Day 14 → A hero that has let you down. (letter)

I struggled with this one and so went to see what other people were saying who are also doing the 30 Days I am greatly relieved to see that I am not the only one who can not think of someone here. Like music I guess I don’t idealize or have heros on pedestals, we are all human and therefor all failable and the sooner we realize that about ourselves...

How to make a Halloween wreath

How to make a Halloween wreath A boer may make a plan but they have nothing on Pinky! I am interjecting in all my narcissistic droning to post some pics of our Halloween news We decided rather last minute to have a Halloween/housewarming party on Saturday. So this week we have been rather busy making all the preparations and finding all the things we needed. I saw this picture and wanted...

Day 13 → A band or artist that has gotten you through some tough ass days. (write a letter.)

Doing a bit of a catch up here. The move and getting things ready for the Halloween party has made the last few days very busy. But I wanted to get this one over with, I was dreading it but I hope by the time I wrote it I would have found some great inspiration but sadly I have had the page open for hours now and I have had no sudden recall or memory of...

Day 12 → Something you never get compliments on.

Well I am not sure anyone gets compliments on their feet but being a girl with size 8 feet can suck. Cool shoes never come in the bigger sizes, and besides I am too tall to wear heels anyway. But more than big, my feet are funny. People actually laugh at them. I have 4 long toes and one tiny runt. I used to joke with my mom that she had me too early...

Day 10 → Someone you need to let go, or wish you didn’t know.

I really can’t think of anyone that is in my life that I don’t want there. Get divorced and have a tumultuous year and you soon see who your friends are. It leaves little room for anyone but those who want to be there because they really do care. As for people I wish I did not know, I think people come and go in our lives for a reason. We learn...

Day 09 → Someone you didn’t want to let go, but just drifted.

I have a friend in England who is like a sister to me. There was a stage when I was quite religious and it was something we had in common. Since I moved back here and my life has changed so much I guess we have drifted. It is sad I suppose I almost feel like it is disapproval at my life or that I questioned all that we believed. I know it is partly to do...

Day 08 → Someone who made your life hell, or treated you like shit.

Funny how I always seem to start these post with how easy or hard the questions were but somehow it seems relevant to the process. This one is actually hard. I am sure it would just be easy to say that the ex was THE person that treated me badly and that he made everything bad but I am sure that points to intent. He don’t think any of it was ever...

Day 07 → Someone who has made your life worth living for

This is going to sound a bit self help bookish but I learnt through all the thing that happened in this last year and a half, that my life had innate value, and that I am worthwhile just because I am. I can not make someone else responsible for my worth. I do have amazing people in my life give it purpose and meaning. My kids, my awesome Geek, my...

Day 06 → Something you hope you never have to do.

This one as a parent is easy. I hope I never have to bury a child. I can not even for a moment begin to imagine what that feels like. I would struggle to go on after that. They are my world. Don’t even want to write any more that is enough....

Day 05 → Something you hope to do in your life.

I am a day behind so am doing 2 today This one is easy. I want to write a book. Sorry, I know I go on about it a lot. I know a lot of people want to write a book and feel an over-inflated value in what they have to say. Maybe I fall into this category too. The one thing I have, that a lot of people have commented on in both a good and a bad way, is that I...
