It’s been a strange few weeks to say the least, there was the VIP Disney Trip followed by the excitement of a pregnancy, the desperation of a second miscarriage (in three months) and the confusion of packing in my job and becoming ‘self employed’ (code for housewife or stay at home mum, I prefer the latter, less ironing).

There were a couple of days where it all felt a bit much, but I drew on the support of my husband, family and friends (which includes all my friends online, if I haven’t mentioned you it’s because I’ve run out of words). I’ve moaned, felt a bit sorry for myself, and wondered what the hell I was doing with my life. I’ve also remembered that I’ve been through worse, much worse, and that I’m on the path to having everything I’ve ever wanted, a happy family, a nice house, a fulfilling job/career/role, all of them are a work in progress but I guess that’s where you’re supposed to be in your mid-twenties.

The cloud is lifting now and a few sums tell me that we’re not about to go hungry. Panic job hunting is pointless. It’s time to regroup and focus on what’s important. I have important business to take care of right here, so that’s what I’ll do for now (in between blogging of course). I have a summer of gardening, family time, holidays (well one big one anyway) and who knows what travel trips

September will hopefully bring a new job that has been in the pipeline for a while.

Will the Disney 7 rise again in 2009? Probably not, but who knows for 2010…

and will that be the same year we see an addition to our family? I hope so, but I guess that’s out of our hands.

Lots of good stuff happening…

I’m off to upload some Disney videos, watch this space Craig the Barman is coming….

    Aw hon, it has been a tricky week, hasn’t it? Not remotely surprised you’ve been out of sorts – I’m feeling lousy enough and that’s just because nobody is feeding me daquiris and feeding me huge meals at regular intervals. Go easy on yourself.
    And yes, bring on Craig the barman…a legend in his own slothfulness.

    Oh…September will be here before we know it!

    Hope you enjoy a fabulous summer with your family.

    It’ll all work itself out, “What’s for ya, will not gay by ya” as my Granny said!

    Too true, and I’m back in that mindset now after a brief walk down misery lane :)

  • Lulu Campbell said:

    Glad you’re feeling a lot more positive – you have so much going for you – it’s all good and you have one thing nobody else does – that switch to mega scary face when the going gets tough….no one will mess with you Lx

    Have a fantastic night at the hotel, hope it rocks and remember all your friends in blogland are cheering you from the sidelines as you go onwards and upwards.

    But yeah that scary face, am laughing now!

  • English Mum said:

    Yup, you’ve had a tough ride alright. You’ve also accomplished a tremendous amount and should be really proud of yourself – I think I speak for all your bloggy friends when I say I’m completely in awe of your energy and enthusiasm. Here’s to the Disney 7 rising again and giving Craig the Barman a bit more abuse. Cheers! *sips tea* xx
