    Dear Diary: Monks & Markets, Podiatry & Podcasts

    After my last Dear Diary, I had a friend ask if I was seeing a physio for my knee. I explained to her that I’ve recently become entirely disheartened with physios & podiatrists, so no, I wasn’t seeing one for this. After seeing them for a lifetime for all sorts of things, this recent bout of knee issues has seen me burn through 3 physios and a hell of a lot of money without any real results (I stuck each one out for long enough, I promise!). I had 3-4 fat pad impingement in the last year, and the advice…

    Hands Down The Best Dad & Daughter Dance I’ve Ever Seen

    Hands Down The Best Dad & Daughter Dance I’ve Ever Seen

Mikayla met her to-be husband when they were both members of the Brigham Young University International Folk Dance team, so she was no stranger to the dance floor, but it was her Dad who stole the show. Normally the thought of your Dad MC Hammer dancing at your wedding would send shivers down your spine and would end up on YouTube for all the…

    Dear Diary: Bung Knees & A Flying Niffler

    Dear Diary: Bung Knees & A Flying Niffler

    Firstly, apologies for this being a day late :(. I like to get these out on Sunday as a summary of the week, but nekminnit it was Monday! This week has been a weird one – some emotional ups & downs, let downs & inconveniences, but all in all it was manageable, and I was really glad for how close I am to my family this week. When I hear of people who don’t get along with their parents, for whatever reason, I feel so amazingly sad for them. Mine are my bedrock, and I can’t imagine going through life without…

    Adventure Time: National Rhododendron Gardens, Olinda

    When I was a kid I remember Mum & Dad taking me to the National Rhododendron Gardens in Olinda, Victoria, and I recall having fun, but that’s about it. So when Shona and I decided to head back up there as fully fledged adults and semi-functioning adults, I was excited to see if it was as entertaining as I remembered!
