the end was just the beginning
Deep breaths ... we have our first open house this morning. The auction signboard went up yesterday. I sent Husband a pic and he texted back "looks good". I cried. Just for a change. I could really do with some lessons from him on being unemotional. He's a champion at it. As for the "last"... Continue Reading →
It's been a week of TMI as celebs bared their bods (and souls) on social media ... not to mention their sex secrets ... >> Sofia Vergara announced on her WhoSay account that she and fiancé Nick Loeb have broken off their engagement. She wrote: "Not that anyone should care, but in order to not give... Continue Reading →
Husband stripped to his jocks and socks in our living room yesterday. Then things got kinda ... awkward. Not because - like a friend warned me last week - "He might even be thinking 'hey, maybe I get ex-sex'." That's a loooooooong way from his mind. I'd asked him to paint a wall prior to...

Finally, another jooshing reveal ... or "zhuzhing" as a friend insists it's spelled. Sounds more like a Chinese city to me ... And this time it's the master bedroom. Ooo-er! Let me show you around ... I went a little crazy over Morocco many moons ago ... bought the Lonely Planet guide, invested in exotic... Continue Reading →

You can keep your Simon Le Bons and your Rick Astleys. And it's Neil's birthday today, so I'm breaking... Continue Reading →
I was offered a job overseas last week. If the opportunity had come a year ago, it could have changed everything. There's an episode of Doctor Who called "Turn Left". The Doctor's companion, Donna, goes back in time to the moment she made the choice that led to meeting him: turning left at an intersection.... Continue Reading →
Revelling in the car crash that is the Kardashians has never been my thing. Watching the way they've dominated the tabloids with their D grade antics has made my eyeballs rattle over the years. But I find myself oddly fascinated by Kim Kardashian's wedding to Kanye West ... I just couldn't look away. Come on, admit... Continue Reading →
I was planning on blogging something deep and meaningful today - well, as deep and meaningful as you can get with Doctor Who references - but yesterday was kinda full on and I just don't have it in me. Tomorrow, I promise. Anyways ... yesterday I went to IKEA for the 500th time while Husband... Continue Reading →
We can carry it, she said. It's not that heavy, she said. It's only 1.3km, she said ... OK, she didn't say the last bit, I Googled it afterwards. I'm down to the last days of the schmick-a-thon for the house sale. I needed an outdoor setting for the deck because mine had rotted and... Continue Reading →
I am befuddled and muddled this week, hence forgetting to blog HouseGoesHollywood yesterday. It must be all the paint fumes ... But I'm not the only one in the wars - look who's had a worse time of it that me ... >> Michel Buble knocked a tooth out with his microphone while on stage... Continue Reading →
