Snail mail is rapidly becoming a vintage concept…even those horrible bills are disappearing from our post boxes and appearing in our emails instead. I must admit that often I will go to our post box to find it empty…clearly I need to do some more online shopping! But what I really miss is the fun […]

By Sarah in General, Liver Transplant, Thyroid Cancer Tags: 15th wedding anniversary, milestone, wedding anniversary
Today is our fifteenth wedding anniversary, a milestone that almost slipped past without either of us realising! We have never been ones to celebrate our anniversary…being in April, we were often away on holidays anyway. But 15 years deserves some recognition!

This weekend, we came across something we have never experienced before. By chance, we discovered the Queenscliff Rod Run 2017, which is held annually by the Geelong Street Rodders!

Another Birthday…Another Year
By Sarah in General 2 Comments Tags: my birthday
So today is my birthday…another year survived and another step closer to the big 50! It’s funny, as I get older, I feel younger…like I am still in my mid-thirties. But the grey in my hair, and the lines on my face tell the real truth. My body has been somewhat badly behaved this last […]
