    $$$..

    If you could permanently ban a word from general usage, which one would it be? Why? Monies. It’s not even a real word, but it has crept into daily conversation. It just seems lazy to me. Urgh, friends. Just urgh. Continue reading

About Me

I’m 50+ years and I’m not wasting a single day. I’m married, a mum and live near the beautiful Barossa Valley, South Australia. I have lost 40kgs+. I focus a lot on protein and am on a journey of self discovery about gut and brain health. I love travelling, particularly through outback Australia. I enjoy hiking and bush walking. My camera is my phone.I work FT and recently commenced a grad cert at uni. My views are my own.
