Life Is Good

Well, not entirely, but this is the positive blog :P

The week has been challenging. At times it's been frustrating and at others it's been down right tough.

I've learnt a lot though.

I've learnt that nomatter what some people try to do, your friends stick by you. They see through others' weaknesses and don't let them cloud their judgement of you. They can distinguish between fact and lies, even when the lies are abundant.

So, despite things being extremely tough atm, the title of this post stands.

(I lost my hard drive this week, so need to reload some pics. The one of Kara above just makes me smile. 2. more . sleeps.)

Just Amazing to Watch.

This video is floating around on Facebook at the moment and is a couple of years old but i think it's just beautiful. So inspirational and touching. Enjoy.

25 Random Things....

Well, it's been awfully hot here this week.... today was the 5th day over 40 degrees and last night the first to go under 30. I've been getting nothing done ~ it's just been too hot.

I was reading Sue's blog tonight and her recent post is 25 random things about her. I love reading posts like that so thought I'd follow her lead. It was harder than I thought but that may be due to sleep deprivation :)

I hope everybody had a great weekend. xx
