Housekeeping


School holidays are upon us. That means visitors and trips away, swimming lessons and a very special birthday (six!). A break from routine.

I continue to unpack and rearrange, slowly and with a lot of procrastination. I calculated this is the 22nd home I've lived in in my life (not counting the student dorm in Wollongong, the staff digs on South Molle Island, various couches in London, a motorhome at the back of a hotel in central Scotland, the Berlin backpackers I worked and lived at for three months, and my very generous sister's place several times over in my 20s.) That's a lot of newspaper and cardboard.

Rumour has it Google Reader is on its last legs. You can follow Typically Red at Bloglovin' by clicking here. There's the staight-into-your-inbox option over there on the right. Or stay up to date with blog and shop happenings on Facebook. I'm also (intermittently) on Instagram now too. 

I think that may be everything...what was that I said about procrastination?

Have a lovely weekend. A little sunshine would be nice, yes?

  2. Yes a little sunshine would be lovely.

    When I moved two years ago, I would set myself several short periods of unpacking each day and would work hard in that time. Then a reward, a game, a cup of coffee, a read etc. However, I didn't have three little ones to help distract me.

    All that unpacking will get done eventually...says she who still has unpacked boxes from her last move four years ago!

  4. Funny you should talk about number of homes lived in... My magic number is 31. I worked it out only a few weeks ago! Again not counting student stuff... Can't believe Lola is almost six. This growing up stuff is terrifying. x

  6. I was just counting up how many places I've lived in, not quite 22, but not far off either, (including staff quarters on Hook Island- maybe we were neighbours :-)
    Am hoping for a little sun too. So, so wet.
