Review: The Diary of the Wimpy Kid – Dog Days
So I know your all wondering what I thought of this movie? Dion and I decided that we would take the kids to the 6:40pm session at the Caloundra Cinemas tonight as we have an almost 10 year old who has loved the Wimpy kid series and was so looking forward to Dog Days coming out. Its the start of the September school holidays and we usually start the break off with a bit of a bang! Well a movie! How would I review it? Well, lets just say that I didn’t enjoy it as much as I enjoyed the first two movies in the series. Yes there…

I know what your problem is…!
It was so amazing to be asked to go to a group for Mums in Business – especially when your in the process of looking for ‘The Right Direction’. A friend of mine has asked me a few times now if I would go, and although I was planning to go, I wasn’t able to go for one reason or another – till today. Actually its been Jaden who has prevented me from going! Yep I am blaming the boy! This time, I made it a priority to go – obviously I would put my kids first if I had to, but I made a plan of action,…

What is love…?
Thank you Pinterest! I’ve been thinking about how to word this blog post as I am not actually speaking about anyone in particular. So don’t go getting your knickers in a knot, or your noses out of joint! I have just simply been thinking about the idea that ‘Love’ is directly related to the word ‘kindness’ and ‘ACTION!’ How can someone say that they love you…but treat you as though your not necessary! Does this mean that the word ‘Love’ has strings attached to it. Well yes, I believe that Love does have strings! The strings are called relationship. Not necessarily an intimate relationship, but lets say…

What’s going on inside you?
Isn’t it funny, some of the conversations that come up when chatting with your kids? Just the other day, we were just all chatting about life and what we liked and somehow I was able to throw in the comment that inside of me is a very fit, babe-alicious, fashionable, fun yummy mummy – screaming to be let out! Something I am absolutely not feeling at the moment…but there it was on the table. There was silence for a minute – girls deep in thought, when my youngest little girl Chanel (6) says, ‘well inside of me is a very rich and talented fashion designer…..who really wants to…

Womens Lifestyle Expo
September 14 and 15 2012 As you can see I am a little late posting about this fantastic event. I have been processing what I would like to say about this event as I really wanted to give the women’s expo the praise that it deserved. Let me tell you – IT WAS FANTASTIC! Now, if you know me – you know that I Looooove womens expo’s. I love kids expo’s and markets, I love Work at Home Mums showing off their wares, I love hearing about women who started with nothing and have worked their business into a massive empire! Women who are inspired to go into…

Did you miss me…!
I bet your thinking that Mischievious Mum (me) went M.I.A? Well I am back. I have to admit that I did have a mini holiday and I found myself thinking about my blog and what I wanted to do with it! My mind was going crazy – I wrote many of my ideas down on paper – and I am still adding to the list! First of all, however, I am going to tell you the quick version of my week away…well not quite a week. The Microsoft Tech Ed conference was back again for another year down on the Gold Coast. We love the Tech Ed conference as we…

Oompa Loompa’s live at Kmart Caloundra
I am guilty of lying to my children. I have encouraged them to believe in Santa, the Tooth fairy, the Easter Bunny and Oompa Loompa’s! I made the lie more authentic by creating an email address – not for the Oompa Loompa’s, but the others. However, because i find it hard to swallow that these mysteriously pretend characters get all the praise for our hard work of buying our kids their Christmas presents….Santa and the Easter Bunny have found themselves affected by the GFC. In fact all three of them are having some money woes. Santa and his friends come and leave their wares, but the value of the gifts…

Birthday Present Ideas!
Ok, a while back I said to hubby that I would love to own a unit at the Circle on Caville – only $650 K. Not sure why he scoffed, because we were all talking about what we wanted for our birthdays. Now I did also say that I wouldn’t mind if I never got another birthday or Christmas present EVER again if I was given this as a gift – if we could own one of these units. I vaguely remember him saying that he would like that in writing?! 🙂 I am thinking I was being considerate in my thinking! However, as the months are rolling by and…
