Eat, Pray, Love
If you haven't read it....read it
the book is called, Eat, Pray, Love and it's by Elizabeth Gilbert.....and it's a must read....
Elizabeth goes from a very bad divorce...to Italy to eat her body well...then to India to pray her soul well...then to Indonesia to love herself back to life!!!
I have to say that i have loved this book enormously....the part where she was in India to learn to find God...was an eye opener to me.....
We are "God", or "Divine" or the "Goddess" whatever you wish to call it....
To find "God"...is to love yourself warts and all....
To find "God" is to love yourself unconditionally.....
To find "God" is to let love rule your heart....
To find "God" is to let love rule your heart and rule your head......
Each day i am trying to say that i love myself...
Each day i look at the life i have and try to give thanks...
Each day i look at my kids and tell them that i love them....
Each day i look at my hubby and give thanks for the wonderful man that he is...
Each day i will give thanks that i have all that i need to live..and then more...
Each day i will give thanks for the wonderful friends that i have in my life....
Each day i will give thanks for the wonderful family i have both here in Australia and England....
Each day i will give thanks to be alive....
Blessed Be

All well
I am back in the land of the living....kind of...
My operation to fix the downstairs pumping went well..now I'm just very sore and tired...
I have slept most of today and have only just gotten up @ 4pm....criminal!!!!
Have been told that i cant lift anything over a kilo for the next 6 weeks...what that!!! how may i ask do you manage that one!!!
Was told even a full kettle of water is over a kilo...
But will take all the advice given as my dear sister said..."you don't want to go back to get it re-fixed"
no way....bad enough first time round!!!
So will be coming up with new and novel ideas on how to do things...like the
washing....leave for the washing fairies!!!
Shopping....leave it for shopping fairy (hubby)
vacuuming....leave it for the kids!! yes that's right they both love to use the swivel sweeper...so let them i say!!!
