One of my lovely clients designer Cate from Marmalade Moon has just sent me this fantastic link to this wonderful blog The Growing Life. You have to read this post on ‘quitting things and flakiness’ -The Growing Life I felt my shoulders suddenly relax three inches. The idea of getting used to my messy home and quitting all the things I don’t want to do? Bliss. I’m going to experiment with this idea this week.
What could I let go of from my ‘should’ list?
Answering all my emails straight away (or indeed ever.)
Cleaning the house (ever!)
I think I might start to enjoy this process…..
Let me know how you get on.
Firstly, thanks for all your birthday wishes.
I turned 40 on the 4th May 2008 (may the fourth be with you) and all I can say, is that I have an inkling that I’m really going to enjoy it.
I had a spectacular weekend. My girlfriends were fabulous and gave me a ‘make-over’ and then organised dinner with my closest friends in London. I got home and my husband sang me the Michael Buble song ‘You’re my everything’, then took me out on a 100 miles an hour bike ride (now that got rid of the hangover) before whisking me off to dinner.
Couldn’t understand why he woke me at 4am though and told me to get my wellies on.
Two hours later I was watching the dawn come up in a hot air balloon in one of the most magical and (strangely enough!) most peaceful rides of my life. The hot air baloonist kept saying ‘it’s all about the journey, not the destination’. At 8am, we landed in a field and had champagne.
What a way to start the decade! I have felt very loved and special.
