Stepford Gal! Where have you been?I’ve had a lot of thinking to do and with the COVID related cuckoo going on right now, it’s finally starting to settle in Victoria, we have managed to have no community cases in more than a month! I’ve had plenty of mindsets and values I’ve been thinking through and…… Continue reading Christmas Contentment: How To Really Appreciate The Holidays
I’m honestly not sure if I have mentioned this somewhere before in my previous posts though I’m quite the avid gamer (cue all the funky comments) when I’m into it. I can go into phases where I don’t play at all and then become intensely interested in particular titles. I tend to enjoy more solo…… Continue reading That Stepford Gal Video Gaming – What Am I Playing Now? – August 2020
I can proudly and luckily say I’m one of the people that have barely been affected by the way COVID-19 has struck the world. One of the things that contribute to it is the way Australia has approached the quarantine process, it’s succeeded, though I believe something can definitely be said about my state, Victoria,…… Continue reading What We Can Learn From The Pandemic – A Domestic Perspective
How is everyone holding up during such a stressful, unusual time? With the outbreak and the impact it’s had all over the world, basically everyone has had some sort of consequence for it. I am very fortunate to be where I am, since Australia is one of the few countries that have managed to contain…… Continue reading Families Together Under Social Isolation: Why So Difficult?
I never celebrate this day, not at all . While the idea in itself is admirable, celebrating women and their contribution to history, the execution and message almost always is wrong. I do believe women have made a great contribution to history – they are thinkers, mothers and carers who have worked hard to populate…… Continue reading International Women’s Day – An Excuse To Self-Pander For Most
Happy February in the New Year! Once again, I’ve been away for the last month as it’s been a heavy emotional month for me and I must apologise, I took a break from a lot of the things I did online, not just this. December was already a rush of a month and it just…… Continue reading A New Year With A New Look: How To Makeover Your Living Space
Hello all! It’s been a while (I know) and I apologise for my absence, the last couple of months have been chaotic in both good and not so good ways. It just seems to be settling now, right at Christmas and I’m very grateful. I hope you all are enjoying the holidays with the people…… Continue reading Merry Christmas! Give Yourself The Best Gift
If there’s anything I’ve definitely objected to as a part of modern Western culture through the years consistently – – it’s the wasteful notion of living by yourself as a social cue. Now, I’ve had friends who had to leave home because of terrible situations, especially with family and those are all fully justifiable. It’s…… Continue reading Young Adults: The Case For Staying Home
As some of you may know, I only partially grew up with a mother, my father is a single father who raised my sibling and I. I’ve learned some homemaking skills from my mother in the past, though I would say the bulk of my knowledge (cooking, organising) was learned from my grandmother. I was…… Continue reading 5 Useful Skills To Learn & Practice Now For Aspiring Homemakers
Hello hello! This busy month has been filled with more work than I expected, both in and out of the home (I’m bracing from both sides!), yet somehow I’ve had some time to read. I held back on posting somewhat earlier since I wanted to be able to read more of these books (or finish…… Continue reading What Is That Stepford Gal Reading Right Now? – September 2019
