30 Days Whoops

Ok so I have come to the realisation I'm not the world's best blogger and forcing myself to do something like the 30 Day challenge wasn't the smartest thing to attempt!

Today I went to 2 baby showers, the first was SiL's second and the other one was one of the girls I made friends with at a tempt job last year. The first one was very very pink (for obvious reasons) and low key which was nice. The second was AWESOME, lots of women we drew on bibs and played games it was all lots of fun and exactly what I'm after when we finally have a baby.

We went through baby names at the first shower (we had to do a name for each letter of the surname) and my list was her favourite. This of course leads to problems because our name taste is way too similar but then when she mentioned what they were actually thinking I wasn't very keen on them so I guess that's good. I blame my brother-in-law though because he thinks too many names are artsy. She had a gorgeous name picked but he would let her use it because he thought the possible nickname too artsy! Oh well, we keep telling her to just talk him into when she's actually giving birth!

Hubby is ALMOST finished with uni for the year (and fingers crossed this time next year it will be over forever). I'm so excited for him but at the same time I feel terrible because he's really getting sick of studying and over it all. Which I completely understand he's been at uni for almost 8 years (and he's not even studying medicine!).

Next Monday we finally move into our new digs (Mum's old place where we got ready for the wedding) and I can't wait to decorate. Mum's pretty much given us free run to paint, drill holes etc... AWESOME! It'll be like our own home and at least I know money is going to Mum (who definitely deserves it) instead of some random people. Now if only this place would rent out so we could actually pay Mum!

Day 4: Something you have to forgive someone for & Day 5: Something you hope to do in your life

Day 4: Something you have to forgive someone for.

There are a lot of things but I don't believe in forgiveness unless the person is deserving..yes that might sound tough but stuff it this is my blog.

I guess I forgive my Dad for not being the best Dad he could be. I'm definitely glad my parents got divorced and we got to live with Mum. Dad was not the best person to be around when we were younger but I've definitely forgiven him for that and having him and Mum walk me down the aisle was one of the happiest moments of my life.

It's funny how I am the least most forgiving person I know yet, I'm also the most caring and giving. I guess I can't live by Rafiki's motto of 'It doesn't matter it's in the past'. I'm the kind of person that if you screw me over that's it you're out. Life is too short to waste it on mean people...unless they're family and that's a whole other kettle of fish!




Day 5: Something you hope to do in your life.

Other than be a Mum? Haha

I want to watch my husband take part in designing/building our dream home. I know as an Engineering student this is something he's interested in and I really love the idea of it. It would really make the place 'our' home.

But me personally - currently it's to visit Africa with my highschool friends. Mentally it's to stop giving a crap about other people and just enjoy my life in terms of me.

Day 3: 30 Days of Truth

Day 3: Something you have to forgive yourself for.

This is a tough one, I can't really think of anything that I should forgive myself for (sounds so serious/deep and meaningful!). I guess I forgive myself for being crazy...forgive the hate but that seems a bit silly. I feel like it should be something serious that happened in my past but nothing serious really has happened. I don't have anything that I regret or need forgiveness for so I guess I should just be proud for that right!

Or maybe I should forgive myself for not doing Nanowrimo...this would be the first year it would be easy for me to do it because the only commit I have is moving house at the end of the month!!! But that's a pretty big exercise.

We're so excited, we're moving into my Mum's old place very New York old school meets Paris tres chic hehe. Both Hubby and I love the place and it's where I got ready for my wedding so what better place to start a family (even if the stairs are highly unfriendly to little ones). I can't wait to have a shower with doors no a shower curtain that sticks to me cos the shower is so small, no dodgy drains/water pipes and no more black washing coming out with white marks all over WOO HOO!!! Finally back to it (and celebrating my 6 year anniversary YAY!).
