School holidays have started here in Qld. I never use to like school holidays but with all the boys at school I love them. I love the late starts, the no chaos, I love them being home and then I love them going back to school again.
We don’t want to get carried away now do we.
These school holidays are short so I always treat them like a rest, come this time of year my boys seem to be so whingy. The year is almost at close and everyone is tired. This time of year everything is a drama. So these school holidays and even the weekends towards the end of the year I don’t like rushing around. I don’t plan too much activity but I do still however do a plan of attack, but that’s mainly just to stop what are we doing today mum. It’s also just to keep a budget in check.
So how was your weekend? Tell me would love to know.
Anyway, it’s almost summer here. The nights are so cool but the days a sun has that summer bite and yet I’m still in jeans because my legs just look urgh and I know I should be grateful that I have them, they work and that there is two of them but I’m considering public safety. Oops slight divergent but anyway these are the things from across the web that have caught my eye
1. I made my first donation to Rize Up yesterday. Rize up RizeUp Australia is a community driven organisation dedicated to educating, empowering and ending domestic and family violence. So yesterday I went online to Kmart brought a few things for a bedroom and sent them through. It was nice knowing I was contributing some nice things {and Kmart has some great stuff} to create a haven for someone who hasn’t had one in awhile. You can help and support Rizeup here. However, if you or someone you know needs help now please contact 000 or the domestic violence hotline on 1800 737 732.
2. Food hacks that are really good like the waffle hashbrowns and one-minute icing. Here.
3. 15 tips to living on one wage here.
4. A bride took her own wedding pictures. I love the simplicity of them. Here.
5. One of my children has quirks and its been a long process of discovery and understanding. I have discovered recently there is seven senses. I only discovered this because I could never understand his heavy-footed step, the accidental slamming of doors, cupboards and draws and his need to chew everything. Have a read. Here.
