(Come on we all have THOSE sort of days)
.. I begin to wonder how my life has come to this point, why me? ... woe is me! ... such is life! ... could be worse, could be raining ... que sera, sera ... and all that jazz.
In all seriousness though, life is actually good.
Yes, the kids drive me up the wall
Yes, I don't always like the person staring back in the mirror
Yes, I'm tired of being a PS3 widow on husbeast's few nights off work
But y'know what, we have our health, we have healthy, happy children, a good relationship and direction in our lives. I'd say that's pretty good.
Life is never perfect and I would never claim it to be, just ask the other customers in Kfart this afternoon who watched as I frantically tried to run in opposite directions after my rambunctious 2 and 4 year olds, yelling out in vain hope that they might actually cause me to die of shock by listening for ONCE, just like all the mothers I used to shake my head at as a teen (That's called Karma, 15-year-old-me!)
I think my goal to be more positive might just be coming to fruition ;)

New Year, New Car, New Job, New Me!!!
Well, life has changed so much in the last few months...
I managed to get, not just one, but two job offers!!! I think I surprised myself with the one I chose. I had the plan all set out for working at the big public hospital I had been at for most of my studies. My final placement changed my whole outlook and job prospects completely! So now I start work, in just a few short weeks, at the best little hospital around. The staff are so nice, for the most part, and I'm really looking forward to it. It was my second job offer, just a day after the first, and the decision was easy, a lot easier than I thought it would be.
The summation of my hard work for the last 4 years was just two weeks ago(4 days before Xmas!) and it was such a happy, and to be honest, emotional day. Graduating is something to be proud of, but Uni had been a huge part of my life for so long, its scary to think of moving on from that stage of my life. But alas I must ;-)
My reward for my hard work and becoming a full time member of the health workforce, a Brand New Car!!! Its little and pretty and blue!
Now onto the hardest of changes, new me! Everyone makes resolutions for the new year, and while I consider this to be a much earlier work in progress, this is one I will follow through! I will become the healthier, slimmer Mummy that my babies deserve. Burying my head in the sand about it is not an option anymore, I'm fast approaching an age where my weight will start affecting my health if it hasn't already.
Onwards and upwards from here...
