I have an Offspring confession….No it’s not that I am in love with Asher or the character Patrick – though from pretty good sources he is pretty darn hot!….

I may have NEVER watched an episode of the show.

I know! Don’t dislike me please!

Last night there was so many people on twitter and Facebook talking about it! Felt a tiny bit like I was missing out! But you know what it is really hard to get into something that you haven’t watched from the beginning. The only show I have done that with is Gray’s! But I did go back and watch all the episodes I had missed.

When Offspring first came it was on at different times or on the weekend and not really suitable for a country busy girl to actually settle down and watch. It also doesn’t help that I rarely sit and watch TV at night. I would rather fluff around in my craft room or sit at the computer and chat to you guys. Also I have to hijack the remote if I actually want to watch a show as hubby watches nothing that is remotely like good TV. I can not watch another reality cop show!

I like to watch Criminal Minds and Bones. When they have new episodes and I actually like this new show A Place to Call Home. But I missed this week putting kids to bed and missing my chance to get to the remote first!

So tell me what am I missing out on? Should I borrow the whole last how many seasons and catch up? Or should I be happy that I’m not following the crowd? Or should I actually be even happier that I don’t watch because my MIL is really into it!

{WW} Footy Weekend

Just over a week ago we headed to Perth after Hockey for a Footy Weekend for the boys. Hayden and Rich were heading to Patterson Stadium to watch Hayden and Rich’s team the Fremantle Dockers beat Collingwood. We prepared everyone for the fact that Hayden might not like the footy. It is loud, you have to sit still for quite a while and our seats are very high in the stadium (but with a great view!) He LOVED the footy  and wants to go again – this time he is going to last longer than just before three-quarter time. So proud of him and also of hubby who volunteered to leave early missing a great last quarter.

On the Sunday was Mother’s Day. I would’ve loved to spend it with my Mum or all three of my children but I did get great cuddles from my youngest two.

Party Politics

May 21, 2013 Celebrate

As a 30 something year old if I have a birthday party I can invite my friends and the people I want to attend. As a 4 or 6-year-old the party politics for parents is a minefield. Does it need to be this way. Quite frankly – and I may not be popular – I [...]

The Dinosaur Cape Giveaway on the blog is one of the most popular I have ever held. I know my kids look very cute dressed up, but the quality of the cape and how great it would be for any child to escape into another world in made it very popular. Just for Teapots and [...]
