I've been blogging since 2008 and I do it because it keeps me sane.If I didn't blog, my head would explode. If you like your blogs sugar-coated and pretty looking then this is not for you. I write about life as a solo parent dealing with mental illness and recovering from long term emotional abuse. I live with two boy-children and three cats and I like wine. A lot.

    When we do things like this, I feel a lot less guilty about my parenting 😉

    I have such bad memories of Mossman Gorge and my heart still catches in my throat every time I see a picture of it. My daughter nearly drowned there and it still makes me feel ill to think about it. But then I stop, breath and remember how utterly gorgeous it is. Spectacular.

    Oh, wow, that must have been extremely traumatic for you. It is such a beautiful place, though. I have bad memories of some places that I’m not prepared to revisit and others that I make myself to.

This house hunting business is exhausting, when you have to travel so far. Three more trips next week. At least Sam is proving to be a fun companion.
