2012... 18 days in and already I'm almost loving this year
*meeting new friends.. well not entirely new friends.. I have known them for awhile but was never really welcomed to the circle as such, always a outsider looking in... maybe coz I don't really have anything in common with them...lol.. put all that aside and yeh I actually love spending time with them ... they challenge my western thinking ways... give me a different outlook... I have never been one to be swayed into another train of thought but as I have aged it seems I'm more open to listening... I love them already.
*Craft nights - I learned to crochet!!
*Walking to the beach with above mentioned friends.. swimming *almost* naked... and playing mum on the sand lookin after our shit throwing some poi around, while there butt ass naked in the water... something I wouldnt of done a month ago... sand.. yeh no thanks.
* Appendisitits.. yeh thanks universe now fuck off k thanx... 6 days in hospital, 1 removal of said appendix.. 2 weeks off work... it happened after my near naked swim... Athena is convinced it was the sea monkeys ;)
* Having the nephew.. hes 8.. he looks after my kids while i do other things lol.. win!
Stay tuned...

2012
What shall lie ahead for us this year??? hmmmmmmmm time will tell ey!
How am I feeling about this coming year... a little hesitant. The whole end of the world rabble makes me go hmmmmm... what if? but then the mainstream were invincible part of me goes.. pffft whatever... I look at my babies and the thought of us all going bam dead gone scares the shit out of me...
So my goals this year are simple ones.
** Spend as much time with my kids as I can
** Stop being so angry and frustrated all the time
** Money - this is a big one! - Pay off the last of the 3 credit cards, Its taken us 6 months to pay the other 2 off and they had more $$ on them then this last one! Once its paid off it will be cut up like the others - no more hire purchase/flexirent/interest free take now pay later crap.. just gets ya in trouble!
** Go on a holiday for the first time in 4 years... even if its just a few days.
** Get of social media so much, it just sucks our time and focus.
** Learn to crochet properly... i bought yarn yesterday with a friend, my aim is to make a granny square a day and then put them all together at the end of the year! I saw someone else have this idea and like the idea of it!
** Eat better, I must relearn how to cook properly, too long have i just gotten jars of crap and thrown it together with a bit of meat and some rice or pasta... its boring me
So that is all I can think of right now but we shall see how it goes hey.
