About Me

I'm just a girl determined to live my life Intentionally!

WELCOME TO MY JOURNEY THROUGH LIFE!


Welcome to my newly revamped Blog. A lot has happened since I last blogged in June and it seems like such a long time ago.


I am a wife of one husband, and a mother of 5 kids, although they don't seem like kids, they are all taller than me and and range in age from 17 -26, four boy kinds and one girl kind. At times I make a huge effort to understand them and then I get exhausted and practise putting on make-up instead, I feel I get that right sometimes!! If you don't agree, I don't need to know, thanks anyway!


The kid in the picture on the sides, thats me, I felt it necessary to let you see yourself that I had the whole fashion thing happening when I was 8, even knew how to accessorise with the clip in my hair and the peg holding my cape on, was wooden, not some plastic junk!


I have just launched a new business that I am excited about called "THIS IS WHO I AM". So I will pop over every now and then and share something funny, wise, stupid, sad and hopefully inspiring.

I want to hear from you, drop me a line, and for those who have asked me to write about something in particular, I'm getting on to it!


Many times I have been asked to start blogging so I have finally taken the plunge. My blog is going to be about everyday life and sharing the journey with you, hopefully you will be encouraged and I will learn how to do life better.

I have a busy, fun, crazy life but don't know that I would swap it in a hurry for a quiet, boring life, although every now and then would be nice.


I will be adding interesting and funny photos along the way!

Looking forward to the journey.

SOMEBODY HAS TO DO IT!

Now, before you start feeling completely sorry for me that
I had to go on my Girlfriend Retreat to Berry this weekend,
I thought I would share with you the things I had to buy so
I felt comfortable being away! I know, I know, it was a
sacrifice to leave a household full of males for 3 days and
be with my girlfriends, but somebody has to do it!

In my basket of goodies I found,

*12 Wine Glasses with bubbles already in them!
*A set of 3 cute notebooks, to take notes on my
girlfriends for my blog -
( shh, they don't actually know this!)
* A bottle of Stone's Original Green Ginger Wine.
* A fabulous pair of Red Felt & Cork Clogs
* The Real Hot Chocolate Spoon!
* Turkish Delight.
* A cute packet of Dried Fruit, Fruit Salad.

I offered to drive halfway, they thought I was being
nice but it was actually in my plan to stop at
the side of the road on the way to Berry where there
is a Brown Fridge full of fudge, the plan got even
better when I discovered no change in my purse
and the girls paid for the wonderful creamy caramel
fudge, life is sweet in the country!
We thanked the Jersey Cows in the paddock close by
for their contribution and took heed of the message
on the honesty box at the bottom of the fridge....

A Father told his Son on leaving home, "Let your
conscience be your guide".
