Wow how fast is this year flying !!

Have been really unwell the last couple of weeks :(  Looks like I am on the mend now after lots of rest and some anitbiotics :) yay.

The last 24 hours have been awesome and they say laughter is the best medicine. Well they are not wrong. I was feeling a bit blah after work last night but a night with the girls and lots of laughing certainly brightened me up and by the end of the night I was feeling alot better. Then today a road trip with 2 of my best friends was just what the doctor ordered. It was fantastic. Off to Olinda and some time just walking around and browsing. Something I don't get to do with my family as they get too bored.

I got myself a really nice rose quartz to put by my bed and a necklace that is a little different. I have decided that it is time I realised my memories are not in a piece of jewellery but in my heart and I don't need to wear it to be close I just need to feel. :D

2 days in work next week and then off for a week yay :)

Well the wedding  came and went and now the editing begins... It was really fun. Apart from the bride being 45 mins late.... I believe they had trouble getting her dress laced up at the back. They were all stunning though. I must say I got alot of shots I am happy with, but then the reception shots so far I am not happy with at all :( I really hate flash photography. Something I really need to work on improving.

My study is going well. Another high distinction for the next subject :) Study now has started at work too. That one isn't as intense though so thats a good thing.

I am getting over a horrid head cold :(  But life has had it's roller coaster ride again. But thanks to good friends and loving family I get through every time :D  I just need to learn BALANCE.

I need to get back into the exercise routine again and good eating habits which always helps.

School holidays are upon us again and I think we are all ready for a break.

Gareth is finding certain people at work really hard to deal with, especially as it puts more on his shoulders because they don't like to pull their weight.

We have decided that now is not the right time for us to buy a house. We are comfortable where we are with our finances at the moment and don't want to be in a position that we can't afford any luxuries.

Thats about all the updates I have ... till next time xx
