I Have Come To Realise......

- My laundry basket will always be like The Magic Porridge Pot in the Ladybird books.
- Knitting will ALWAYS frustrate me. My true love will always be crochet.

- No matter how much fruit I eat, there is always room for more.
- My Bears ears are tuned to only respond to key words such as 'food' and 'yes you can'. They do not recognise the words 'Can you give me a hand?' and 'can you help out more around the house?'.
- My moods are heavily affected by the weather.

- Nothing beats line dried Laundry.
- I have elements of Phoebe, Rachel AND Monica in my personality.
- I will NEVER tire of watching 'Friends'.
- I LOATHE cold, wet weather.
- My Maths isn't good.
- Nothing beats a pastry and coffee.....except warm fresh bread with a steaming hot cup of tea.

- As much a people pleaser as I am, I cannot please everybody.
- My brain isn't wired to be a calm and simple creature. I will always be a scatty mess.
- Bluey/Pink is NOT a good colour for me.
- I ADORE Clouds.

- I'll NEVER like Marzipan.
- Never go for a walk in the Winter without Wellies on. Big mistake. I NEVER learn.
- I find pale blue walls in a room to be the most soothing.

- Everyone is fighting a battle of some kind. Some people show it more than others.
- I REALLY like velvet.
- It's always the possessions you love the most that get ruined, chipped or broken.
- Kettles take way too long to boil. I'm impatient when I want a hot drink.

- I am no longer a mother to really small children. I've moved on from that stage now. It feels weird.
- My level of procrastination is ridiculous.
- I will always be a Magpie.
- 'Sparkly' will never bore me.

- I will ALWAYS be drawn to kitsch.
- My overt shyness can make me come across as aloof or unapproachable to people who don't really know me. I've learnt to be okay with that and accept it's who I am.
- Shoes and handbags do nothing for me. Give me a kitchen utensil any day.

- I'll NEVER learn to love lilac.
- I could live very happily on a secluded Island.
- I will NEVER tire of Montezuma's Orange and Geranium Chocolate. I...L-O-V-E....THE....STUFF.
- I have an unhealthy obsession with list writing. Never do anything with them, but I make them all the time.
- I am drawn to small pots. Always.

- I love accessories.

- I have taken over my house with yarn and blankets. It's all the Bears will have memories of.

- I'm truly AWFUL at housework. Life is too short to spend hours doing it when kids are young. It's pointless.
- Life goes on. Whatever happens.......life just goes on.
