I have decided to resurect this blog and although it is now
apparent to me that I may be culling my wardrobe for the rest of my life
(ho-hum), I'm not sure that it's the only topic that I want to be
writing about.
So, what other things will I write about?
Quick and healthy mid-week meals
I work in a corporate environment and attend young professional
networking functions here and there (even though I'm not so young
anymore). One of the constant topics that comes up when I "network" is
food and how no one has time to cook. Rubbish I say! I hope to publish
some of the quicker recipes I enjoy making mid-week... No excuses!
Our renovations
We have been in our home for just over a year now. Slowly we have
figured out what we don't like about our place and the changes that we
would like to implement.
During my blogging hiatus we had ducted
heating and cooling installed (bliss) and also put up a motorised
retractable awning in the backyard (we did not want any permanent
structures blocking out any glorious Winter sunlight). Although both of
these projects have been exciting for us, they do not make for riveting
blogging content. The next projects on the agenda, however, are
more visually stimulating! We are just beginning to plan an en suite to
our master bedroom (STCC) and also a new kitchen.
I hope to share my renovation
ideas on this blog, as well as to get input from fellow renovators who
may stumble across these words.
Decorating
The amount of small home projects I have piling up is getting to be embarrassing. I won't list them all here (because then I will feel
accountable to you all) but I'll try to blog about these projects as I complete
them. At the moment I am building up the motivation to repaint the
mantle and fireplace in our formal lounge room.
Minimalism
This
topic continues to fascinate me, but because I have now admitted to myself
that I have a genetic predisposition to hoarding, I may never be able
to call myself a 'minimalist'. Anyhow, I'm really keen to at least
get rid of the unnecessary stuff in my life and also to organise
everything in our home.
And I will continue where I left off...
Regardless of the progress I have made with my
attitude towards
shopping (with mammoth hiccups occurring spasmodically), for me the
culling process has been fraught with frustration. I don't think it
makes for
good or helpful reading when every other post is about a new culling
methodology that I have implemented because the old one hasn't worked
for me. Nevertheless, because I like fashion and I enjoy this endless
quest for the ideal wardrobe (in a very sick and twisted way), this blog will continue to serve as a
portrayal of the battles
(some) women (me) have with the contents of their (my) wardrobe.
Thanks for reading and looking forward to your comments.
