Good news and bad news!!
Having a shit time at work.. I have decided I hate my job and I really can’t see myself working in this industry for long. I don’t dislike my boss or my company (in fact, my boss is the best boss I have ever had) but the job itself is grinding me down.
Business is becoming tougher and tougher. My team is under tremendous amount of pressure to get work done correctly and quickly, zero tolerance when it comes to making mistakes.. the amount of responsibilities is unreal.
I have been in this industry for 6 years now.. 2 years as a product developer, 1 year in sales and 3 years as a merchandiser, I have gained nothing except lots of grey hair!! I think I have enough of it already!
My yoga instructor kept talking about positive thinking last night, she suggested that anything is possible when you have a positive attitude, so perhaps if I keep daydreaming about winning the lottery it might actually become reality?!
On a happier note…
I can finally make it official..
Meet my future nephew or niece
I will be antie Josephine by next Easter!! Altho this new title making me sound old but I’m very happy for Sally and Albert!! First baby for both side of the family (beat me to it you cow!!)
I must admit I was a little sad after I’ve found out my twin sister is pregnant. Don’t take me wrong I was over the moon with the news.. but we are twins and I have got used to the fact that we have been through different stages of our lives at the same pace.. but now she has a nice big house, a husband, AIBO dog Bailey, her own business.. and now a baby.. what do I have? nothing! (again, except grey hair?!)
I know I was being silly and come to think about it, at least I still have the freedom.. I hope she’s looking forward to many sleepless night!! hee hee..

And you have me!
Seriously, you’re a wonderful person, and I think you have a lot going for you - all those things you desire will come later on in life - its just not your time at the moment to have those things because you have other far more wonderful things going for you - such as the freedom to travel across this amazing planet and to enjoy all the miracles that it can offer you.
And when you’ve finished sampling those delights, you can start the next phase in your life - you can settle down and have lots of wonderful babies who when they grown up, will bully my children silly!
After spending half my adult life taking my mother to the hospital, you realise that your health is the more important thing in the world, and you’re the fittest person I know! You look fantastic in EVERYTHING you wear, and you have a smile which melts my heart. And no one vomits like you do!
So chin up kid
