Things I Know

What do I know today ???

It's time to join in with Rhianna from A Parenting Life for Things I Know.

I know :

- that being alone doesn't mean I am lonely and that being in a crowd doesn't mean I'm not

- that joining a gym is a step in the right direction for my health and fitness

- that I am going to miss A & K while they are away

- that I am going to enjoy having some times to myself

- that I am going to enjoy being in sole charge of the remote and what DVD's I hire

- that I was tickled pink to receive an invitation to K's best friends 21st

- that I am looking forward to catching up with my friend who makes my stomach hurt because I laugh so much when we are together

- that I am prepared to watch a recording of the Grand Final in order to be able to spend the time with her

- that mailing my dietician and making a plan about how I am going to deal with food while I am living by myself was a great thing to do - planning, as always, is everything !

What do you know today ?
Have you linked in the easiest
linky over at Rhianna's ?
 
Have a great weekend and take care !

    1. Thanks Janet - I am actually feeling really good right now. Between the medication, the exercise and the eating, I am in a great place.
      Have a wonderful weekend !

  2. I know that I hope you really enjoy this time by yourself. If not for yourself but then for people like me who would give all most anything to have endless hours of alone time rather than the arsenic hours with children.
    I know exactly what you mean about the people and the alone.
    I know I am over the moon about you joining in #thingsIknow, thank you

  3. I know that I am jealous of your time to yourself! But I am sure the novelty wears off very quickly. I also know that I'm back to work Sunday and my day off has gone FAR TOO QUICKLY as usual :(

    1. You are right - the novelty does wear off quickly. At least I have lots of projects at home to keep me occupied and out of mischief !!!
      Sorry you have to go back to work on Sunday - it's sucky that you have to go back to work but Sunday is a horrible day for that to happen.
      Hopefully your next lot of holidays will be here before you know it !
      Have a great Saturday !

  4. oh, you've made me feel bad because I've opted to watch the GF on tv instead of go on family outing - bad mumma. Go Freo! (not really committed, just think it would be nice for them)

    1. I was like that - I hoped Freo would win but I didn't think they would !!!
      Have the best day !

    1. I couldn't agree with you more - time alone is definitely ESSENTIAL for ones mental health !!! I'm so glad someone else sees it like that - LOL

  6. Enjoy your space and if you do need extra company (other than the very funny friend - I'm not so humerous) we could hang out. I love how you have things that you know that aren't black and white - that you can miss family while still enjoying space without them. Wisdom is understanding both truths.

    1. Thanks Kathy ! I think that I am probably going to be going to wherever A is for the long weekend - provided we find out with enough time to book tickets. But, I will definitely be in touch the following week about catching up somewhere along the line.
      Have the best day !
