What’s great about today – was the morning Sunshine and a cozy home snuggling up to my boyfriend after having a fight yesterday, realising that he means more to me than anything material that my relationship is so significant to me.

Taxis to work – i’ve loved being able to live i luxury. I dont’ consider them an expense, more a comfortable neccesity.
My animals and newborn baby rabbits opening their eyes and their cute furryness.

making phone calls on my business- managing 30 and getting one guy interested in going ahead. I need to send him some follow up literature which i’ve not done yet however, but i will. progress!

spending time with my friends- i’m working with my best friend, he’s helping me psychologically to run my business and my boyfriend is very supportive of my relationship with him. I’m lucky things are like this as he is very trusting with me.

pizza with my brother and his girlfriend – didn’t like the stuffed crust with alternative mozerella, but the company was great. time flew quickly this evening as we all watched tv together. It was good to enjoy my regular program like eastenders without the channel being turned over.

• we’ve welcome another newborn newphew into the family..
• i’ve lost few kilos bc of running everyday and stayed away from sugar.
• i’ve been busy and there are lots of work. my shop is back to life again..
• my brother and his wife brought my niece to my shop very often this week. so we still had time to play a lot, despite my busy time.
• though i am busy, i still manage to catch up with writing, reading, running, family and taking a mini break.. life is good..
• watched 3 movies last night. i didn’t have the energy to do it in the past few weeks. so i was so glad that i watched 3 last night..
• for the quiet morning during the weekend that i didn’t rush anywhere. i spent the morning reading and getting back to sleep and getting things done before i opened my shop at lunch time.
• life has been pretty hectic but it’s still been good..

• i am getting busy, more works, more new customers, after handing out hundreds of handbills. bc of high competition, we were quiet few weeks ago but we managed to win customers back and gained some new ones..
• i can run everyday without feeling hurt on my legs. legs get slimmer and i can fit into my old shorts again. kudos to all the team member of running 100 day-goal. they are supportive and inspiring.
• catched up with my friend and we talked for hours.
• got hold of an old friend from uni. it’s been 12 years that i’ve not talk to her..
• i’ve lost some kilos…
• my niece is so cute and talkative and bright and a fast learner..

Two cars this morning backed back down their driveways and out of the shoulder so I could ride by without going into the regular traffic lane. One of them was even driving a Mercedes.

Today something amazing i’ve revealed to myself is the power of music. I’m astounded at how amazing i feel listening to trance music and also rock. It’s a great emotional release and high and complements dance which i feel i should be doing daily, but aren’t right now. I’m so grateful that i’m finally relearning what musics i like and complement my spirit.

I’m thankful for my increase in financial abundance. I asked the universe and it has and is delivering great wealth and oppotunity to me, not just in terms of pounds, but in satisfaction also. I’m working in a company now where i feel free. I’m also running my business for myself, my gift for me, i’m so grateful for this.

I’m so happy about my relationship. I love my boyfriend so much. We have become much closer over the past few months, he’s started to acknowledge me more and respect my wishes. I love watching our relationship grow and flourish. Like a flower, with water it grows and when we get abit distracted, it wilts. It’s great to reconnect and bring our passion and spark back to life.

I’m enjoying this new music site that my boyfriend has designed it’s absolutely wicked!

I’m grateful i’m able to get out and about more and socialise and meet new people.
