“Never be afraid to try something new… an amateur built the ark that lasted forty days and forty nights; professionals built the titanic that sank

Hello Hello Everyone :)

Not long now. In exactly four weeks I will be starting Odds Building Ltd aprenticeship in Costa Rica..... hehe :)

I still have not bought the ruck sack... Or the mosquito net, or the present for the host family... but hey there is snow in England so I have an exscuse... :)

I have started this now to make sure I get in the habit of posting little snippets as if anyone knows be well they will know I will be fab on this to begin with and then I just forget... :)

I was told the other day if I was going to do a blogg I would need to stick to it!! and it was said with stern words - yeah you know who you are and look I have started... :)

A lot of people have asked me why? Why now? Well why not is my answer? Why not now? Each year I learn more and more that you can not predict what will happen, who you will meet, who will show you new ways of looking at life or who will hurt you but help you grow as result. I have decided that I want to follow what feels right and regret the things I have done (maybe not that extra slice of cake though, really should have left it.....) than the things I haven't.

Helping people that have so little I hope will humble me up and remind me that life is so much fun and you actually don't need much to see that. Well I hope so other wise I am soooo barking up the wrong tree.. or experience for that matter...

Any how... Must go a glass of nice red wine and a fabulous episode of Jane Ayre await me... Oh my word I am going to struggle - but hey I will finally slim down - joy of rice and beans for breakfast, lunch and dinner!! Whoop Whoop and jazz hands!

Big hugs to you all!

Celebrated not Tolerated!

Lately I have been tested beyond what I ever thought I would be in an incredibly short amount of time! The universe has tested me in regards to biting my tongue yet at the same time learning to speak up to hold on to my values, let go and know I most likely will get hurt from it, have possessions stolen, being stuck in an environment that was un empathetic and selfish, take control when all I wanted was to breakdown, loss of a loved one and mainly being surrounded by a world filled with volatile reactions. I have panicked like I haven’t done in ages, I have cried like I haven’t for a while, I have laughed louder and more heart fully than before when something has actually tickled me, yet through this I have decided to take the biggest risk of my life. I have taken a pay cut to put my happiness first. I have said no to temporary pleasures to aim for long-term happiness yet I have been so distressed I have acted out of character and done things that jeopardised my reputation and what I...

Circle of life

I remember her calling me down from a tree. I was angry! I was so angry that I tried to run away. I ran as far as the tree outside. I climbed it in my skirt. Noone had noticed how upset I was. So I thought. She did. She yoodled and sang for me to laugh at her. It worked. She knew where I was. She kind of always did. She often ignored my tantrums. Let me get on with it I suppose. But for some reason with me she knew when it got too much. She simply said – running away is only a temporary fix. Why not come back down to earth and deal with it one step at a time with love in your heart. She wasn’t always fair or nice but she treated me with care and good advice. She liked her red wine and the funny thing it actually made her fine. I miss her with every heart beat, one day hope I her again will meet. In heaven or in devon I don’t mind, as long as like her, I can be kind. Anna why did you have to die, it fills me with a great big sigh! I miss you more than you will ever know, More...

Smell the coffee!

I received a text today that made me think. It stated:  ‘ I think that’s what you needed to do like literally switch off from all things negative and start seeing and concentrate on your positives  (which I haven’t heard or seen you do in a looooooong time!!’ I’m not going to lie. I have been in a super dark place. Not dark enough for it to show but internally I have been crumbling. I have tried my hardest to fight it and I have done an OK job but it has taken its toll. That is until yesterday. Of course I didn’t just snap out of it. I have been working hard to learn to work my way out of it but after crying just because someone that I don’t know on Saturday pushed me away I was like – WHATT??? Is this what I am allowing my brain to do to me? I deliberately didn’t rush to get the charger for my phone. I let it stay out of juice pretty much all day. I had an uncomfortable chat, then woke up and smelt the coffee. I decided that no one would ever rob me of me again. Th...
