The Boy and The Mother love Tiger Woods. Both- along with many other golfers in the world, surely- will willingly stay up way into the night or wake up at odd times in the morning to watch the masterclass golfer play in a final round. Her doctor/family friend recently got back from Tiger Watch live [...]

Smartest Friend is back from the States on summber break and while she’s very much the same, she’s brought a little more Americana back with her; namely her love affair with American football and NBA. It was tres entertaining hearing her and The Boy go back and forth over dinner about NBA throwing names, stats [...]

This girl’s favourite nephew lives in Melbourne. Truth be told, she’s not met the nephew in person (the last time she visited her cousin was still pregnant, and the last time he visited this girl was ill so she stayed away from the baby.), but her cousin posts his pictures onto a daily blog so [...]

The Parents, The Boy and this girl have a standing arrangement to play golf every Sunday. The Father will book them a slot at one of the five golf courses their clubs own and they’d play couple vs couple with the score pretty even thus far. They are all kind enough to give this girl [...]
missing Cooper

It was a terribly long and difficult day today and this girl sits here nursing a pounding headache and a deep annoyance at the contractors that are traipsing about her house.
And when she accidently clicked on this, it made her want to cry. It was a photo blog started by The Princess and The Prefect [...]
finding space

When this girl was living with The Parents, she had the room in the attic which meant that- for all intents and purposes- she was neatly tucked away in her own little corner of the sky. She had a little haven that was untouched and unsullied by the hustle and bustle that defined the household.
When [...]

This girl work today with the worst body ache, a headache, clammy skin, a slight temperature and mood as low as the depth of the abyss.
The Boy decided he had enough and sent her to the doctors who gave her a blood test, a urine test and a good once over. The test results aren’t [...]
post christmas frenzy

It never fails to baffle this girl to ponder how it is that the year is almost at its end. Didn’t it just start a while ago? Sure seems that way from where she is standing.
Christmas came and went amidst the mad rush to sort the office out (for 12 people no less) and scrambling [...]

One supposes that this girl and her friends reach this stage in their lives, it becomes defined by alot of relationship changes and milestones. Its the time this girl receives far too many wedding invitations for her to actually attend (she does try her best to get to most of them, though her traveling schedule [...]
three new stuff everyone should own

Over the last six months, this girl has come across a whole bunch of stuff that she is so deeply in love with and have decided that- on some level- she cannot live without them.
1. Origins.
This girl has notoriously sensitive skin and while she’s plugged for Bio-Essence before, she’s now also adds Origins to [...]

This girl’s cousin, Hazy Day gave birth a few months back to Baby D two months ahead of her scheduled due date. When she was visiting Down Under earlier this year, Hazy Day was just into her second trimester and was still active and totally game to take this girl shopping and eating, seeing how [...]
called to the breakfast table, again

This girl spends alot of time staring and watching from the sidelines these days.
Its mainly by choice that she takes a step out of the usual hodgepodge of things that she finds herself embroiled in. For a while it was work and by extension the lives- the oh so tumultuous lives- of the people she [...]
In quiet reflection: Cooper (2006-2008)

Driving out to another one of her meetings, this girl gets a call from The Princess telling her their feisty, hyperactive two year old German Shepherd had become suddenly paralyzed the night before and that things didn’t look promising. “We may need to put him down,” was all she said. “Keep me posted, I’ll go [...]
turning 28

Quietly, with close friends and family, this girl turned 28 on the 8th of August. It went without much fanfare and hoopla; only a laughter filled lunch with Smartest Friend and Hot Babe with Zwieback popping in towards the end to join the festivities and then dinner with The Boy and The Family at their [...]
