Raspberry Bellini

Oh how rude of me I almost forgot to introduce myself. I’m Rachel from Western Sydney in Australia and I am the mother of 5 precious but not always so perfect children. My first three kids were girls and they are 9, 7 and 5 years old, next came my son and he is 3 and then we had another baby girls who is 11 months old.

When I’m not blogging I spend my time doing mum stuff, cleaning, taxiing, cooking, playing, caring and nuturing! It’s a difficult job at times but it’s my job and I wouldn’t have it any other way :)

This blog is only one in a long list of my blogs (I get bored easily, can you tell??) so if you feel up to it go and visit my others:

Smart Habit Saturday – No Credit Card

Smart Habit Saturday

Last weeks habit was to keep the vanity clean and clear of clutter and I am pleased to say that I have managed to do that.

This weeks habit will be to not use my credit card. This is a tough one for me because I am so used to using it for everything. Even though I have been trying not to use it at the stores I find myself walking away with a bag full of stuff and I realise that I have just paid for it using my credit card and I didn’t even realise it. So this week in an effort to finally get the horrid card paid off I am going to leave it at home, that way I won’t be tempted at all to use it. Wish me luck!!!!

This years habits so far:

Keep the bathroom vanity clean – doing well
Switching off appliances when not in use – could be better
