Learning every day

There are days when I come to this and wonder what I’m going to write about. I feel as though little has happened and I haven’t achieved very much. Today has been one of those days.

However this is not entirely true. There are things that I have done and things that I have learnt about myself. I think that understanding oneself is extremely important in being able to feel positive about oneself and enjoy life. If nothing else I hope that my children are happy and that they are able to enjoy themselves.

Today was mindfulness. I so look forward to these sessions. I find that I take so much from them. Interestingly I also find that there are ideas and practices that we have covered that I have missed, or have passed me by. Today I found that there were things from the last session that I had completely forgotten,they felt as though they were a new concept! Today we had to reflect on positives in relation to questions that we were given. I always find these things difficult. Today I was reminded that I am organised. I often forget this. I think that my husband and I have achieved quite a lot since moving to France and my organisation skills have probably proven to be invaluable in developing our new life.

On another couple of notes: the cat bed is now a giant puzzle and I am starting on putting it together. I am considering doing it slightly differently to the pattern in order to add strength to the structure. Florence and Zebulon are feeling a little sorry for themselves and I am feeling a little guilty. They were both neutered today. I am sure they will be back to their bouncy selves very soon. But for today they are miserable and I’m not allowed near them.
