To my dear 2 pity readers....ok so here it is, I think I have figured out why this blogging thing can be so good. VENTING. Since half the things that I want to talk about are no more exciting than watching paint dry, blogging is a remedy for the things i just need to get out but KNOW that when Stanford gets home the only response I'll get is glassed over eyes or a "what is she going on about" stare. So vent no. 1 for today is that my house seriously needs a detox. I need to purge my poor home of the unnecessesaries of life..... I was thinking of adding before and after pics of certain areas of my house that need an internal cleansing but then thought better of it because you would probably think I was a slob.
So we just got back from our amazing South Africa trip which I will definately post more about in the coming days along with the incredible images we took whilst there, i know, i know dont all log on at once my blogs will be here for the eternities for your entertainment and perusal :P. While there I purchased some awesome African home wares, of which i did some pretty impressive bargaining, if I do say so myself. Once unpacked I walked around my house and thought what lucky spot will get to wear and display these gorgeous authentic African gifts with pride..... then realised there was not even one spot that was even remotely do-able!? How have I ended up with as much 'stuff' as I have??? how do I get rid of it? I dont think i am ready for a garage sale just yet, does that make me a hoarder?? maybe so but I plan doing a "winter-spring clean" in the coming days. Wish me luck :)
On a more positive note, this morning Carter boy pointed to me and said 'mama' then smacked his lips together and waited for a kiss, my whole body absoloutely melted, right at that moment I would've given him anything he wanted from me ....note to self - ok to melt, not ok that time is going way too fast.:(
