I’m grateful to be living on the edge of town, and taking the dog for a walk always makes me appreciate the area so much more. We only need to walk about 100 metres, past about 6 houses, with a dog so excited she pulls us along, and we’re on the edge of town and…
I’m grateful for two key people today – firstly my mum, who called early this morning as Dad was bringing sheep down to Dubbo. She offered to help in any way, and wanted to read some of my book. I was editing all day, technically just adding quotes, but we kept finding typo’s that have…
Another celebration of the simple things in life – which aren’t so simple in many places around the world. I’m grateful for the wonderful food, and easy access we have to quality products here in Australia. I created this platter last night, and of course have plenty left in the fridge for the next week!…

This gave me the opportunity to see what they thought, and their answers surprised me. …
I’m grateful for the school my son attends. I’m so thankful for the staff and school community who make the school what it is. I just attended the School Association meeting and was delighted to hear all the progress since the last one I attended (Term One I believe). The school has been granted the…
I am grateful to be driving home after two and a half weeks in 3 locations. It’s fun to have a mobile office and be able to work from anywhere. However, there is no place like home! A lovely moment I was grateful for tonight was at dinner when Ethan acknowledged the waitress saying “You…
It seems that on a day like Day 80, I should be writing something really profound, but today was one of those days where you just do your work and chose to be grateful in the moment. I’m facing a few challenges at the moment, so I’m grateful for supportive friends, grateful that this week…
