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.

LET ME COUNT THE WAYS ... THAT I AM THANKFUL TODAY.

I was walking through the carpark an hour ago with my
trolley thinking that I really couldn't be bothered taking
it to the trolley bay even though I had $2 invested in it,
I was too busy thinking that I really wanted to get home
and do something productive and I had spent about
$105 more on groceries than I intended to today, I had
only really planned to get $10 worth of fruit, but ah
Mr. Martelli @ Rouse Hill Town Centre, I do love you!

I tuned into where my thoughts were taking me and
how I could think differently and started to be thankful
that while, yes I would have to take maybe 200 more
steps to return the trolley but I didn't have to walk ten
kilometres on some dusty road with my groceries or
water balanced on my head in extreme heat , and I
would get a return of $2 for the hire of my trolley,
a 100% return!! And if I really didn't want to go shopping
I could always sit at home on my computer and order
whatever I needed online and they even carry the
groceries into my kitchen!!

I thought that my children are well and happy and
will eat well tonight and tomorrow night and I don't
need to be concerned that the water they are drinking
might be contaminated with parasites that breakdown
body's through a variety of diseases.

Sometimes we can think life is hard then we think
compared to what.......

    That $2 could be critical later in the week for a coffee! You're right things could have been far worse... :)
