Birthday & Christmas Lunch!
December 18th marked my Mothers birthday, so to celebrate we invited the family out to lunch as a Birthday/ Early Christmas celebration. Last year I held Christmas at my place in Adelaide, so seeing as I’m back here, we are just taking it easy on Christmas day. We went to Blacktown Workers club, they have a nice all you can eat buffet. My niece Sharntelle and I. It was good getting to catch up with my family, I hadn’t seen my Uncle since my Grandmother funeral 18 months ago. We have a pretty crazy to explain family in terms of family tree, so you may get a little lost at…

Quick Pics, Instragram & my back!
So, at the moment, it seems I won’t be needing surgery. Yay. Basically, to put it in understandable terms, a couple of my discs have bulged and certain ways I move it will hit against my spinal cord, which is what causes the loss of feeling to my legs. I have anti inflammatory medication and I have to have extensive physio. My doctor is hoping this will ease the pain, because he really doesn’t want to have me go through spinal surgery at 25. Yesterday we had a family gathering. Every year of that Dad’s side of the family often get together for a BBQ. As i’ve been in Adelaide, i’ve not been able…

OOTD – Black & neon!
Yesterday I was having an ‘ugly day’. You know those day’s when you wake up, you have nothing to wear, nothing looks good, everything is horrid. One of those days. I had a small outting with my sister and nephew and didn’t want to cancel just because I felt blah. The weather was rather dreary, but i’ve been suffering a bit of anxiety the past few days (another reason why I pushed myself to get out of the house) and my ‘fight or flight’ reflex has had me getting very hot. One thing that never fails to make me feel more ‘ME’, more happy, are bright colours. Notice I’ve finally…

Musings on Life.
No doubt with everything that’s happened to me the past few months has me feeling like i’m living in a different universe. Sugars recent blog just got me thinking even more. So many people have a set plan for life. They are going to go to school, get a specific job, find a partner, get married, buy a house, have kids. For me, my ultimate goal is to find happiness. A general middle ground of feeling safe, loved and content. I think with my mental health, I just focus on the main goal. I sometimes find it hard to open up, to talk about things & also how much to share on…

Of life, death & blogging. (May be triggering)
I often struggle with how much to share on my blog. Everyone has their own idea on what should & shouldn’t be shared. It’s a fine line that I worry about crossing. But why? Isn’t this MY blog? I started this blog for me & it’s grown into what it is today, and I love it. I know I have a mind that over analises things. But I’m an honest person, so why can’t I be honest on my blog when I want to? I guess the main reason is, that I’m scared. The blogging world, while lovely, can be harsh. Owls of Happiness, my friend Lou gave me. They…
