Interesting Weekend

This weekend looked to be full of promise and I was really looking forward to it.
Saturday myself and two girlfriends attended a Miglio (Jewellery) Pink Breakfast in aid of Breast Cancer.

It's always nice to hear these talks, because they sort of give you a wake up call. LIVE NOW. Don't wait.

I want to live my life like that and I know that I have a friend who Definitely lives her life like that. I want to be like her, and I think that is why I try and cram so much into my time. I don't want to waste a minute of it.

Saturday afternoon we were posed with the problem that due to something with the Alarm, someone had to be in the house at all times over the weekend. So today, even though I was looking forward to watching my boys take part in their first Nippers competition (albeit a fun one) it is not to be. We were also all going to attend the Cricket this afternoon as a family and dress up in our Halloween gear. This is also not to be. So M is going to take the boys and Hannah(she is so excited) and I will spend some time doing some painting of tree decorations that we bought at the Christmas Market on Friday and I will get stuck into my cross stitch again. It is looking really nice by the way and I cannot wait for it to be done so I can show it off.

So this weekend started off with a plan and the plan got relegated to the rubbish bin. It reminds me of that saying. Even the best laid plans of mice and men go array - John Steinbeck. Life is what happens while we are busy making plans. I think that one was God
