Take a risk and accept the change

I wasn't always from Glenmorgan, I was brought up in a small town 15 minutes outside of Toowoomba called Flagstone Creek. Flagstone Creek was home to me for 20 years and I could never see myself leaving.

A few week prior to my wedding my now husband Ben got offered a job here in Glenmorgan. He took me for a drive out here and when I saw the place that we were going to live in and how far away it was from my family I was scared. I didn't want to move and have to start a whole new life, meeting new people and getting use to a completely different area.

Despite all of my fears we took the job. We got married and two weeks later we made the move. I hated it out here, it was so lonely, the house way scary and I hated being so far from everyone. I spent a lot of time regretting the decision. 4 months later I was lucky enough to land a job in the local hospital as a nurse (45 minutes) away. Once I started working and started meeting local people I started to enjoy it a lot more.

I learnt so much moving out here, for one, I learnt that change can be good, its scary and daunting but all at the same time its good for the soul. Starting fresh and making a new life with my husband as soon as we got married was probably the best thing we could have done, we grew to trust one another and learnt to rely on only eachother.

I am now at the point in my life where I am content, I love where we live, I love the quietness but I also love the social aspect that such a small town such as Glenmorgan has.

My point to this blog is to accept change, take the chance and risk it all.

Do something you love

I have recently had my second child. A sweet little brother for my other son Billy. I have found that since having my second child I haven't yet been able to find the balance between being a Mum, doing the house work and book work aswell as doing the things I most enjoy. I love being outside with our animals, pottering in our large yard doing the odd fixit job.

This week I decided to wake up and do a bit of a list of goals that I wanted to achieve this week and low and behold it is actually working. Lists are starting to play a big role in my life to keep it in tact and order. I love being organised and I have found that this form of organisation always seems to work.

Yesterday I scattered three wheel barrow loads of manure onto our lawn and the joy I had doing work outside was so good. There is just something so peaceful about doing jobs outside rather than being cooped up in the house all day.

I have decided that my housework is always going to be there and that it will always wait for me so I need to enjoy the time with my boys and being outside and enjoying the peace of doing what I love. I think when you become a Mother there are some things that you need to do and taking time for yourself every now and then is key! I went from working a full time job and constantly socializing and visiting my family to being a stay at home with a little bit more restriction on where I went and what I did.

This week I challenge you to do something you love!
