What I Love About... Today.

I hung out the washing and cleaned the back table and it's only 7:45am.
I love being productive.
The net is back on and functioning again. I love Telstra. I will (try to) never doubt them again. I have oats in my belly. I love honey in the morning :) I have a job. A decent job. They pay is poor and there is a lot to learn but it's an income and independence for me. I love that.

I have a boy in my bed that I can now go back to and snuggle for 5 minutes and I love him. Today will be great!

Your turn :)

What I Love About: Me

This past week has been a great one in terms of self confidence. I'm looking at my blog post about how I fat I felt and realising how stupid I sound, already! It's been less than a month. I don't think I would have bounced back as well as I did without the kind words of my blogging friends. And the attitudes they have towards their bodies. Living in a small town it's easy to get caught up on what everyone else is doing and eating and posting on their facebooks. But a lot of the time it's all one big front. Which is why I love blogging. None of us are here to impress each other. Or compete. We're here to SUPPORT each other. I can't imagine taking the time to comment on someone's blog putting them down; it hasn't even crossed my mind. Yet in real life I am constantly having to let bitchy comments roll off my back, fending them off with a chuckle or a calm face. Frankly, I'm sick of it. There is far too much negativity in the world and I don't want to put up with it anymore. So this is going to be a bit of a habit for me. Rambling about what I love. Starting with myself.



Sometimes I can come across as a bit full on I think; I talk a lot, but that doesn't mean I don't listen. Sometimes my friendly banter can hurt feelings, but I'm getting better at apologising when my intentions have been mistaken. Sometimes I'm a bit of a perfectionist; mainly and mostly on myself. Sometimes I'm a complete brat, and a bitch, and a terrible girlfriend because I overreact and flip out at stupid things; but I'm man enough to admit when I'm wrong a little quicker every time.

I'm strong. I've overcome a lot. I don't spend time feeling sorry for myself as much as I once did. I don't judge people by their appearance. I don't waste my breath on those that do, me. I give second, third and fourth chances when they're asked for. I have a unique smile with my little teeth and children canine teeth (I don't have adult replacements up there! lol). I'm proud of my complexion, no matter how many people ask me why I'm so pale. (I know! It happens at least twice a year.. we're talking shopping assistants etc. *sigh*) I chose our kitties out, and they are perfect. I'm awesome at Donkey Kong video games. I have a great bum. I now eat olives and mushrooms and drink some wines because I've become much more open-minded. I'm the first person to go and talk to the person alone at the party. I will never smoke. I learn quickly. I love strongly. I sing loudly. I am me and think my Dad would be proud of the person I am and will be. I got noticed by David, even though he was 6 years older and I had no idea anything would ever happen and now I have this wonderful boyfriend who describes me as those 6 words on the left near my picture. I am going to be an excellent mum one day. That's why I love me.

What do you love about you?
