Forgotten.

People ask me about blogging and the caravan trip all the time. Am I going to keep blogging while we are away? Am I going to blog the crafty stuff I make, or travel stuff? Will I start a new blog or record it all here?

I've been wondering the same thing. But I guess I made the decision a while back not to commit to anything, just to see what happened. Let it evolve. If I wanted to blog, if I had something to say, I would. If not, not.

I like blogging. Its a way of recording my life, emptying my mind and being a bit creative. The other bloggers I've come across along the way are pretty fun too.

Almost always my blog tells me what to write and I just type the words out on the keyboard. At times I am even surprised by what I read back at the end. I wonder where it came from.

While its true this blog has mostly been a craft blog I guess it has also at times been a personal blog, a place to express my opinions, my emotions, our family milestones, and now it may become a travel blog.

Today I was in the most gorgeous shop, Fine and Sunny in Mildura, and the gorgeous owner Shell recognised me through my blog, knew about our caravan adventure and we chatted like old friends. Its nice to think that through blogging we'll meet other new 'old friends' along the way.

Anyway, in the spirit of who on earth knows what this blog is anymore or where it is going, I thought I'd share my list of things we forgot at home when we set off. Some of them are replaceable some are not. A few caused tears, most are just annoying. Why oh why didn't I write a list to check off?


  • The good fry pan.
  • Months worth of chopped, sauteed and frozen portions of onions.
  • Jazzy's pencil case.
  • Pepper's Humpty Dumpty.
  • The step ladder.
  • The coffee grounds banger thing.
  • The washing on the line outside at home.
  • Indi's song book.
  • Ear plugs.
  • Nail clippers.
  • Jazzy's sunnies.
  • Stuffing for the amigurami bunny.
  • The soap dish.
If you are good I might share with you my list of very odd things we packed in another post.

Happy days people.

See ya round. x
