I’ll take a Cadbury or Haighs over Lindt - I find them a bit too creamy and sweet. A box of Roses chocolates is different these days too though, they’ve swapped out lots of the old creams!! #firstworldproblems

I love watching the ABC news team every morning, and Lisa is a talented and warm journo and person. Why on earth people seek to tear someone down like that is beyond me and I’m so sorry it’s been her experience. Thanks for getting back up there each morning Lisa, we’re absolutely with you and we’re listening.

Immediately adding Ice Magic to my grocery list - it’s been absent from my life for too long!

@mamamia-user-482898552 I use roommate, always have. 

Unfortunately I find my mum-tum rules me out of a lot of these styles. Lovely options for those who can wear them though.

There definitely appears to be an uncomfortable imbalance of power in the relationship. He constantly makes controversial decisions and I don’t think it’s just attention seeking. He comes across as a controlling narcissist with unmanaged mental health issues. 

Art and strong opinions have always gone hand in hand so I’d say the exhibition is a success. Also, Hannah Gadsby is awesome #gohannahs

I was always told to go for skirts that fall just below the knee not above… hmmm might depend on your legs? 

This is incredibly timely for me, thank you. I’m all the things you’ve mentioned and drowning with it. Nice to know it’s not just me.

Until you’re in your 40’s (or beyond) you just don’t know what your face will face. As a 42 year old woman, I wholeheartedly agree! A 20-something’s judgement of skin at this age feels rather naive and short sighted. 

In the ACT we have a 30 April cut-off for kids attending preschool/school. I’m sure there are exceptions to the rule here but it seems to work pretty well. Always just trickier if your child is born Jan-Mar. 

@rega46 we’re all just trying to do the right thing as parents and I’ve had many friends with kids born Jan-Mar who were unsure if they should send them or hold them back. It’s not drama, it’s reality and an important decision. The lower income comment was based on research, not opinion. Let’s keep this as a healthy discussion rather than a place of judgement, yeah. 

Thank you for writing this, it’s very much my world at the moment. I feel so much guilt on both sides and each time I think we’re in the clear, another illness hits us. This winter has been really hard but it’s nice to be reminded I’m not the only Mum/parent feeling it!
