Oh to find the time...

Well I haven't posted for a while because I've not really thought about doing it.. this is a new thing to me.. Facebook I'm a pro at, twitter I do sometimes a bit like this. More bout when I think of it but it's not just part of my daily routine. Not that I have a daily routine and if I did it would be thrown out the window currently anyway. I've been socially busy but considering it's almost 3am I really should leave all my news till another time.
Take care

Start your day with a Smile

I mean it, as soon as you open your eyes when you wake up have something ready to look at which will cause a smile. It could be a photo that floods back memories of fun times, it could be your phone that you know is going to have a message on it waiting for you, a favourite quote, anything at all that will make you smile when you first open your eyes. I've made this change to my life over the last few days and from that moment my eyes open the mouth widens I have a smile plastered on my face for the entire day until I fall asleep. Of course a smile can't change what the world has to throw at you, but what it can do is make you feel good inside in turn helping you find a way through the challenges that come your way.

I'm pretty confident my mobile bill will go over it's large cap this month, and that's totally fine by me because I have not laughed and smiled so much since I don't remember when. You just can't put a price on true friendship and your memories. I'm on a journey finding my way back to the 'Real' me, so my friendships and memories made with these people are so important right now. Also just as important are the new memories I'm making with these friends from the past as well as new friends from now! The confidence and freedom I'm feeling is amazing, I'm so grateful to be in a position to get my happiness back and show my boys their true Mummy who smiles and laughs all the time.

I could keep rambling on and on and on and on... but I really do have things to do before I go to bed

Past & Present, Old & New

Can I just start by saying how much I love having facebook. I love how it keeps me up to date and connected with friends and family from far away or just across the road, I love how all of a sudden friendships that were lost for years can be found again. I get to share my life and my boys with the people who have in one way or another touched my life and helped get me to where I am now. And those people can pick and choose whether they want to keep up to date or not, they have the option to remove the things they don't want to know about etc.
I love to find a blast from the past, but sometimes wonder if they'll remember me or if they'll just see me as some crazy person lol. Thankfully I normally don't have a problem and it works out well :-) After years of searching every now an then for a friend i lost touch with roughly 12yrs ago, I finally came across them 4 days ago and I've been so happy being able to chat about old times as well as what's happened in our lives during that time we lost touch. It has really been refreshing for me too going through my old photo albums and seeing how much fun I've had in my life so far and just think of all the possibilities I still have, to make more fun memories.
I also need to mention 2 New people in my life that with each day that goes by since meeting them my world seems a little brighter. So Thank you Sar & San, you two make me smile, laugh, relax & feel free to be me, just as I am which empowers me with more and more self confidence. You came into my life just when I needed it most, and I'm so grateful to have you in my life. I do enjoy the scrapbooking aspect of it too!!
I should probably stop my ramblings for now... although I'm pretty sure the only person who'll read this is Sar so I've only wasted a few mins of her day and I'm sure she'll forgive me!?? Right Sar???...
Take Care

Look Sar... I'll need your help!!!

Ok so although my first post should probably be a bit about me and my life etc, it's not  going to be so much on that... I have set this up because a New but already very dear friend told me I just HAD to have a blog... like I don't procrastinate from doing housework enough as it is??!! Well apparently not since I've just spent the last I don't know how long trying to set this page up and to be honest I have no idea what I'm doing, which is probably why I'm not really liking what I'm seeing! So I think it's only fair that the woman, who shall be given the name Sarah Ward (aka Sar) the one responsible for this situation I'm currently in, shall be responsible for helping set this up to a state that I actually like what I see.. or at least gives me a few lessons on what to do... And on that note I think I'll finish up and approach this subject with her now! I promise to eventually get around to my life etc one day...
