Life, Love and the Everyday

Life What more can I say? Life keeps everyone busy. Everyone is going through a different season and are trying to adjust to what comes under the sub-heading of that season. Some people are going through a season of joy and laughter.  Some people are going through grief, heart-ache and pain. And others are just trying to find their place in a world that is exciting as it is unpredictable. There are times when I wish I could see the future and what it holds for me and A. I try to guess, estimate, presume and sometimes try to help God along a bit but when I do, I usually find my help is not appreciated or needed - and then I get worked up about it, I begin to analyse and dissect and then end up flustered because I don't know what to do, because I don't know The Plan. When I try to snatch the keys away from God, I find I can start the car but can't make it drive. Love For the past six months I have been adjusting to the fact that my close family unit are spread o...

LIFE Our lives won't be the same now that Pokémon Go! has invaded the phones of game lovers everywhere. For the past couple of days I have been looking at A. and he's on his phone catching fantasy creatures. Last night A. and I were walking along Queens Street looking for some dinner before catching the Jimoin show at QPAC and this group of young bucks walk by talking loudly.

Bloody Pokémon! Life is going okay. There are just days when I wish I had studied Literature straight out of high school because back then I was an empty slate.

Life It's 7:23am and I am at the bus stop at Garden City. It's a cold morning and the first day of the work week. If you ask me Australians would definately benefit from a three day weekend! On the whole, life is good. I did a huge spring-clean in my room yesterday and shifted furniture around to make room for my new reading nook. I am thrilled about it but there is still the matter of my Work Within A Legal & Ethical Framework assessment. I know what to do but I don't know where to look. Ugh! Love A. and I are going great. He's awesome. I'm fabulous. He looks hot behind a polling desk and for once in my life I think it's a shame you can't vote twice. However, I just want to talk about my sisters *Victoria and *Cassandra. We had a sleep-over and had a movie marathon and I know it sounds juvie but I hope that even when we are over forty that we'll still have movie nights. The three of us have already made a pact about our daughters - that if...
