Lady Chuckles

Reading a marvellous feel-good book
Being comforted and thereby feeling pampered
Seeing my special someone smile
Snuggly times
All the wonderful flowers blooming in my garden


I had a PERFECT weekend. The best ever! I feel so happy

- LARP event I helped run at the weekend went absolutely amazingly.
- Awesome friend drove around the English midlands with me at 8 PM looking for somewhere that sells gaffa tape, which it's IMPOSSIBLE to run a LARP event without.
- Same awesome friend drove me and the other half not just to the ferry but all the way home, which was out of his way
- I am being Mad Crazy Organised at sorting out post-event stuff, from laundry to plot fallout
- I went to the dentist and apparently my teeth are fine.

Had a SHOCKER of a weekend.. so glad its over!! Right, lets make a list!

1) My family. They mean everything to me. Its so tough being at the opposite side of the world, yet this weekend it has shown me that they are closer than i think...

2) Good friends. Gosh, im a lucky girl.

3) Work. As much as i hate it at times, it means i have an income. And food on the table, and gym membership, and a car, and clothes and the ability to travel.

4) My voice. I HAVE to start making the most of it before its too late!

5) Im alive and happy!! So many people around the world are going through unimaginable heartbreak right now, and im not. <- This.

I posted one '5-things' in June of this year, right here. Here goes my current:

1) Family are all still Happy & Healthy
2) On 9th July I started my Cycling Training Log here on boards, and since then I have a 70km Ring of North Kerry and a 100km Sean Kelly Tour of Waterford cycle COMPLETE! Delighted with my progress with my new sport!
3) Friends: Auld & New
4) I like that I see the nice-side to people, even when they lie and back-stab me. I may not trust them, but at least I can still see at least one nice aspect to them.
5) I am still an optimist at heart, eventhough their are times when that is tested full-on.
