And That Was April


Marvelling: At home grown goodness - from garden to plate 
Knowing: I need to replant more carrot seeds and tend to my garden 
Wishing: There were more hours in the day to achieve everything I want to
Thinking: How when I was so sick last year this amazing Mama simply told me to put my kids on a plane and send them to her!  
Liking:  Being in Wellington on a Mama and me weekend.  Liking staying with bloggy friends who have become IRL friends who have become family friends.  Catching up with lovely Wellington bloggy friends.
Feeling: That this is what blogging is all about - connections.  
Wanting: to find my blogging mojo again and not to be scared to write.


Needing: To grieve - To show emotion
Deciding: Death is nothing we can expect (even when we were expecting it) or imagine (until we are experiencing it) and 'hiding/suppressing' our grief in the public eye was not the right way for me 


Buying: Coffee
Drinking : Coffee
Smoothie and morning coffee
Coffee at the gym 
Coffee at the airport
Coffee after the gym
Coffee whilst event planning
Coffee sitting outside listening to the rain


Making : my summer crochet blanket - (that I started last summer)
Reading: Text books Text books oh and Text books - Medieval Europe so much easier on the heart mind and soul than Gender Violence
Watching: Netflix . . . loving it . . . Upstairs Downstairs 


Wearing: A timing chip on my shoes for my 2nd 1/2 marathon training race
Noticing: How other peoples comments still affect my heart
Getting: Fitter and Healthier 


Looking: At paper piecing 
Pondering: Life and Death 
Hoping: I find my paper piecing knack as I have a giraffe to make 


Playing: On the swings before my Boxing Bootcamp
Giggling: Like a child
Feeling: Free ... Flying through the air
Considering: Doing this more often - it frees the mind



Enjoying: Exercise !  I love it ! 
I'm fit and healthy and I get to hang out and exercise with amazing friends all in the name of exercise.
Loving: Exercise
Waiting: for a bus .. .. .. wall sits!  honestly who's idea was that?
Wondering: Why people never commented on my weight 18 kilos ago but yet they feel compelled to now I've lost it?  hmmmmmm

love these posts and what cool paper piercing. I am sure I did Medieval Europe 18 years ago and maybe flunked it...?! I'm doing Medieval women next semester as it is the last compulsory history paper I have to do - the language in the textbooks has freaked me out already! Not sure if it really is a 'me' paper but better than politics or sports history etc!

A thought provoking post. I always enjoy your posts, they give me something to think about, we all have something to share. I had a wee giggle at the coffee photo's! Coffee............yes coffee!! Wishing all the joy and laughter you can take...........Not sure what to say about the comment about your weight?
