored post rates) are something that is seen as a bit dirty and not to be talked about. Now, of course if you’ve signed a non-disclosure agreement or a rate is commercial in confidence, then duh. I ‘m […]
Don’t Take On The Problems Of Others
Problem solving has kind of a negative connotation, whether it be at home, work, sports club or any other activity that is part of your life. I don’t really view problem solving as negative, because I like things that are actually a challenge. Don’t Take On The Problems Of Others Define Your Boundaries […]
#2015TheYearOfMe Weekly Challenge 4
Last week’s challenge was an utter failure for me – of course on the week I make the challenge all about physical movement, I get incredibly run down and spend two days in bed. Because Murphy’s Law loves me! How did you go? #2015TheYearOfMe Weekly Challenge 4 I’m going with a less physically […]
What I Loved: Foodie Lyfe
Yesterday was an odd day for me. Maybe for you too, I don’t know. I saw this tweet: Just got schooled on my FB page about what pork crackling is. Seriously, don’t people have better things to do. Like anything. — Bianca Wordley (@bigwordsblog) February 14, 2015 Which lead me to […]
What Do You Find Hard To Write?
For someone who has always written a lot, I actually didn’t like English class at school very much. I didn’t really like the rules, the restrictions and other people’s (ok, the teacher’s) opinions on what was good or not. I just wanted to write. What I hated the most was Poetry. Which got me […]
Third Birthday!
I was going to let this quietly slip by, but it felt a little wrong. Today is the third birthday of 26 Years and Counting. I had originally planned to hold a big giveaway and virtual party as a thank you to everyone who stops by my little corner of the world, but with […]
