I had been waiting since before Christmas to travel to Merrylands, a suburb in Western Sydney that's around three and a half miles from where I live in Wentworthville. I had found out a couple weeks prior that my Samsung Galaxy 10.5" tablet had been fixed; it needed a replacement battery. There's more to this … Continue reading Long Day – 3rd Jan 18

Today’s antics – 7th December 2017
MILLY Milly refused to go to toilet before bed last night, so I put on her nappy in case she had an accident through the night. This morning, Milly was in such a rush to go to the toilet that I'd forgotten she was still wearing her nappy. A flashback of the night before reminded … Continue reading Today’s antics – 7th December 2017
Feline Feeding Frenzy
Having 4 cats, to ensure that everyone has their fair share, I pair them up, but because one of the pairs isn't equal (Flick has a cleft lip and an under bite and TC is a food hog), I always try to give Flick a head start on the food. So today, after I prep … Continue reading Feline Feeding Frenzy
Doggie Bread
Deciding I'd had enough of seeing the dried up cow knuckle in the loungeroom which the girls had lost interest in, I picked it up and decided to throw it outside, knowing that once it's been out there gathering muck and nature, Cleo will regain interest in it. As I'm about to throw it out … Continue reading Doggie Bread
“Do you hate fat people?”
I've always admired Michelle Bridge because of what she's done on Australia's Biggest Loser, but watching a teaser for an article on 60 Minutes, something was said that affected me just now without me realising I could still be that sensitive. I don't know if it was taken out of context as there were … Continue reading “Do you hate fat people?”
I’m not that hungry
Whining sound to my left. I look down and Cleo's giving me a sad face. "You want toilet Cleo?" Still sad face *Sigh* "Ok, I'll let you out." I walk to the back door and turn around. Cleo's not there. She followed me in the loungeroom, and through the kitchen.. where'd she go? I peek … Continue reading I’m not that hungry
Cleo’s latest antics
Episode one: This morning, I was just opening my eyes at the same time that Cleo must have woke up because she started her morning routine of rolling around on her bed. Then with her fogged up eyes, she glanced in my direction, and in my bad timing, I had lifted my head the slightest … Continue reading Cleo’s latest antics
Self Reflection
For my friends on Facebook, you won't need to read this, it's only been altered slightly just to look tidier. In recent days, I've decided to go around the 40 year home owner drought by buying a plot of land and building my own house (albeit with professional builders since my own movements are limited), … Continue reading Self Reflection
The Low FODMAP Diet
After being diagnosed recently with a fatty liver and pancreas, no doubt both exacerbated by my history of Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS), I visited a Gastroenterologist today. After a quick feel around to test I had no other bowel issues (aside from what's already been diagnosed), and a few basic questions to give him a … Continue reading The Low FODMAP Diet
Dietary Changes
For the past several months, I've been training myself to eat smaller portion sizes. (It's taken me a long time because growing up, I got Hungarian/German portion sizes in my household, translating that to modern day Aussie portions, one old fashioned European portion is enough to feed four people.) Years of getting sick from … Continue reading Dietary Changes
