Harveys At Home

Degress.  Celcius.  In mid September.
Listen to me Weather, it isn’t Summer yet.  I want Spring.  I like Spring.  A nice 27° would be a good start.
Play nicer tomorrow.
Thanks.

Been drinking too much water of late (yes, there is such a thing!).  So, I have started drinking soda water and red cordial.  It’s delicious and cold and [...]

Firstly, an update on Owen and his hand.  Our hospital visit was good this morning.  The surgeon had already had a look at the x-rays from Saturday and had a look at O’s hand today and was happy to leave it as is, in the same half cast until next Thursday.  If the cast hadn’t [...]

This morning I dropped Owen off to preschool and then decided today was the day to sit down and finally put all of his birthday cards in something other than a wicker basket that has sat on my desk for, oh, since the Boy’s second birthday.  Yep, I know.  He’s three and a bit now, [...]

Last night I had the best nights’ sleep I’ve had in, well, 7 months really.  I think I only got up to go to the toilet twice (’cause you all needed to know that, right?!).  And for the first night in many weeks I think I breathed through my nose the whole night, no dry, [...]

Since my I whinged my way through that last post, I thought this one needed to be a little more on the positive side!
It has been a lovely day today with the sun shining for the whole day.  We have stayed home just doing “stuff”.  Nothing really important or impressive, just bits and pieces and [...]

Carrying on the theme from yesterday, here’s my list for today.  I’ve actually crossed all but numbers 4,5 and 8 already today and it hasn’t even cracked midday yet.
Since my parents are arriving tonight, I can guarantee you there won’t be a list for the rest of the week.  I’m sure we are going to [...]

I’ve been reading Rachel’s latest post at Small Notebook about list making and actioning of the list in question.  I am a list person.  I don’t mind admitting to this.  I live to create lists, but like Rachel I’m a little less interested (OK, a lot less) in the doing of the list.  But here’s [...]

Leanne from Journeyer’s Chronicles has tagged me for a Getting to Know You meme.  I’m usually really slack with these and tend to leave them too late and then think it’s pointless filling them in.  But I have made an effort with this one, mainly because the questions are slightly different to last last few [...]

Big Brother Cancelled…
This is the best news I’ve read all day!
(Can you just tell I don’t like the show?!)

Since I usually have anywhere from an hour, up to two hours free when Owen is napping each day, I’ve been grabbing my lap top, putting my feet up on the couch and doing a lot a bit of blog surfing.  Mainly I’ve been focusing on new recipe ideas (making more from scratch), budgeting clues/ideas [...]
