I have since we last spoke, been exploring our utterly gorgeous world we live in which will all be revealed in a separate blog. A big 3-0 year too! there's a fair few blunders!
There was a time i wanted a different life in a hot country, but now I just feel utterly blessed to have England as our base! Make the plans, learn the weather won't hurt us even if it rains! England is amazing- more on that later. Today.....
Today is a little different blog. it's a little about teenie weenie tasks that make me feel awesome and not so much about my recent mishaps or general life as a wife.
Coming up to 30 i think we all expected to be a certain somewhere-
Blinded by big milestones in our life to complete , get the right job, have the perfect family balance, entertain the kids, try not to eat too many cakes, have a home ( preferably one that doesn't stink of dog piss but that again, another blog) Our visions are blurred sometimes about some truly great things that can make us feel instantly happy and i just wanted to share with you all a little piece of what we all should feel is happiness and a 'good life'
30 amazing things that make me feel good - Time to share them!
1. Sleeping in a freshly made bed - aweomeness!
2. Feeling the sun on your face - instant happiness here!
3. People saying ‘thank you’ or a random act of kindness from a stranger - nice to be nice!
4. Finding money in unexpected places ... like the washing machine whoooo!
5. Having time to yourself - other than on the loo with screaming kids!
6. Laughing so hard it hurts - absoluteness! watch that comedy film!
7. Snuggling on the sofa with a loved one - peace!
8. Freshly made bread - screw the carbs! it's amazing!
9. Doing something for others - take out you neighbours bins if they are older- it's nice!
10. The clean feeling after a shower - bliss
11. When your favourite song comes on the radio - get wild! turn it up freak out! even in the car!
12. Finding a bargain in the sales - and tell the world too! its ok!

14. Freshly brewed tea or coffee - solves everything!
15. The thrill of personal achievement - you set the goal and do it! go you!
16. Having a long hot bath - and enjoy it and don't cut it short!
17. Seeing a fresh coating of snow - pretty!

Enjoy your life you are living, leading, learning about. Find your own path, you might never want that home, that family that all the others seem to want, or you may want that but no one else does. who cares. Enjoy what is yours and only what is truley yours is your life. Enjoy your teenie tiny things that make you smile a little, eat the cake buy the shoes and smile... you will look back in ten years and think you look amazing anyway so stop stressing about those few pounds, in the bank accounts and on your body!
