Biography
My name is Krissie, I have two children; Edie, who is six, and Jude who is four. I live in the Blue Mountains of NSW with my children and my husband, Bim; our dog, cat and chooks.
I constantly strive for a balanced and productive life, but often fall short of my own expectations. I’m crap at craft, and a non-joiner when it comes to games. I love the idea of all that stuff but somehow can’t follow through. But I do love just spending time meandering through the days, baking, wandering, talking, reading, playing and seeing where that takes us. I believe children grow their capacity for inspiration and imagination through boredom. At least it worked for me as a kid in the country with only one TV channel, never allowed inside on a lovely day.
I’m a big fan of the gym, and love thrashing it out for eight hours or more a week, doing body combat, pump, step and balance. Well, the balance isn’t very thrashy. More recently I’ve rediscovered long walks and am enjoying the exploration that brings.
It means the dog is fitter and happier too. And that has to be good.
I run my own business, specialising in project management, particularly web production, development and community building for the arts industry.
I love to write, but am prone to periods of great slackness.
In theory I am a student of naturopathy. In practice, I have a big pile of books on nutrition, flower essences, anatomy and physiology and a guilty conscience.
