This is a Serious Blog and from my heart!!

Today happens to be Anzac Day!! It is a national day of remembrance in Australia and New Zealand, and is commemorated by both countries on 25 April every year!!

The acronym ANZAC stands for Australian and New Zealand Army Corps!!

Anzac Day marks the anniversary of the first major military action fought by Australian and New Zealand forces during the First World War and commemorates the 60,000 Australians and 18,000 New Zealanders who died during that wa...

Bunny's a pun on Funny lol

It's Easter Eve (if there's such a thing) and I've managed to get my little daughter (who's still a believer in the Easter Bunny) off to sleep relatively early. 

My problem as I see it is, I'm over exhausted and want to collapse in the bed next to her, but my "Easter Bunny" duties still have to be done. (only one more kid to get past the 'believing' stage and I'm FREE!!)  

My dilemma is, take a risk and go to sleep (with an alarm set to wake me at some ungodly hour) or...

BEWARE THIS BLOG IS LONG!!
 

I arrived home this morning after a fantastic night with my adored G-Unit!! I was buzzing around on a high, because tonight was our planned 'End of Summer Drinks' night out (It isn't really the end of summer, I just came up with this slogan as a reason for us to gather and party). The evening was touted as a "Let Loose" night for everyone to let their hair down. (of course I was giddy that Mr. Pecks was attending.......if I wasn't married I'd attempt to tap that ass...

Just when you think you've got it all figured out, someone comes along and pulls the rug from underneath you!!

Today happens to be my wonderful Husbands 44th birthday. He wasn't in a very good mood most of the day, so when he asked me what I wanted for dinner, I suggested "Sizzler's". (I was thinking of my diet requirements......Thank You!!)

We needed to squeeze my daughters soccer training into this mix as well. So, of course, things got heated as we made our plans for the evening. (Rushing ba...

I decided to skip yesterdays blog because my day was a sleepy blur!! Plus, I wanted to fast forward to today because today happens to be Valentine's Day!!

"Valentine's Day" means a lot of different things, to a lot of different people, and is celebrated accordingly!! The dictionary also gives different definitions!! My dictionary defines Valentine's Day as a day for the exchange of tokens of affection.

The name 'Valentine' derives from the word 'Valens' which means (worthy). So this tells me th...

Today is Australia Day and although I'm not technically Australian, I'm proud to say I live here. This is a beautiful country!! I am thankful everyday, that I have been allowed to bring my family to live in this wonderful country and the beautiful people have opened their hearts and accepted me. (most of them anyway!!)

I moved to this country 9 an half years ago. I moved here with 2 purposes. One was to live closer to my mother, who happens to be the only living Grandparent on both sides of ou...

Today I cracked my eyes open at 530am. I didn't want to wake up yet so I forced them shut. Of course it didn't work. So I jumped out of bed and headed towards my favourite room in the house (No.....not the toilet.....some of you may think) the kitchen. If choosing what I was having for breakfast was my biggest decision today, then today would be a good day. I have a full agenda which will require some thinking and juggling!!.

I was about to bolt out the door when the phone rang. It was my moth...

I'm up.....it's 7am......and today is the last day of 2009. I've got a busy day ahead of me, with a special occasion planned tonight. I seriously don't know how I'm going to fit it all in. First stop.....Weight Watchers with Pinky. I'm bad.......very very bad!! I haven't done well with my points this week, so I contemplated taking one of my mothers "water pills" so that I would look good on the scale. That's bad....I  know (I didn't do it). I tried my hardest to convince Sam that we could wai...

I slowly opened my eyes and to my surprise and fright, my husband was standing over me looking like a vampire getting ready to feed on his prey. I just about jumped out of my skin. It pisses me off that he was trying to wake me up at 4am for a love session. So I let him know that I wasn't impressed!! This stopped him cold in his tracks. I casually rolled over and went back to sleep for another 3 hours.
When I got out of bed at 7am, my husband suspected that I had something planned for the day....

Christmas has arrived!! It's 2:55am and I'm still up finishing Santa's work. I was loading the final pressies under the tree, when my phone alerted me that I had a message. I looked at my phone to see who the hell would be texting me at nearly 3am and to my surprise I'd received an email from Mr. B. His opening line was "Merry Christmas"......you might not find that unusual considering after all, that it is Christmas in Australia however, I find it unusual because he's in the USA and it's not...
