Missing, Longing, Yearning

When someone goes away for a while you realise how much they partake in your life, this is an amazing thing.

There are many rooms in one persons life filled with many different things.

With a person missing from one of your rooms, it has been quietened like the volume button has been turned down. Its a little bit empty and its noticeable. The remaining room occupants cant fill the space left, as its reserved waiting for the person to return.

Your heart or head will be longing for them to come back, a daily count down can heighten your yearning for their return. A strange feeling indeed.



When your room is back to capacity, the volume returns and your world resumes its routine.

I Love a Rainy Night

Showers washed
All my cares away
I wake up to a sunny day
'Cos I love a rainy night
Yeah, I love a rainy night
Well, I love a rainy night
I love a rainy night
Well, I love a rainy night
You can see it in my eyes
Yeah, I love a rainy night
Well, it makes me high
Ooh, I love a rainy night
You know I do, yeah, yeah
I love a rainy night

If theres one thing rain can do, It's wash away your cares. It can take away your worries and make you feel good again, you just have to let it.
I love standing in the rain and letting it soak my clothes and skin I feel like Ive been cleansed inside and out. I feel alive.


Feel the massage of the droplets fall on your head and hair is relaxing and yet invigourating.

Water running down your face, off your nose and chin, making your eyelashes heavy is wonderful.

Jumping in puddles like your a kid again, then we're are all still kids really, we just have to let them out occassionally.

Its raining at the moment think its time for a kid moment. How about you? .... see ya.

The Sound of One Hand Clapping

Silence is golden, Silence is beautiful.. well for me silence is boring.

Silence means your alone, nil, nada, uno etc. My house is empty with out sound. don't get me wrong I like to have alone time but only for a little while. I admit, I love the sound of my kids even if they are screaming at each other and stomping around on wooden floor boards. At these times our home is alive.

My son has been away for the last week and a half as isn't due back for another 4 days. His noise and presence has been missed. Its something that is very noticeable and we have all commented on. Shock horror even his sisters miss him....ssshhhh don't say that too loud.

Sound helps makes a house a home. It brings people together in so many different ways. Laughter, yelling, talking, giggles they are part of what makes a home and the people who reside in it.

My house is silent this morning and its just a house. One more person will bring it back to home status, I'm just waiting for them to arrive....

Bucket Lists

Something my girls and some friends have and continue to add to almost daily, yet I struggle to decide where to start my list.

Not because I don't have anything to add, there are many things I would like to do but (that sometimes magically word) I'm the kind of person who thinks of something to add and then before the ink dries I'm doing or organising to do it.
Christmas and Birthdays are very hard on my family too..hehehe.


For example sitting at home the other night I realised I had taken a week off work to go to the Melbourne cup with a couple of friends in my home town in QLD, so why not go to the cup in Melbourne. After a quick couple of calls to the girls and a check on the Internet we are now flying down for 4 days to go to THE CUP..so that's removed from the list.


Every ones bucket list is different and it speaks volumes about who we are as people. Thinking outside our comfort zones can produce the best bucket lists without having to do insanely wild things. Something I'm not into, insanely wild that is.


Next thing for the list, travel to the Birdsville races in 2013, yet again we've already started to organise that ....sigh.
