Welcome! Thank you for Stopping by!

I’m the Moody Mum!

I was about 43 when I started to notice the first changes of mid-life. I wanted to drop a few kilos, and (humble brag, I know), but that had never been a problem for me.  Yet here I was, not only unable to drop weight, but gaining. Then the brain fog started, then I just started to disappear from everyone. Not depressed exactly, just the essence of me was gone; no motivation or desire to DO. And without the doing, I’m just not me. 

I want to TALK about this and share my experiences. I especially want to talk about life changes and motherhood. 
And if I go on about other stuff, then bonus!

I love doing lots of different things, and if I can get myself sorted, I’ll share them with you.

Some things in the pipe line:

  • Join me in the Bat Cave – a place for moody peri-menopausal musings, humour, some real talks and my take on this stage of life.
  • Story time with the Moody Mum. I love books and sharing books with my son. I’ve curated book lists for him and other kids too. It’s fun for me! 
  • A column called ‘Because patriarchy…’ I can get a bit sweary and angry… and doesn’t that just about sum up this stage of life?
  • Completely out of left-field – I’m working on a YouTube channel all about Halloween in Australia. DIY props and decorations, food etc.
