I stayed home to look after Jac on Wednesday. Of course you guys know I love her, but she drove me crazy! :) She felt pretty good following her procedure and kept wanting to do things around the house rather than rest and take it easy as she’d been directed by the cardio. A few […]
On Tuesday, Jac had the procedure done to fix her heart. Those of you who’ve been readers for a while will know that Jac’s had some heart issues in the last year or so (click here to read the related posts). I don’t know why, but I didn’t tell anyone about it apart from my […]
It’s been a full-on week. There were two main events. First – I had a job interview on Monday. The second event took place on Tuesday, and was the main main event. I’ll tell you all about it in the next post. Don’t worry, everything is OK. My job interview was for a higher level […]
Hey guys, it’s been another terribly busy week. I am running so behind with posts – I haven’t even told you about our family lunch from last Sunday. We’re going out to dinner this evening with friends at a restaurant and I hope I will be able to take photos of the food – but […]
***EDIT: Click to read my eldest sister’s eulogy for Mama. Thank you, everyone, for your kind comments and emails. I have new food photos to post and hope to do so shortly.*** I held off posting as soon as Mum rang in case other family members who read this blog hadn’t heard yet. My grandma […]
***News flash*** Jac’s liver function test result is good. Laparoscopic cholecystectomy (gall bladder removal keyhole surgery) is tentatively scheduled for 13th Feb. Returning to surgeon’s office on 5th Feb to sign paperwork, discuss details etc.

Just when I thought I was sort of managing finishing the thesis while trawling daily through job ads, writing job […]

And Haz, I’ve replied to your question (well Lell’s question :)) about the turkey stuffing and flavouring the bird here. Eleanor, I’ve replied re: the turkey thigh roast here. I’d just like to take a moment […
Poor Jac has been sick overnight and for most of today. It must’ve been around 4am when, still in bed all dopey and half-asleep, I thought I heard the sound of someone being violently ill in the loo. Unfortunately, it was not a dream, and someone had indeed been sick in the loo. Jac’s been […]
I’m running really behind with posts again this week. I’ve been working on my thesis conclusion waaaay too long – I need to finish it ASAP. It’s going to be another fun (not) day. [I began writing this post this morning – but have only been able to post this afternoon] Monday was sort of […]
