I do....

• I Dream : of one day living in Canmore...or having a second home there so I can pick up and go a couple of times a month or spend the Summer there...

• I Eat: too much.  Lately - since January I'd say, I've been eating far too much and I've gained more weight than I like.  I always do in Winter - I'm hoping that now Spring is here and I am more active again, that it will fall away again like it did last year.  

• I Love: refinishing old ugly furniture and making it into something beautiful and wanted....I guess the idea of taking something unwanted and making it loveable and wanted again means something to me...

• I Make: the most yummy roast potatoes by mixing a tablespoon of marmite into the hot oil and covering the potatoes in it....they have the yummiest roast beef flavour to them!!!  Mmmmm

• I Work: hard at giving my children a fun and relaxed childhood.  Filling their minds and days with hobbies, crafts, fun days out, friends, trips here and there, experiences, activities....they know that school is not important to me, but EDUCATION is...and to me there is a big difference between the two.  

• I Go: to a tanning salon in town that I love - it's so nice that they recognise me when I call and know my name when I walk in...and it's a friendly chatty place.  I love the sauna and how good it makes me feel, and the tanning has kept me going through this long Winter.  

• I Live: in a house that I have turned into an amazingly beautiful home - I have filled it with small touches, piece by piece that have changed it from an empty structure, to a home filled with memories, love, comfort...a place to relax, cozy up in during Winter...and enjoy the natural beauty outside of, all Summer :)

• I Play: with paints and mod podge and bits of paper...with collage pieces, brushes and brayers...they call it art, but I call it play..and it's relaxing and therapeutic and beautiful :)

• I Am: much stronger than I EVER thought I could be.  

• I Think: it will be a long time before I risk my heart again...but I'm going to see where things go this time anyway...because I'm hopeful.

• I See: a few changes taking place in my life in the next couple of months...I also see myself surrounded by amazing friends and support - I really am VERY lucky.  I feel so grateful for everyone in my life - I have some amazing friends xxx
