Ophs, sorry bloggers, forgot to tell you I was taking a break. You guessed it, to Hawkes Bay. We returned to Cape South where we’ve been going every Easter since we came to NZ to live. Once again it didn’t disappoint.
We dined at Craggy Range Winery (reported as one of the [...]

Photoblogging backlog
Posted in Photoblogging, Poor excuses for not blogging on February 14, 2008 | Leave a Comment »
Well bloggers I’m afraid that my holiday photoblogging is going to be pretty restricted until Bob comes back from his South Island tour – he’s been the master photographer and I need to pinch some of his images to give you a real flavour of Golden Bay. In the meantime, here’s a taste of the [...]
Festive Domesticity
Posted in Poor excuses for not blogging on December 26, 2007 | Leave a Comment »
I know that this sounds like a cheap excuse for not blogging but it really has been full on. Festive domesticity is always a challenge but for this domestic executive in this year it’s been more challenging than most.
Fortunatly my just in time methodology served me well and we didn’t miss out on any [...]
Spring cold

It’s an official excuse for not blogging for a few days – I’ve been struck down with a lurgy. I think it’s just a bad cold but as you get older you get less resilient to even the common cold. Having been as grumpy as a girl can be I became officially ill [...]
Yup, still here

I know it’s been a while. I’ve been crook. Flu don’t you know. So bad I had to stay off work.
But I’m back and entering that manic phase a couple of days before a holiday trying to get everything done in time and kidding myself in the process that I really will [...]
Not gone walkabout

No I’m not gone Australian and gone walkabout. It’s been a difficult last week or so with bitterly cold weather, gadding about to Christchurch, rubbish time at work and a busy weekend at the Theatre and choosing stuff for house.
Excuses, excuses I hear you cry. No, just reasons.
No houseblogging this week [...]
Domestic fit out
Posted in Poor excuses for not blogging on June 13, 2007 | 1 Comment »
OK, I know I’ve become very tardy with my blogging in recent weeks. The fact of the matter is that being a domestic executive is sooooo time consuming. I’ve got two full time jobs at the moment, the one that earns the money and the one that spends it.
I’ve been totally engrossed in planning and [...]
Shattered domesticity
Posted in Poor excuses for not blogging on June 2, 2007 | Leave a Comment »
Apologies readers for the genuine break in blogging this week. Our computer decided to have a meltdown which has been an all consuming worry. The offending hard disk is still sitting in limbo for a recovery operation but we’re up and running again in the meantime.
I’ve often mentioned how important the internet is to [...]
What comes around….
Posted in Poor excuses for not blogging on May 25, 2007 | Leave a Comment »
Avid readers of my blog may remember earlier in the year that this executive-domestic managed new heights of frustration with interference and mind changing of colossal proportions by the powers to be where I work. But, hey I got over it at the time so that’s all good.
So almost 6 months later looks like people [...]
