This is the world according to me…in photos, words, stories and sometimes even poetry. It’s a fun creative outlet, and as a bonus I get to meet some amazing bloggers from around the world.
My aim is to make you smile, educate you in some way, maybe inspire you and to share my world, while learning about your world.
I love an adventure and I always seem to find one – or it finds me! It keeps me feeling young :)
I’m living life to the fullest and embracing the challenges that come with midlife! I’m now a grandmother x 4, and I am as happy as a pig in mud.
Please take your time exploring my world – it’s full of stories, travels, adventures, photos and love.
I appreciate your visit, your likes and any comments or feedback you care to leave me. Feel free to share the love 😊
Deb’s World has joy in its blood. With gorgeous pictures, and some very powerful reflections on both love and loss Deb shares some valuable wisdom from a glorious life. Deb is up for anything, and isn’t afraid to try what seems impossible. She’s great and definitely a Hidden Gem!
Angela – You are Awesome blog
Hi, Deb – I so loved following your travel posts for this series. Your photography not only shows your immense creativity, it also reveals the soul of what you were trying to capture – and delightfully displays your joie de vivre (which is completely contagious). Thank you for joining in (and running with it) and for the shoutouts!

Thanks for sharing your wonderful posts at Over The Moon Party.
See you next week.
Hugs,
Bev

I too am an MOB. Like you, my youngest daughter is getting married – but I don’t have so long to wait. My daughter’s wedding is in less than two weeks!!! The wedding is a location wedding – in Tasmania- but I don’t think that counts because she lives there. I, however, don’t and so I’ve spent loads of time on phone calls, FaceTime calls, and sending and receiving messages. I am deeply involved in the organisation and loving it. I feel very fortunate that my daughter has invited me to be part of organising her big day.
We have made myriad decisions together – consulting closely on loads of the details. It’s been great. I’m getting very excited – about the wedding but also about seeing the family together. I think that’s one of the great things about weddings – the opportunity for families to come together. Especially when they’re scattered all across Australia like mine are. It seems that weddings are the only times we’ve been together lately.
So lots of excitement and anticipation and decisions and communication. No melt downs, no one’s had their cranky pants on … it’s all going swimmingly!

I know you will be a MOB very soon! How exciting!! I’m glad you’ve managed to work the distance issues out and get involved. It’s also good you are included in decisions and I’m sure your input is very much appreciated. See you soon!

Your daughter looks so like you, Debbie! What a lovely idea to document the occasion (and the others to come!) in this way.

Thanks Shirley, people often say that we are alike. She’s so tall and willowy, which she gets from her father, and I often don’t see past that. It was a great opportunity to write about my experiences (as a guest blogger) and I loved it!!

Thanks for noticing that! I actually got my robe in the colour of my outfit (purple) so we all matched. The bride in white, bridesmaids in yellow and me in purple. I loved the whole thing 😊
