Meet Up: Taking the Kids Out!

Bonjour everyone,

We are already halfway through May.  Here in the UK it is still quite cold! We get two or three days of beautiful weather followed by many days of rain!

So, here I am, in my flat, it is dark outside and quite gloomy! It has not stopped raining.  Nevertheless, that is when I realise the importance of always ensuring the sun shines inside your heart.  Otherwise, the weather can really make you sad!!! And I am not talking about winter yet!

On a good note, last weekend, I took the kids to a pet show in London! They love pets and are trying to convince me to buy one, especially a dog! 

I used to have dogs and cats when I was younger but that was in Africa, where your garden space is pretty big so, no need to go out many times a day for the dogs to stretch their legs!

It was a great show, there were many many animals there! My son loved it, especially the bugs, he loved touching them.


All the kids managed to convince me to hold the bugs too! It was just horrible!!!

How funny though, that the little creatures are smaller than us humans and we can get so scared by them! Well I do!

These bugs and animals are very fast, that is what makes me most uncomfortable.  However, you have to try new things in life and I tried under the pressure of my beautiful darlings!

So, what are you going to try this week? Just to push yourself a little bit? Just a little challenge, maybe do something that scares you?

Enjoy this week and try something that you would not normally do. The more you do it, the easier it will be to do it again!!!

Au Revoir!

Challenge: Start Today!

Bonjour everyone,

Well, well, well, I hope you are all doing fine! Here in the UK the weather is starting to look much nicer!   A little bit of sunshine and we are all happier!

Today, I am even happier, I get to take my daughter to school! This is one of the things I have always wanted to do and I have found a way to do it, instead of rushing to wok very early in the morning and missing those nice moments!

Sometimes, we want to be successful so that we can start doing those sort of things.  However I have realised that it's possible to start today, there is always a way! Now I am happier and feel like I have achieved one of my ultimate goals!

The challenge for me this week was to start making YouTube videos. I have made one but was too shy to put it up. This is definitely out of my comfort zone, but watch out as it will be out soon!

Last weekend, I really pampered myself! One of the things that I find really important is to look after yourself! I always meet people who are so focused on success that it is all work and no play! Well, I did not do much but instead, I went out for breakfast, had a nice vegetarian meal (oh yes, I have also started a new eating habit, healthy eating!).

Then I did my eyebrows and my best friend did my hair!  It was so nice to do things for myself for once, to show myself that I love me!

I met up with two friends who are also single mums, we had a great time chatting and eating! (God is starting something!)

So guys, it is in the little things, not the big things that you will find ways to reach your goals.

They are all around you, look a bit closer and you will find what can make you happy TODAY!!



Au Revoir!
