Day 23 → Something you wish you had done in your life.
Well this makes it sound like my life is over and I have missed some great chance to do something wonderful. I hope I still have time to do all the things I want to. Actually like the 101 things list which was fun to do I was actually thinking of doing a sort of a bucket list.
There are no big things that I feel by 33 I should have done and look back with...
Day 20 → Your views on drugs and alcohol.
AJ has written more or less what I think so seeing as I am a day or so behind I just point you to his post
Like all things I am fairly liberal and I am not sure that making things illegal has helped in any way shape or form. People are still responsible for their actions so yes drunk driving should still be very illegal etc.
Anyway go read what AJ says...
Never without the dream
I stood on my balcony tonight and I thought I am not without hope and I do believe that the dream will be real one day. I don’t want to give the impression that I am without hope. It is just sometimes when you want something badly you can open yourself up to the dream sooner than it is ready to be a reality.
I think this is what I was trying to say...
I want my own way!
Yes yes I know that sounds like a spoiled child stamping her feet and I guess it pretty much is. I apparently threw spectacular tantrums as a child. They were dealt with severely as big emotion was not allowed or understood in my family. So I learned to suppress a lot but it does not change the fact that when I can’t do it my way I want to jump up and...
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...
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...
Weekend wine and kids
It was a quiet weekend actually, we spent a lot of time with Laura and her kids. We were there Friday afternoon, they came to us on Saturday for lunch and the afternoon and then we were at a braai today with another single mom. Wine was consumed, laughs were had and life was discussed.
My sweet boy – his sister threw a rock at him yesterday, poor...
Keeping busy
This seems to be the key. Laura and I took the kids to the park yesterday morning. They had a great time and it was so nice to sit out in the sun for awhile. I got sunburnt! Not a lot but still a touch pink. Who gets sunburnt in August?!? Laura took some really cute pics of the kids but they were deleted later that night – a long story.
I was at one...
