2nd - 6th June! Look Out! PANDA on the Loose

I have been very eager to do some acts of kindness so I decided to go all out for a charity that I am very passionate about and during that week I also plan to do a few other random acts of kindness for others as well... For now I will tell you about my take act of kindness for WWF and later what I have done for others during that time ♡

As we all know the WWF does some great work for conservation both in Australia and around the world, and this year for the FIRST TIME ANYWHERE IN THE WORLD, they are running WILD ONESIE WEEK. What is Wild Onesie Week? Wild Onesie Week is an event where you run wild in your coolest wild animal onesie for an entire week! And I am joining! I want to raise awareness for WWF so they can continue the work they do, especially for our little corner of the world and our beautiful paradise we and other animals call home.

For an entire week, I'm preparing to come out of hibernation between June 2nd and 6th, 2014, throw on a Wild Onesie and BE ONE, TO SAVE MANY! I will be wearing my Wild Animal Onesie everywhere I go, that’s right, grocery shopping, kids school runs, day-care runs, active parents fit club, and anywhere else I may need to go! For everyone that donates more than $5 you can request a picture of me at any reasonable location anywhere in and around the Cairns area and I will happily oblige, this could be the pool, a local playground, your local supermarket, your kids school, the limit is your imagination (within reason of course) this could be somewhere where you are even able to grab a #WildOnesieSelfie with me. 

Donations also have the opportunity to get a Panda Pampering Paw Massage from Panda!!

The Panda Event & Updates can be found on the Facebook at
Look Out! PANDA on the Loose #PandaPounce

Monday

I will be at the Cairns City Library at 151 Abbott Street, to read some wild books to become one with Panda and then heading on an adventure around the Botanic Gardens at Collins Avenue in Edge Hill

Tuesday

I will be working out in my Wild Onesie at Active Parents Fit Club in the morning at the Sugar World Park, with a Preschool Panda Play and giving Panda Pampering Paw Massage for people who have donated online, why not bring some morning tea and join us for a Panda Picnic in the park!

Wednesday

The morning will be spent at Mt Sheridan Early Learning Centre having a Panda Play Party and then on to Isabella State School where i will be joining the school's Eco Warriors lunch activities. During the evening the Panda will be Wild Wondering the Esplanade and through the Night Markets, with a dip in the Lagoon thrown in for good measure.

Thursday

SPOT THE PANDA MYSTERY!! you will have to follow along on social media to find me and find out more.... 

Friday

I will be at Indi for Kindi at the Cairns Early Years Centre in Bentley Park in the morning having a Panda Play and I will be at the FigTree playground at Wharf Shed 2 located on the corner of Abbot st and Wharf st in Cairns city after school for some Panda Paint and Play and giving Panda Pampering Paw Massages for people who have donated online.

All these places are in my usual weekly routine, but there is plenty of room for me to pop up somewhere else during this time for requested Wild Onesie Selfies and Pictures and stop in at other local businesses, to give Panda Pampering Paw Massages, that want to get behind the WWF cause and help keep our Paradise a Paradise!

Saturday

IF I RAISE $1500 BY MIDNIGHT FRIDAY BUNGY JUMP AT AJ HACKETT AT 11AM!!

If I manage to reach my goal I have set of $1500 by Midnight Friday 6th June I will be doing a Bungy Jump at A.J. Hackett Bungy in Cairns, dressed in my Onesie. That’s right I’m going to push my limits in the name of this great cause and for our wonderful area that I would like to help preserve! (I hate heights and have NEVER Bungy Jumped) So I will Panda Pounce!!

As a thank you the people that have donated they will get a video of the PANDA POUNCE

The more people that know about it the more it will help me to raise awareness (And let people know to keep an eye out for someone dressed in an animal onesie out on the street! It's not like you see that every day.) 

There is plenty of room for me to pop up somewhere and stop in at other local businesses, to give Panda Pampering Paw Massages, that want to get behind the WWF cause and help keep our Paradise a Paradise! So please spread the word by going to and sharing my everyday hero page. Thank you in advance for your generosity, it means a lot! 

My onesie campaign is a collaboration between you, me and the wonderful organisation I am doing this CRAZY act for!

Join My Herd for Wild Onesie Week!!

Would you like to join my herd? Are you brave enough, to join me in my pack to BE ONE, TO SAVE MANY? Join my team Pouncing Panda & the WildOnesies in this Wild Onesie Week event where ordinary everyday people like you and I can help the WWF by getting together and donning our coolest wild animal onesie for an entire week to raise awareness of endangered and threatened animals all around the world, while drumming up support and sponsorship from any and everywhere we can think of to help raise funds for WWF to protect their natural habitats, It’s not a hard task, in fact it will be quite fun, when else would you have the excuse to run around all day dressed in you PJ’s as your favourite wild animal, and all the while raise funds and awareness for such an important cause. Especially in our little corner of the world with our beautiful Paradise. If you don’t want to dress up , there is another way you can help as well, by sponsoring, publicly sharing and spreading the word for someone like myself who is willing to go the extra mile for WWF and Cairns. The money we raise together will enable WWF to create solutions for the most serious conservation challenges facing our planet!

My thoughts on the video 'Look Up'

Look Up: http://youtu.be/Z7dLU6fk9QY

I don't want to justify for myself or anyone using their phones/social media I mean at the end of the day if you found it you were already using social media and had your 'head down' if you shared it then again really you were ignoring the message and kept going rather then putting it down and experiancing life.
All I would like to say is at the end of the day it's all about limits!
They do send a great message and there is a few blogs and other things that also send this great message especially for parents and their children but you have to be using the Internet and social media to see it and share it and get your message to others! Are these blogs and videos and such, not just spread through social media by the perception that people like the idea? They want to completly disconnect from 'smart phones' but can't do it.. because if they could then it wouldn't be all over the net and social media for people TO SEE and realise.
The people writing them are also not really stopping and putting their phones down and ignoring social media are they?? They had to write it and share using these tools.. I'm a blogger, not a very good one lol its just a hobby for me, but I know that to get it to go anywhere you have to monitor and share it all, thats why mine has gone nowhere so far (my life with my family comes first!), you have to put the time and effort in and therefor continue to USE social media.
The real message they are sending is to take notice of where your priorities lie.. Hopefully the people promoting these things are doing exactly that making media less of a priority over important things in life and if they do get someone to completly disconnect from social media because that's what they really want then great but if you can't completly disconnect from 'smart phones' and social media don't beat yourself up about it, they didn't, just look at the big picture and think about what YOU use it for, this is mine:

I know I can't leave my phone behind... I use mine as a tool, a camera to capture precious moments. A voice recorder to catch the funny little things they say and a video camera to record the things they do and make movies with the kids. Thankfully I can easily close it when someone else needs attention or so I dont miss out on experiences in life and I easily ignore it when I am so wrapped up with doing things and experiencing life! This is why I never answer my phone, sorry mum :) but you know I'll get back to you. I also use it for when I take my down time (if i get any lol) because we all need that. I read books, write, draw. I use it to share pictures and the childrens lives with family as they are too far away to see them grow otherwise.. ♡ you guys!
Research in my down time to plan fun activities that are going on around town and trips 'adbentures' as Leila says or ideas for play.. Our kids are limited in the amount of time they have using any type of screen and we rarely watch TV and even then mostly documentaries just as we are rarely using our phones around them as we are giving them our attention and involved in playing with them and watching them grow :)

My I 'Want' List

Mothers days coming up so take note guys laugh..
This is my I want list I know I'm dreaming but hey a girl can dream!
All of these things that I 'want' I don't have because it comes with having kids and a partner that I love and partaking in enjoying life and who they are, all of which I really do LOVE having and therefor don't really mind missing out on the things I want.
So generally speaking my I want list are things that would make it easier to do more things with and for you guys simple stuff right? Apparently I'm wrong LOL

I want people to pick up after themselves I don't want to waste my time picking up everyone else's things I can totally be doing more productive things other then taking everything thats left lying around the house, car and garden back to were it belongs after its been pulled out and dumped somewhere else after use. Like planning our next adventure, cooking yummy food and enjoying doing the activities that you want to do with me! Such as craft, taking you places and even just sitting and snuggling up on the couch together watching something on TV or a movie! Is it really that hard to take the extra 2 secs to put it back where it belongs? Or leave me to do it all at once later making me go from one end of the house to another taking longer then it would have taken you to do it because it's now a bulk amount. Also I wouldn't have to ask for it to be done then have you narky at me because I asked if you had just done it in the first place!
So new rule till you've tidied up NO playing, screens or me taking you special places you want to go! Your not making more mess for me to clean then having all the fun while I clean up after you. (As Naite would say 'stop making me be your slave') If I can't do these fun things and the things I want to do because I have to tidy up after you all, you can't either!!
Oh and while we are at it, if you see something that doesn't belong somewhere and your heading in that direction is it really that hard to pick it up on the way and put it where it belongs? AND RUBBISH BELONGS IN THE BIN!! I don't think I can stress that one enough.. weird question 'why do I find food in odd places around the house?'

I want you to clean up after yourself. If you use the kitchen put things away when you are done, put the dishes in or next to the sink for me to wash and wipe the bench, easy right.. apparently wrong!
Dirty clothes go IN the wash basket not next to or scattered about the house and backyard (Why I find clothes in the backyard I have NO IDEA??)

If I'm doing something wait till I'm finished.. If you interrupt me either by making me stop or even just having a conversation that can wait I can not concentrate on either thing properly and then I just have to start again which means it takes me longer to finish either before I can do anything else at all! Aaahhh man your doing it now..
If your wondering why I'm not really listening it's because you interrupted..
If I don't answer properly I am trying to concentrate on something so stop and wait please don't keep going.

I want more sleep.. I want more energy to be able to do more with you guys which means more sleep so I'm not tired. The more I have to run around doing pointless things that you guys can do the longer it takes to get the things that need to be done, done. Like washing dishes, meals, cleaning floors and clothes which means it is longer before I can get in bed and get a good rest to have energy to do the extra things. Then I need naps to catch up so there is more time lost already and when I have a nap I wake up and there is extra to do because everything that you have done while I napped is left out Aaahhh...

If we all worked together to clean and tidy up after ourselves we would have so much more time to do and go fun places together and I REALLY want that and I'm sure you do too!

All these things listed before this means I miss out on the next one more often then not because I love you guys and put you first, and love spending time with you all and individually and do everything you need first...
*It's a big one so take note*

I want more time to do the things I want to do.. I REALLY REALLY want to blog! I want to blog about what we do and part of that being, organising regular events with others for us to participate in, networking with others and having the time to be able to set things up! (That means I need the time to do the things I say I am going to do for others, I hate letting people down!) I really want this as obviously study is impossible for me to do at the moment as I am already time poor due to everything else I do. Currently the only time I get for this is when really I should be sleeping..
While we are at it as I'm dreaming.. I'd love some more ME time to do my things like gardening, taking Charlie for a run, art & crafts, our family & kids folders, gifts for family and friends, doing up the house and planning fun things to do together!!

But really at the end of the day I'd love to sit down, snuggle on the couch and chill out with you guys but I am run off my feet from the moment I wake up to the moment I go to bed I don't stop! I don't get a break to do what I want to do because I am constantly doing what I have to do.. don't get me wrong I LOVE most of the things I have to do (there is a few there that you can do though!) because I love you guys I just want some more time to do some of the things I would like to do...

Hey and while we are dreaming I'll add -
A Millon Dollars, Well Behaved Kids & An Overseas Holiday :D
