Tagged.

I have been tagged by Kelly of Yesterdays Glitter.

( I have no idea how to "link"!!)

Five things about myself -

1. I am in the process of growing out all the dark brown colour in my hair so that I can be completely grey and then die my hair platinum blonde.

2. I am terrified of any creature with feathers. I have had this phobia since I was born. My earliest memory was of me sitting in a pushchair under a tree with a nest and being so afraid of that nest.

3. I was a single mom for 16 years. My two girls and I had enormous fun.

4. Although I work in the corporate world, I am a dreamer at heart and I love art in any form.

5. I hate driving a car.

Rules of tagging:

I now tag Wendy Chamberlain, The Paper Daisy Company and Laughter and tears - Karens world

Two gifts

I received this lovely kitty ornament from my daughter and granddaughter in Australia. Unfortunately when it arrived here, the head and tail had broken off. We managed to repair the head but we are still figuring out how to salvage the tail. What a glamourous kitty!

This little bear I bought at a shop deep in the countryside - he is too sweet.

Therapy

I have been very fortunate and very blessed to have been given the capacity to deal with the trauma's in my life. I was one of the very, very lucky one's to have had a happy and stable childhood and whatever followed in my life, was mostly misfortune, not tragedy in comparison to what happens in the lives of other people, besides, I have learnt that we very rarely get what we planned for in life. I have reached the age and stage in my life that I believe that the best therapy is a "hobby". As mentioned in another post, the bears found me and I am endlessly grateful for that. I have recently acquired a new camera and that also gives me so much pleasure and I feel as if I do not have enough time in my day to do all the wonderful things I want to do. There is no time left for negativity and when the bad vibes threaten I try and tell myself that I cannot afford to go that route, there is simply no time available!

This gift was sent off to Karen, in Scotland. Once she has opened it I will show you the contents!
