I don’t want to
Today I said to a friend who is going through a very rough time that sometime we survive because we have to and not because we want to. That is how I feel today. I don’t want to. I don’t want to wake up, I don’t want to struggle to juggle and balance all the things I have to do. There is just too much. I can’t keep all the balls in...
I will wait
I have not written fridge magnet poetry in a while but this one happened this morning when getting the milk out for the kids breakfast.
I will wait
In silent depths
At the edge of a promise
my soul must rest
learning the art of solitude
let the sadness be,
walk, lie, rise with it.
The fragile whisper of...
Surprises
I got a card from a friend in the post. I hardly ever get post anymore, not the nice kind anyway. It was actually quite nice to open and enverlope and see the surprise inside. I love surprises. My mom and my ex are both very bad at surprises they told me before hand about my surprise kitchen tea party! I know it is practical to ask me before what gifts I...
My weird life just got weirder
Just when I thought things could not possibly be any stranger than they are, they get more weird. People ask weird stuff, do the unexpected or do nothing at all. I am left feeling like a spectator in a movie. Well I was even told something I said sounded like a line out of a movie. I am just going with the moments for now. Experiences and living in the...
Rachel’s Party
We basically have a 4 day long party for Rachel. I can’t believe my little girl is 5!! We first had the home school group over to our house on Wednesday. What a fantastic day we all had swimming and sitting out in the sun talking relaxing and listening to the sounds of children playing. I always feel great after a Wednesday. I took my camera down...
Too thin?
Not sure why I feel the need to blog this one but it has been floating around in my head for a while now so it needs to come out. I thought about it on my run and I realized that I like being thin, no I mean I really really like being thin. I have lost a lot of weight since I arrived back in South Africa back in January. As i have said before I am a stress...
I won!!
This is take-2 on today’s blog, the other is left in my drafts and I am sure it is where it should stay. Just far too much emo-ness going on in it and I am guess there are very few people that really want to read any more emo here, so lets stick to all the rad things that happened today.
1) my boobs went for their 6 week check up and have been given...
Disconcerting
Yesterday we went to a blog girls meet up at Ngwenya Glass Village. What a nice setting for a relaxed afternoon of chatting and laughing. I did not get a chance to look around all the little craft shops – well to be honest it would have been an unnecessary temptation with an empty purse! But I really want to go again and take my mom as I think she...
Soooo Exciting – My very first Blog Award
Wow this is super super exciting. Awards are one of those cool bonuses to blogging that I did not realize when I started. A bit like how addictive getting comments can be. On that note – I love comments so please comment about my mad rambling if you come across my blog!
I got this award from my partner in much wine consumption, my shoulder to cry on,...
I have been given ALL the answers!!
And who would ever have suspected that they would all come from a piece of paper handed out at the robots? Ja you know the ones that get cram into your face if you have you window down by even a millimeter. Now what is a nice pink haired eco mom to do? I want to use the aircon as little as possible – but having to fight off papers and worse being...
