happy birthday.....

to my ben....i hope you have had a wonderful day - i enjoyed sharing your birthday with you, for what i hope, is the first of many :-)

on another note, things are starting to look up - i seem to have moved through the funk of the last week or so (getting a period means the PMT has gone!) and i am starting to get back in touch with some of the simple but very important things in my life - things that for a little while seem to have taken a back seat (and with perfectly good reason i might add)...

so i've learned a coupla things:

- taking time out for me is actually a necessity, not an indulgence;
- the simple pleasures are the best;
- sometimes you just gotta ask for what you want rather than waiting to be asked;
- checking in with your goals to remind you why you are doing something is good;
- setting yourself new goals re-invigorates passion;
- accepting challenges that you know are gonna take you out of your comfort zone are good; and
- last but not least, having the love of someone special is absolutely the best remedy for a bad day....
