healthy beginnings!!!
well well well, here’s to me finally getting my act together and feeling happy about my choice. after months of stop start, l think this is it. l have finally found yoga that l actually really like and want to continue with from now on *fingers crossed* my body has been crying out for excercise for a long time and at times l did excercise then stop coz my brain always came up with excuses not to.
anyways started yoga today and boy do l feel good, even my body is smiling. so have booked my next few classes and will be doing so forever. now……..jogging, coz l really really wanna jog *mind you, l did jog a few months ago, then this annoying weather gave me an excuse not to….* l will get there…

made my day!!!!
omg l had the best day ever last week thanks to the most precious client ever. she wrote a *the most heartfelt* thank you card to staff of the help that she had received and for the first time *well, from a client not the other way round…lol* in my job l cried *more like bowled my eyes out* l cried because it was the most beautiful words from someone who has faced the most horrific and traumatic past a teenager could have experienced yet all she could see was hope then now and in the future. oh just thinking about it makes me teary all over again.
it was also challenging to me as she wrote about her faith and how God has been there for her always *quite challenging words were in there, wish l could just copy it for you all so you know exactly what l’m saying or how l felt* she made my otherwise ungrateful job the best job in the whole wide world *were you actually receive gratitude for work done* she will go far and can certainly not wait to meet up with her in the future to see were she’s at.
thank you thank you thank you!!!!!!!

what a day!!!!!!
today has been the longest day ever and boy am l glad its over. my morning started off on a crappy note but all’s good and the rest of it just dragged. l had a four day weekend and one would imagine you would come back to work refreshed, but nope, it was slow and boring. l had no clients to see *not that l wanted to see them today though could have been much better having appts* so l just sat in my office keeping myself somehow busy. did l mention that l was also freezing which probably added to the crappy day..
anyways, there’s always tomorrow right……

what’s with this unit?
l live in a block of units and have lived here for the past two years. l pretty much know who my neighbours are *well don’t remember names but we do chat at times* Everyone is still here, but there is one unit, that l swear has a new tenant every three to six months *l can’t keep up with who is who anymore*
Is it the landlord’s fault that they do not keep tenants for long? Is it the agent’s fault or is there something about the unit that makes people leave within a few months of moving in? Mind you, even if the unit is occupied, the tenant is never home most of the days, so l would probably see them at least once a month or never at all.
What is wrong with the unit and why do people always move out within months? *shaking head* ………………………

weather……….grrr!!!!!!!!
Omg, l just realised l have not posted anything for donkey years but this stupid weather has prompted me to do so. Well this is what happened. We are in september and its supposed to be spring but it still feels like its winter and l’m sooooo over the cold weather let alone the rain.
It rained cats and dogs today and l had a surprise in store for me when l got home. l left my lounge window open about 10cm wide to let some air in not knowing it was going to rain *after all we had quite good weekend weather, why would l think it’s going to rain* When l got home, half of my lounge carpet was soaking wet………..*screaming right now like l did when l walked in…………..omg l’m reliving it again*
My first thought was to just ignore it and hoped it will sort itself out, then l picked up the phone and called my sister for a whinge. In the end l realised that it was not going to fix itself so l spent the next hour with towels, stomping around *probably lost a few kilos in the process…..lol*to try and get as much water out of the carpet as l can.
Ggggrrrrrr!!!!!!!!!!! l’m not happy about this, bloody rain. Whatever happened to September being spring and lovely?

photography class 2 & 3
well its been three weeks since l started my photography course and have five more to go. week two was ok, didn’t really enjoy it as much coz l had such an emotional week comprising of a very high then a massive low. l had to drag myself to go to the class which l took on a different day. *l learnt something….l think* and was actually glad l went instead of sitting on my couch, mopping and feeling sorry for myself.
week three was good, l was very attentive though some things just went straight through one ear and out the other. l didn’t know that the camera has sooo many buttons and functions *thought it was just press the button-click-photo taken . l’ve got a lot to learn. l must say l’m understanding the classes and am looking forward to maximising my camera to its full potential.
l just need to get out there and do my homework *have not done any since l started* naughty me. …………….l will get to it or shall l say the dog ate my homework (don’t know what excuses for not doing homework are being used now, been years since l was last in school)
here’s to next class!!!!!!!!!

week one – photography!
l started my eight week long photography course today and boy did l come out of the class one excited chickie. why, you might ask. well because l now know *well think l do……..work in progress but get the gist of it* how to or what it means to use the manual function on my SLR camera. yes it’s been explained to me before but it obviously just went over my head, but today l learnt what it all means including the apperture and shutter and the numbers.
mmm, l’m on my way to becoming the biggest photographer ever……..lol!!!! can’t wait for week two.

inspiration!!!!
l had the most unusual but very good talk at work with a client during an appointment. she started telling me her story which was and is quite sad for a girl her age (but then they all are). this particular girl brought a very different perspective that l hardly see in most of them. she was not wallowing in self – pity neither was she playing the victim.
she is a girl who is not afraid to stand up for what is right yet still finds a good balance to mix her two worlds together the right way and not rebel. she was genuinely full of hope, a person l see one day as an educator not only for her community but to everyone at large. the way she spoke about her belief even when questioned about it, to speak for herself and be able to know what has been ingrained and were she really stands *not being defensive* l mean words can hardly explain what a breath of fresh air that was and l pray that she gets to realise her dreams
*aaaarrrggghhh l wish l could give all the details for it to all make sense but can’t* but one thing for sure, l see her doing great things *she is a girl with genuine drive and ambition, questioning with a hunger to know more, does not just take in but reflects and evaluates in order to know the reason why it is and above all she has her faith and knows why she believes in what she believes* truly inspiring, l even felt inspired.
