Things I Know

YAY - Friday is finally here so it must be time for Things I Know with Miss Cinders 'cos, as she will remind us, we all know sh*t.

In no particular order, because I do random so well :

- I know that I love being happy.

- I know that it is sooooooooooooooo much better than being sad and moody and all those other horrible things I have been feeling for the past I don't know how long.

- I know that A will be sorry that he isn't here to share in the happiness given he put up with my sh*t for so long (but hey, it happens like that sometimes !!)

- I know that running out of coconut rough IS NOT COOL and I need to make some more pronto !!!!!!

- I know that trying to crochet blankets while crying is not the best idea I have ever come up with.

- I know that I will cry during a show even when I know what is going to happen / who is going to win.

- I know that I loved the voices of Harrison, Luke and Celia and I have no idea how Danny got to the finals.

- I know that when I told K that Mom's know everything there would be times when she would call me on it. 

- I know that when she called me on it and I got the order of the top 4 finalists of The Voice (as well as something else very similar which I just can't remember right now), I went up in her estimation of my right to call myself Mom.

- I know that she is in for a rude awakening when she finally moves out of home (and that day will come because she sure as hell isn't going to be staying at home for too many more years - I'd like to say months but I think realistically it is going to be at least another year before she moves out !!)

- I know that she has the ability to make me laugh to the bottom of my belly.


- I know that K and I are off to see Slava's Snow Show on Wednesday night - at the expense of missing Origin 2 (which we are going to tape and watch when we get home).  I am looking forward to a fun evening even though I am a little bit nervous about why I shouldn't leave my seat during interval !!!!

- I know that thinking of the times when A has really really really annoyed me is a great way to get through periods when I am really really really missing him (yes, it sounds strange and yes it probably is but hey, don't change something that works !!!)

- I know that I am loving having my own laptop to work on every night (thank you A for getting the old one working for me when you were home)

- I know that I am looking forward to my hot stone and kahuna massage on Saturday and then meeting Judy.

- I know that it is Kylie from A Study In Contradictions' birthday today so why not pop over and wish her happy birthday ?

- I know that I can't wait to have some quiet time to read on Sunday - I have a heap of books that I need to read so I can return them to the library (the upside of reading paper books instead of e-books - they can't take them away until I drop them off at the library !!)

- I know that I shouldn't feel guilty because I don't have little children running around in my life and because I have so much time to myself - but I still do - a little bit - but I am working on it.  I've had my time with little babies and now it is time for myself  (having said that I sure am spending heaps of time with my little baby anyway - it's just a lot less tiring than when she was younger !!!)

- I know that it is time for me to go to bed and read for a while.

- I know that I may be just a little tempted to let the dogs sleep inside tonight so that I am not in the house all by myself.  Yes, I am a big wuss.  Some nights it is really hard for me to sleep in the bed by myself never mind the house by myself !!!!!



What do you know today ?  Why not join in at Miss Cinders ?
 

TFTD : Always look at the positives and don't dwell on the negatives. If you keep your head down, you'll miss life's goodness.

  1. I wish I felt guilty about not having little children running around in my life/house. But that is a long way off I think!

  2. I really thought Celia would be top 2 but I picked Harrison!! I hated Danny from the start and had the show kept the format from last year he probably would not have got through!!
    I am so glad you are in a happy place!! Don't feel guilty for having some you time. I am planning my me time for about 18 years time!
    Have a great weekend!!

    1. I'm so glad it wasn't only me - I have no idea how Danny got that far - I thought he wasn't very good at all (IMHO but then what do I know about music ????)
      I wonder if we will have the pitter patter of little feet in 18 years time ? Not if K has anything to do with it (well that is her thinking currently) but maybe if she meets the right person she will change her mind - I don't mind much either way - so long as she is happy.
      Take care and hope the scan goes well today !

  3. I don't get free to air teevee - or any teevee for that matter - so I am always out of the loop with shows people are watching! lol

    Had a little cack to myself about K moving out... yeah... hmmmmm... 27. I reckon she'll be 27 lol I should laugh, I bet all mine don't move out until then either! lol

    I love your way of getting over the sads when A is away. Although I'd probably end up cranky if I tried it where HUsband is concerned... though my house would get a good clean lol

    Have a fabulous weekend sweets :)

    1. LOL - don't mess with karma - there is a really good chance one of us won't be here if she is still living at home at 27 !!!!!! Seriously, I think we would have both driven each other nuts by then - unless A is still commuting to Whoop Whoop and back every month in which case the company will be good !!!!
      Take care !

  4. I love your opening statement (about being happy).
    It's funny when your partner is away - I stay up really late, usually watching really bad tv - then end up really tired the next day - then do it all over again. I have no idea why...
    I will be in big trouble if you hate Slava - but I find it hard to believe you will. You'll have to let me know what you thought...
    Never feel guilty about time to yourself. This is your life.

    1. I do exactly the same - I wonder if it has something to do with just not having the company ? The good thing is that most of the time I am so far behind in progams that I can catch up PLUS I prefer watching recorded programs so I can ff through the ads !!!
      From the reviews that I read, I am sure we won't hate Slava but will love it - will definitely let you know what we thought.
      Have the best weekend !

  5. I know I love reading your blog!

    I forgot to respond to you re #vvow. We should organise a time soon. I can't this weekend, but I'll check out the calendar and let you know when I'm free next. What suits you?

    1. Thank you so much for those kind words Francesca - I love that you love reading my blog !!!!!
      That's OK - I was thinking about the weekend after next (next weekend I am in Townsville with A) - so Friday the 5th July works for me - possibly the 6th depending on whether or not we are going to go up to the Gabba for the Suns game against the Lions.
      Have the best weekend !

  6. The massage sounds heavenly.

    Especially during this cold weather. Hot stones for the win!

    1. Thanks Kelley - I am certainly looking forward to the massage. The hot stones are really to help with a detox after coming off the anti-depressants (which hopefully will see the weight start to drop off).
      Have the best weekend !

  7. Man I couldn't imagine coming off my anti- depressants yet! But good on ya for doing it! Can't wait for tonight!
    Getting a bit of shit from Adam about it. Anyway, I'm finding it very difficult to think about the positive about it when his controlling nature shows itself. Talk about it later.

    1. Thank you for a great evening Judy - it was so good to meet and I loved all the chatting that we did. I hope that you can work out where you need to go and how is best for you to get there - I am only a phone call / e-mail away if there is anything I can do to help you.
      Have a great Sunday !

  8. I know that I wish that I had way more time to play with visiting other bloggers. Working full time sucks. xxx

    1. For sure working full time sucks - this is why I am waiting to win the Lotto big so I can stop working and start volunteering and having more time to do the things I want to do !!!
      Have the best day tomorrow !
