2017, certainly in my part of the world has been a year of transformation and renewal. My biggest challenges have also been my biggest achievements. Previous years of beavering away has been recognised. And this year, I’ve taken leaps of faith, personally and professionally. Here’s my year in review. Started...
I don’t officially leave the country until Sunday morning. But while I have the hubby doing some packing and a beer next to me…..wait, did I say that out loud?! I meant to say ‘tea’. đŸ™‚ I’m getting in a few farewells. I’m terrified. I’m scared. Why oh why did...

Seems like my days are running away from me. Last week flew by and I haven’t posted for #blogjune in six days. Whoopsie daisy. In my defence, here’s how last week went down…. Wednesday 22 June QUT project role – 8.30am to 4pm – catch ups, meetings, providing project updates,...
