My head may hurt, but my heart continues to soar!

What a weird week it has been ..... well thinking about it, it has been a month of change for me.
This is why my head is hurting ...... I don't normally think, I feel!!

I am truly blessed that I have a great support network around me (.... it reminds me of that advert from many many years ago, for an insurance company that said "get the protection of **** around you!!" In the advert, a castle wall appeared around you to protect from harm.) Many thanks to them ...you know who you are :) ... for their clarity and belief in me. LUV YA!

Family Growth

As I write this, I'm waiting to hear if I have become a Nan again. My step-daughter is due to give birth today, and she has had a bit of back-ache all day ..... all you mums out there will be nodding in understanding, with the words aahhhh! and aha! taking you back to bygone days when........ OOOO! OW!!! ........ Gosh! I'm soooo glad that that is all behind me now!!! :)

Next month I will have to go through it all again when my daughter-in-law produces another bundle of joy!!

It's great being a Nan ....... you've learnt to relax when in company of the future leaders of the world, ( I have high hopes for my kids' kids ....... just as I did for their parents ( actually,thinking about it, I must have done something right with 'em, as they all seem unusually well-adjusted and happy!!! Result!! :) ) ........ and can just enjoy them.

My business family seems to be growing too!

Something significant happened this morning!!! Well to me is was significant anyway :)
My mate Adam 'The Source' Smith popped round on his way to a friends' wedding. Today Ad was delivering some lapel badges to me, and they are lovely ....... small, delicate perfectly coloured onions!!!
Now, there should have been 100, but there was only 99 in the pack ..... number 100 was firmly fastened to the lapel of Ad's jacket ! :) He was sooooo proud for it to be there too!

Me, I was bursting with pride! ..... but as the day has worn on, I keep thinking of the impact that that small gesture has had on me ...... and how it is the seemingly small gestures that can rock someone's world.

WHAT SEEMINGLY SMALL GESTURE HAVE YOU DONE TODAY!!!

Soooo much has happened, and is happening around me to do with the business that I am getting much more excited than I think is good for my health. I know that my husband Simon, bless him, is wondering if I will actually burst before his very eyes!!!!

Thoughts for the day

It is not that the Englishman can't feel - it is that he is afraid to feel. E M Forster

He who determines the end, provides the means. Bernedetto Varchi

No passion so effectively robs the mind of all its power of acting and reasoning as fear. Edmund Burke
