    WOW. Beautiful images! So sad though. I am happy to hear you are high enough to not get flooded!

    Congrats on making it to the half-way point! It was horrifying watching the news about all floods -- I'm glad things have settled in a bit for everyone.

    With a landscape like yours (those skies!!!) I would be doing a lot of landscape too.

    I too will be hitting the half way point near the end of February.
    Your landscape photos are amazing. The flooding is so devastating-I'm glad you are safe, but sorry for your friends.
    Look forward to seeing where you are in a month.

It has been a many a year since I last wrote here, so why start to write again? Well life is busy and there is not much time in those days that I take to reflect. This is something I want to change. My life is not amazing, spectacular or Instagram worthy but it full of ordinariness. So what is an ordinary life, well it is messy, complicated, challenging and unique. My life can not be copied but it can be relatable. I am a nearly fifty woman, working full time, with teenage children, trying to do everything but not feeling like I succeed at anything. I look at the lives at others and wish for a fraction of those lives but then realise that they may be thinking about my life like that. I would like to use this forum to reflect on these musings, reflect on being a mother to teenagers, living with a partner that has a chronic illness, my attempts to find a work/life balance and working with young children. So if no-one reads this then that is ok with me. This is for me, for my...

Fruitful Saturday

Well I have finished creative boot camp today and throughly enjoyed the experience. It was great to put my brain into that creative gear. Although I did not get into the journalling side of the experience as I would have liked just thing through the prompts was an enjoyment in itself. I am hoping to do a similar thing in July so we will see the path that leads me on. This afternoon the kids and I went to Spotlight (A warehouse type store for craft and fabric) not a good move as every man and his dog was there as they had 20% off but we had things to get- things to make bookmarks for the kids and wool for me. We managed to get out unscathed but my wallet was considerably lighter. First task getting home was to make vanilla cupcakes - Isabella made up a recipe it was good but needed a few adjustments. So off to the net to seek out a recipe - done. The kids helped and made a mountain of mess - that is still waiting to be cleaned (I am not a domestic goddess). Whilst they were in the oven...

What's your footprint?

I have just started back at uni for 2013. One of my subjects is Society, environment and health and one that I am going to enjoy immensely. Why? Because the subject is right up my alley - teaching children how to begin living sustainable lives and how to become responsible global citizens. As part of this subject I have to do an online test that measures my ecological footprint. After doing my calculation, I saw the need 2.1 planets to sustain my current lifestyle. I was quite disappointed to get this result as I actively try to live a sustainable life. Over the next 8 weeks one of the challenges is to take steps to minimise my ecological footprint. One area that was highlighted as contributing to my footprint was my consumption of red meat. That is something I can try to do as well as minimising how much I drive the car. You can have a go at trying the test  here . Image from:  http://www.wrsc.org/attach_image/your-ecological-footprint
