My mom

Praise the Lord!

After 6 weeks of recovery, my mom went for a check-up today and the Doctor said she is doing really well and all her symptoms she's been having are all normal after major surgery and has extended her recovery time! The mass was benign which is such a relief. Her anemia is under control and is stable which is positive.

Today was a chaotic day so the good news was very welcome! Prayers as she continues to get stronger and fully recover will be greatly appreciated.

Banana's

So today, I decided to eat a jungle oats bar that was banana flavoured. I don't bananas as they always make me feel nauseous and unwell, but I thought this would be different....well turns out it wasn't! So i decided to do some research and it looks like I possibly have a food allergy to banana's!! They say people who are allergic to pollen are prone to banana allergies.

So all I can say is THANK YOU body for making me feel like shit!!

For future reference, if anyone is reading this don't ever let me eat or give me anything banana flavoured!!

On a positive note, I had a lovely and relaxing half term and am ready for the next 5 weeks until holidays!! My aunt and uncle always look after me so well, and feed me far 2 much, but I love them loads and am so blessed to have them as part of my family!

Have a supercalifragilisticexpialidocious week =D xxx

Frustration

Today we had our annual Inter-house gala. As usual Doz did a fantastic job of organising everything down to the tee. 

It always amazes me that little kids can get an instruction right but older ones cant?! I have never been able to understand that concept and today proved no different! The older I get (and I'm not THAT old) the more I find that kids seem to be loosing the common sense gene or concept....they have NONE! Actually come to think of it I'm finding that some adults also missed out! It boggles my mind.

I often find myself very frustrated at the lack of commitment and responsibility. I often get instant high blood pressure and see red and hit a rage!I get so full of anger and hatred that I take out on the wrong people. Today made me realise that if you don't control yourself and direct that anger to the right people or diffuse it, it just makes you upset, cos the others sure don't give a shit!so at the end of the day, you're the one that gets put in a bad mood, you're the one who gets upset and no one else cares...so what's the freaking point??

SO today's lesson is: Try diffuse a potentially frustrating situation before it explodes and stay in control of yourself!

ps. my legs go so sunburnt its not even funny :( but hey at least i got some sort of tan...now my legs wont be see through anymore :D

Hope you guys had a terrific Tuesday

Back to the life of blogging

So I've been out of action for quite a while now and have decided to get back in the swing of things...

A quick update of what I've been doing:

I completed my PGCE ECD and am working at Woodridge Prep in the Eastern Cape. I am really enjoying life here in the bundus and am so blessed to work with a wonderful, supportive staff. I have made some new friends which is always a good thing ;)

My great gran passed away on the 29th Jan 2013 which was a huge knock for me as we were really close. I miss her every single day and wish i had more time with her

My mom had major abdominal surgery this last December holiday to remove a massive mass weighing over 6 kgs!! was a very stressful time for us as a family, but she is well on the road to recovery, Praise the Lord!

I am writing with the soothing sounds of rain drops on my roof and a slight but lovely chill in the air...its been a scorcher of a summer here!

ok well thats all for now, take it easy xxx
