I got my Young Living Essential Oils starter kit on the 28th (Distributor Id: 1495793). I’m So excited to start and share my journey to natural better health.10584016_1458230544432307_264373312076796027_n

My Journey with the Oils so Far:

Peace n Calming  Peace & Calming:

I have a major problem with “switching off” at night and find that this is helping 🙂 I’ve used this oil the last three nights when going to bed and have found that I’ve dropped off to sleep faster and while laying there waiting for sleepy land I’ve felt a lot more relaxed.

As some of you might know I’m about to partake in the 12WBT challenge to motivate myself to get active again and lose the extra pudge. At the same time I’m starting my journey with oils to find natural remedies (focusing on Pain, Depression and Anxiety) and create a happy and healthier home for myself and my family. I struggle with pain and can at times find myself eating Panadeine Forte like tic tacs, so Yes a major life overhaul is due.

So I’ll keep you posted on how I go and what I find.

I really would like my chin back!

So I have decided to take on Michelle Bridges 12 week body challenge.
To get to my ideal body weight + BMI I need to lose 25 kilos.
When I was pregnant and then breastfeeding with my son I lost ten kilos just from eating better. I was being a good girl and eating well because I was paranoid as what went through me went into him and I didn’t want to do anything to hurt him.
After going back to work I’ve put it all the weight back on plus some more. Now I’m not aiming to be model thin, it’s not my thing, I like a woman to have curve.  I’m aiming to be able to walk up the stairs at work without losing my breath lol. I want more energy. I want to be happy. I want to be healthy. I used to love walking, but now even that seems too hard. I’m hoping by signing up to this challenge that It’ll be able to give me the kick start I need to be motivated and get back on the wagon!!!

Riley and Me

Motherhood: The hardest yet most rewarding job ever!

Twelve months on and this little man keeps making me happier than I’ve ever been and more in love with him (even when he is chucking a tantrum like he is now while i’m trying to write this).

Thursday Recap (2)

/ Absidity Art / Leave a comment

Friday 11th was the last day of dress up week at Riley’s Daycare so I sent him dressed up as a Raccoon again 🙂 Soooo Cute!!! And I went and had my eyes tested, nothing eventful happened there.image

Saturday’s are housework day, so when that was done we went to a friend’s house for a BBQ dinner, where Riley had fun playing with another little boy, it was great they ran around and wore each other out.

Sunday is my funday! I pretty much stuffed around all day, drew some stickmen, played with riley, read a book and then watched Masterchef.

It’s just another Manic Monday; Worked, did some stickman drawing and then watched Masterchef.

The dreaded Tuesday, my first day back at TAFE in eight years. I was freaking out, over whelmed, and most of all missing time with my little man.

Wednesday – hump day – half way there day; Worked, did some stickman drawing and then watched Masterchef.

Then we come to today Thursday 17th, Yay! Riley’s swimming lesson day. We used to go to swimming on Tuesdays but as I am back working Tuesdays swimming had to be moved, hence we had a new teacher, new place in the pool and new classmates. Riley really did not cope with so many changes all at once. Normally Riley loves his swimming lessons, but today he was very clingy and even had a cry – poor bubba, but he will get used to the changes.

I’ve got TAFE again tonight – I also need to get used to the changes 😐

Martha : Friday Fictioneers 100 word story challenge

/ Absidity Art / 10 Comments

Martha stared up at the sky with hungry eyes. She had never in all her eighty three years seen a drought so bad.

Dark clouds started to roll in and cover the painfully bright sky. It was as if the gods had finally answered her prayers.

The healing rain flowed down revitalising Martha and filling her with such joy that she lifted up her petticoat and began to prance around in the street like a woman of much less years.

The rain purged the burnt land as it refilled the reservoirs and the townsfolk’s hearts, giving them the strength to start again.

So I’m connecting – I’m Facebooking, Tweeting, Goodreading and even getting all up in those Google+ Circles (see connect with me page for links to all my social media sites) and as most of you probably know already I recently added YouTube and Instagram to all that *ME* in the and on the World Wide Web.

Yeaaaaah and when was the last time I got to do a decent post on my BLOG Ummmmm Damn You Social Media for taking up all my time!!

I’ve forgotten my point – Damn short attention span.

Oh yeah that’s my POINT!

I spend too much time “connecting” I haven’t written much in months.

But anyways at least i’ve found some sort of direction for my YouTube channel – yeah thats kind of worth it – Each Thursday I’m going to attempt to do a “diary type” 60 second (or there abouts) video recap of my week and on the first Sunday of each month I’m going to record one of my Poems. YAYYYYYY!!!!!

So here is my first Thursday Ramble, it’s rather rough as i just slapped it all together to see if it’s something i could work with in the future 🙂 enjoy :-).

Mary: Friday Fictioneers 100 word story challenge

/ Absidity Art / 6 Comments

Mary could feel the tears prickling at the corner of her eyes.

Her once magnificent family home was in ruins.

As she gingerly walked through what was left of the house it was evident by the smell that there had been squatters living there at some stage.

After her father’s bankruptcy years before, Mary had vowed that she would one day get her Family’s heritage back.

After twenty years she now had just managed to reacquire the once grand property.

Mary was determined; that what this place once was with her tender love and care it would be again.

My First Ever YouTube Video

/ Absidity Art / 1 Comment

The greatest prison people live in is the fear of what other people think.

With that in mind, I am going to suck it up and just post this video!

Arms Around Me

I want to run and hide
Down deep inside
How happy I would be
You no longer poisoning my mind
Please set my soul free
I’d no longer need to lie
Without your arms around me
But I’m frozen in pain
Shame won’t let me leave
The failure I’ve become
Is unbecoming to me
You no longer by my side
I’d set my soul free
But with you till I die
I told you I would be
So here still I lie
With your arms around me
I feel the need to cry
But the tears won’t leave me
While you wallow in sorrow and self-pity
Why don’t you just leave me?
All the past tears we’ve cried
With your arms around me
I’m trying to figure out why
And if I should leave
But with you till I die
I told you I would be
So here still I lie
With your arms around me
