The Weather

You know you have nothing interesting to write when you want to make a blog entry about the weather.

But, seriously.

This heat - it's driving me nuts. It's just so damn hot ALL THE TIME! Even at night.

It doesn't help that I sit in an office with no airconditioning.

Give me Autumn/Spring anytime!

Judging People.

Why do people judge?

This isn't relating to anything specific, just a few things that I have seen and it makes me wonder - why?

I know that I've done it before, I'm sure everyone has done it as some point in their life.

But.. What does it achieve?

Nothing.

I was reading something someone had written that stating something along the lines of "It's like one of the bogan children, with a very young Mother".

I took offense to this. I'm not a Mum (yet), but when I do have a baby, I will be considered what society deems to be a "Young Mum" - is there anything wrong with this?
I don't think so.

Just because I will be young, does not mean that I will not make a good Mother. It does not mean that I will not be able to raise my child properly. It does not mean that my child will not be loved, or wanted.

Sure, a 30 year old has more life experience than a 20 year old, however, I'm sure that a 20 year can still teach a 30 year old a few things .... and vise versa.

Back in my Grandparents day (and Great Grandparents) it was the norm to have children young, I'm sure they weren't judged.

Then, there's the whole "I don't like that person because she/he dresses like this... or looks like that" It's just plain wrong!

I remember in school I had to deal with a lot of bullying - you would think that being an adult, it would change, but apparently not. The same thing happens, people still judge over clothes, or dress size, or even the food you choose to eat.
It's a never ending cycle.

Why can't people be happy without judging or bullying? I always think that someone who bullies is insecure in themselves.

Imagine what the world would be like if there wasn't any of this bullshit. A much, much nicer place.

Baby J

A friend of mine had her two twin baby boy's almost two weeks ago.

They were born at 27 weeks.

Unfortunately, one of them isn't doing so well, and it seems that he may not have the strength in him, to keep on fighting.

Baby J ~ May you have the strength to keep on fighting, or the courage to let go, when it feels right for you.

Your Mummy, Daddy and Twin Baby Brother, Love you so so much... As do the rest of your friends and family... Stay strong little one xx

So....

I've always wanted to start a blog, then I was linked to this site and I thought why not?! So, here I am.

I can't promise you that my blog will be of anything interesting - I do however enjoy writing and will write about anything, some boring, some sad, some happy .... whatever takes my fancy on any particular day.

A little bit about me; I'm married to A, we have been married over a year. We live in a little house (Maybe that's an overstatement, a small cottage suits better!), we have a beautiful little doggie that keeps us entertained. We both work full time, and soon hope to one day add to our family with a baby or two!
I hate housework, but then, who doesn't? I do it anyway.
I like growing my own vegetables, it makes me feel like I am achieving something, so far I've grown cucumber, tomato, capsicum, snow peas, corn and lettuce - for my first attempt, I was pretty impressed with the outcome.

I'm constantly wanting to do things around the house, which drives my Husband mad. He tells me that all I do is add to "The List"; apparently it's a wife thing, we all do it, and apparently we also do is on purpose, to drive our husband's mad! It's not true - I just like to "do things", whatever they may be. This week I've decided that one of our spare bedroom's needs painting, this is the second one that I've painted so I know that I am capable - so while Hubby is at work, I will start on my task.

About the list thing, it's probably true what he says... Before we even moved into the house I had started on the list - We had this horrible concreate backyard, not an inch of grass insight, that soon changed! The week we were back from our honey moon, the backyard got demolished, and grass was layed. Although he did all the hard work, it was my brillant idea! Now I even have a clothes line, which I can tell you, makes a huge difference!

Now, I'm rambling off track, I was talking about vegetables and now I'm talking about backyards! Back to the other topic... Apart from vegetables, I make my own yoghurt, I've tried making my own bread a few times, I still need to master that... Or maybe buy a bread maker!

I hate exercise, but again, it's one of those things I do anyway - I'm not a gym junkie or anything, but I do take my dog for a walk (or should I say, she takes me for a walk, because all she does is pull!), which she enjoys.

I've been through a lot to be where I am today; maybe one day I'll share, but for now, I know that I'm in good place, and I'm happy where I am in my life.

Hope the sun is shining in your life today...

Until next time

B.
