Fresh Mint and Lemon Balm

'Be where you are, otherwise you'll miss your life.' Being present is something I am always striving for. I know I feel better when I achieve it and the simplest tasks such as spring cleaning my room become joyful. It took me a while because I got into sorting and clearing spaces and decided to change some pictures in frames. (Emma's bird, painted for my birthday, a photo from Figi to remind me of simplicity. And a lovely photo of my Mum and Bernard taken when we were all in Australia 10 years worth of moons ago.)

I am sipping fresh mint, (including chocolate mint which is incredible) and lemon balm tea from the allotment, which is covered in about a 100 dandelion clocks, which if I'm honest I love, the remind me of childhood and happy times with Stu when we first got it and it was a shock of yellow!

The weekend was pretty close to perfect, Emma, John and I dressed up as cats for a house warming party, where we were the only ones in fancy dress! We enjoyed ourselves back-combing our hair and making tales though and I did some tale dancing.

Saturday was very chilled, Chats from bed, making a gift, catching up with Jeanette, bathing..followed by a wonderful evening of amazing music, dancing with lots of friends and heart to hearts with Jenny and Lorry. Felt very blessed and fully charged from having so much fun.

This week its back to applications and hoping to get some supply work, fingers crossed! It feels like luck is changing and I'm enjoying the beautiful sun light day moment by moment.
