Thought of the day..

What matters most.. the journey.. or the destination?

Thought of the day.. on love.. and is it ever okay to settle

When you meet someone..
It's not uncommon to see them as, or think, they're the best thing since slice bread..

If .. after really getting to know them, you still think that way..
You may be on to a winner

Sometimes though.. you may find yourself saying..
errr..you know what?.. it's not me.. it's you!. :)

So is it ever okay to settle?
Perhaps for business reasons/family/finance/age/little choice/make do and mend/children/shared goals/faith/illness
I'm sure it's okay, and in some cases ( for some) makes perfect sense.
It's a risk.. but isn't love always?

I guess some will.. and others wont have to

The day before the weekend

I haven't said this for a while but ..TGIF!
A few stories caught my imagination this week..

Firstly footballer Gareth Bale will reportedly be earning £300,000 a week after his move to Real Madrid
( can you imagine?.. I can.. would be lovely)
errr.. bills?.. what bills?

The second was a woman from NY who was called the N word..

by her manager..

and was awarded $280,000
Can you imagine?... [click]

Interesting case.. but sad.

Enjoy the day before the weekend :)

Body clocks..

I'm still trying to get my body clock back on track.

Prior to the summer break I was a 5.30/6am riser. Now... I'm struggling to manage 6.30.. its become more like 6.50.
I know ( for me) 7am means I'm running really late.
I'm also trying to make sure I have a decent breakfast which includes eggs, so that takes a little longer. Longer it takes me to get ready, the later I get to work. Later I get to work.. the later I have to stay.. later I stay.. later I get home.. later I get home.. later I get my bath.. later I get my bath.. later I have dinner.. later I have dinner later I get to do everything else.. later I do everything else.. later I have me time.. later me time means.. later I get to bed.. later i get to bed...
get my drift?...

So.. The solution is I simply have to force myself back into the rhythm,.. and get up earlier!!!!
Ouch.

My song for the day (which was yesterday lol)

Stevie Wonder
It's foggy outside.. Autumn has arrived



Yes.. definitely in the mood for some Stevie

A walk in the park

Life isn't always a walk in the park
But sometimes a walk in the park.. is just fine

A lovely hot day today..
Now i'm quite tuckered out!
Selected my module for this term.. I wavered briefly between gender and social justice ( with a focus on the welfare state)
I chose gender
Gut feeling, as both interest me
Hey.. it seems I'm becoming a lot more decisive.

So not very Libran of me. :)
an early night beckons...

Citizen or Stranger

Good Morning September

Woke up early this morning to start dinner and get Ti's birthday cake in the oven

Smells good so far.
I used brown sugar on my old recipe, I normally use white sugar , so it may taste a bit different.. we'll see

As I began mixing, this came on Aljazeera, and was really interesting.. great documentary.
BLACK FRANCE

looking forward to the other episodes, which I'll post when they become available.

Anyway.. this should should be transformed into a full on Birthday Cake soon enough

Happy Birthday to Ti.. 20 today.
and Happy September to all.

didn't take too long..

and finally..

Dance it out..








Snoop's acting like he's not into it.. but he loves it really..



Then relax..
