Tell Me Something Good #37

Tell me a good thing from amommas view.

Simon ☺

A Momma's View

Let’s put some effort into creating a good week and kick start it with a positive thought on your Monday morning. Let’s do it! Let’s kick off the week on a positive note!

It’s easy:

• Mention something that you consider being good in the comments
• Or write a post about it on your blog (please don’t forget the pingback if you do so I don’t miss out and also share the link to it in the comments below). Something good that happened to you recently, or something good you will experience in a little while, or something good you know will happen soon. Something that makes you feel good.
  
• Share this post and invite your followers as well.

Before I share my good thing of the day with you I would say we should do a happy dance.

Let’s do another round. It feels good, don’t you think… Dance as…

I’ve given in!

At Christmas we all have a lot of things to do and people to try and make happy! This is why it gets stressful… It’s too much sometimes because those around us can often make us feel like we can’t make them happy… Nothing will.

I’ve taken to hiding in a pond… Not literally though.

I had great plans for doing some bakig and cooking to make some special things for the day, I’ve shipped my furry arse off and I think I’ve done fucking well! But at Tesco last night I saw Yule lots for £3 and something inside me broke. Fuck it I thought! I’m not making one – I’m buying one! All those around me won’t appreciate it any less or a home made one more! Then after unpacking half my shopping because of this self shop beeping thing my son insisted I use I went to the wrong till and it’s one of those ‘computer says no’ moments. But that’s a story for another time!

Why is it we spend so much time making ourselves stressed and miserable to try and make others happy when we don’t in the end. What’s the point? Why doesn’t it work?

Have a happy Christmas bloggies!

Three Random Facts about me:

1: I have a onesie bought for me a few Christmases ago, I know it’s warm but I hardly ever wear it and no I’m not modelling it.

2: I like walking outside in bear feet, but not in winter time.

3: I could sit or lay outside all night and watch the stars. To the casual observer nothing is happening, but sit and watch and you realise that it’s busy up there!
 Samantha’s questions are:

What is your favourite part of your body

I’ve never been asked this question before so I struggled to know what to answer if I’m honest. I kind of need all the bit at different times for different things. But the one bit I need most of the times is my eyes, they let me see the beauty of everything around me at help me do all the things I do. So they’re the best part!
What is your biggest turn off and turn on 

My biggest turn on has to be a woman that’s strong and knows what she wants. Turn off – whining.
Have you ever had a one night stand 

Simple this one I’m afraid. No. Nearly did once… But no.

What was the last picture you took with your phone 

Roller skate wheels. What was yours Samantha? 😉
Do you ever dance naked, if you have please tell us about it. (Funny question) 

I have with my clothes on… This isn’t something I think anyone wants embedded in their mind lol
My nominee’s:

Lennon

Darkest Fairytale

Magnolia Rouge

Ocean

What Sandra Thinks

Shehannemoore

Acire

Michelle Marie

I haven’t put up 20 nominee’s as doing this on my tablet is ball breaking! I know some of you likely don’t do awards but consider it a little Christmas gift if you don’t and something to take with the kindness it was given 😀

My five questions:

1. What was the last picture you took (I liked that one)?

2. What was the last piece of music you bought?

3. What was the last thing you did or place you went that made you think ‘wow’ and why?

4. What is your greatest hope this Christmas?

5. What’s the wildest works party you’ve been to and what happened?

I’ve tried to keep this a little spicy in Samantha’s spirit but gone back more to my safe ground lol. I hope you can all join in. If not it’s ok, just consider this award as a token gift.

Cassini made it’s closest pass yet to Pandora – one of Saturn’s moons. There’s not much in the way of a box of mysteries here but it’s made for an interesting close look at moon that we know little about.

NASA – Mimas and rings of Saturn

 

Perspective is always a wonderful illusion, here it looks like Mimas is about to crash into the rings of Saturn, in reality it’s 28,000 miles away. The relationship between the rings and Saturn’s moons is pretty amazing, more on that in this link:

Life the universe and aging…

This morning I wok up and remembered one thing, that was that I’m no longer 21 but in fact…

Now for those of you that know me well and my love of Hitchhikers, this number has a great deal of significance in the universe. Mostly it means…

Which is good considering my now advancing years. So I didn’t I picked up my towel and trotted off to work on what is a normal day!

I should have planned ahead more but come along to my birthday blog party, come and find some birthday cheer and fattening food and indulge yourselves! All are welcome and make sure you come and say hi!

Monday Motivations

Have a look at Esther Monday motivations post and my contribution this week.

Thanks to Esther for running this!

Simon 🙂

Last week’s Monday Motivations set you a Christmas theme. So, as the big day is almost upon us, I’ll stick with the seasonal theme. But, as I’m feeling generous, I’ll give you three new themes to choose from:

• The Gift
• Magic
• Snow

I’d love to see what where your creative minds take you, so get writing! Any format is accepted.

Last week’s challenge was to write a story or poem on the theme Christmas Eve.
Here are your delightful offerings:

EDC Writing‘s piece will captivate you:

“He wasn’t there, at least I don’t think so a moment ago?” she half thinks, half speaks.

“Who?” little sister says, answering her own question looking from the ‘pay here’ queue to see what kind of man has got big sister’s attention.

He is there alright, in every sense, lean, just under six foot, curly close cut hair, caressing silk, eyes dancing…

Stay you.

Great post from Claudia….

Simon 🙂

Claudia Hernandez

You’re cool. Yes, you are even if you or your classmates or family think you are not. You are so cool that you are even thinking about how cool you are in the scale between not cool and coolest. 

You feel for others. Even when you have your own problems consuming you, you are always there to listen to others because you feel their suffer, their sorrow, their despair. 

You overdose yourself with overthinking. You could be thinking about your first love and still question every angle of what you did wrong and convince yourself the break up was your fault. 

You read books and articles about life even when your friends tell you that there is no time for reading when you’ve got lots of parties and drama to deal with. You don’t care though, so you roll your eyes, stay home and read, and then you read some…

Monday Motivations – Flashback

Esther’s theme for his weeks Monday Motivations is flashbacks and this gave me a world off opportunities… But I found it had to pick a good one. This is what I came up with:

Flashback

Sitting on the beach on a warm Autumn day, the sun setting with hues of purple, orange and red. The day dying as the year too draws to it’s own end.

With eyes closed thoughts wash over him like waves on the beach.

Thoughts of years past, of people, places things that until now we’re long forgotten.

Images vivid in his mind, some bringing a smile, others a tear.

Lost in the sea thoughts he realised that some were flashbacks to times long ago, others were flash forwards, dreams of a life maybe to come. Despite his years he knew that as long as he could dream he could still live and gather more images, more flashbacks to re-live.
