Things I Know - Brought to us by Yay for Home...

Yay it's Friday and time for Things I know!! I missed it last week and am glad to be back!!

This week I know:

* At this moment I am supposed to be showered, getting dressed, jumping in the car and meeting my hubby at a friends place to pick him up and get some shopping done as I will be car-less from 1pm

* The above is less important than making sure I don't miss my Things I know post this week..... not sure Woodi will agree :o)

* Waking up one morning and finding wrinkles have crept in and must be dealt with IMMEDIATELY has lead to the realisation that just cleansing morning and night isn't enough.....

* The above has also led to numerous deliveries from Mr Postman and a new morning and night regime`

* It is difficult getting used to putting effort into your own appearance when all your time goes into your kids and a beauty regime` was thought to be something for models, celebrities and older (yes I'm in denial about my aging) women.

* News from my Brother in QLD has me wanting to move back..... like yesterday!

So what do you know today..... other than if I don't move my butt I'm going to have one crank hubby on my hands??

I Loved Shae's Things I know - My Mentally Sexy husband Edition you really should go have a read and link up what you know :o)

This week I know:

* This week has been so huge, including today that I almost thought I wouldn't get to attend one of my fave bloggy link-ups! But I'm here :o)

* This beautiful weather has been such a lovely sneak preview of Spring , my kids and I are loving it!! I know some of you have yet to experience this warmer change, and I hope it is headed your way real soon!

* A Funeral and the Celebration of a life lived and lost is a sad but amazing way to find some much needed perspective on life. I am grateful for the wisdom I took away from my Uncles Funeral this week.

* At times it feels as a Mum you can never win or keep everyone happy, but truthfully it doesn't take much to make a child smile and feel loved & special. The way my kiddies faces light up when I arrive to volunteer or watch them perform at their school makes my heart sing. I am amazed how one simple act from me can hold so much pride and happiness from them.

* It also doesn't take much to make another child happy or feel special. This week helping out the Kindy's at the Athletics Carnival was such an amazing experience. I know that not all Mums and Dads have the leisure of making it to these events and wish they could, and I know how hard it can be on a kid to not have them there. It didn't take much to extend myself to these kids, to cheer them on, give them Hi-5's and even a hug when they needed it. Seeing these little cuties having a go and looking over to see if I'm watching, and then watching their faces glow when they saw my smiles and encouragement filled my heart with so much warmth. I definitely took away much more than I gave :o)

* It is amazing how much love, joy and happiness can fill your life when you remove the negativity and the people who weigh you down. Everyone deserves to be loved, treated with respect and without judgement, and we shouldn't be made to feel guilty for wanting to be treated so. Many doors are waiting to be opened, and I am enjoying those that are opening in my life. I truly am surrounded by wonderful people and opportunities :o)

I love hearing what you all know, Have a wonderful weekend xox

Things I Know - brought to us by Yay for Home... Thanks to Daisy,Roo and Two :o)

This week I know:

* I have a pretty new blog and haven't been able to blog on it yet (because of me - not the blog), and this is pretty exciting!

* I am so in love with the work of April at A Mommy's Blog Design Studio and my blog design :o)

* Daisy is so lucky to have been bestowed the honor of hosting 'Things I know", and it was an awesome choice by Shae :o)

* I am loving hearing about Blogopolis and seeing the photos on Instagram, it makes me wanna go someday when my blog and I grow up ;o)

* Parent teacher Interviews aren't scary or intimidating

* Hearing " I wish I had a whole classroom of Moo's & Boo's" at the above, made this Mumma get all teary.

* I am so unbelievably proud of my amazing daughters, and have been shown I need to have more faith in my parenting and the decisions I make for my girls

* I am loving the weather today and hope this is the start of more sunny days to come :o)

What do you know this fine Friday?

It's here, it's here!! It's Friday!! And that means..... time to link up with Yay for Home for Things I know!! And then you need to go Flog it over at Where's My Glow for FYBF!!

This is what I know this week..... Moodi Mumma warning, not so upbeat and positive today!!

* I am soooo friggin glad it's Friday!!

* Dogwatch + Menstration + No carbs (stinkin diet) = Very Moodi Mumma!!!!

* I am not sure I would have made it through one more sleep deprived night of dogwatch, I may have had to be institutionalized!! 

* Having your Hubby home and sleeping beside you is a blessing for so many reasons... the main one right now being I will not have to share my bed with 3 little people tonight!!

* Running on empty and trying to be sympathetic to Loo and her whining today is not really working out for me!

* I am counting down until Loo's nap time so I can go have one myself.....zzzz

Happy Friday!!

My favourite day of the week is here and you know what that means it's time to link up to Yay for home's Things I Know and Flog Ya Blog with Glowless :o)

Thing I know this week:

* Making positive changes in your life isn't easy but is well worth the pain and effort!!

* I am stronger than even I thought was possible :o)

* With the support of loved ones you can do just about anything :o)

* Love and support from people you have never met before is a very wonderful and powerful thing!!

* I'm surprisingly sad the school holidays are coming to an end.....

* I am actually excited to weigh myself tomorrow..... words I thought I'd never say :o)

What do you know this week?

Things I Know - Brought to us by Yay for Home...

I know:

* Bunking all my girls together in one room, removing all toys and putting them into a "toy room" has been a huge success and has helped to restore some serenity to our home and sanity to me!

* Owning our own home seems like a whole life time away and being addicted to all these home renovation and interior design shows is just torture!!

* My Gypsy blood has been boiling and I have once again been dreaming of far away places, country towns and being closer to my QLD family.

* I have noticed the above seems to occur during or just after a bout of the blues.

* Every time I think I couldn't possibly love Woodi any more than I do, my heart and our relationship proves me wrong - and I like it <3

What do you know? Link up with Yay for home and let us know :)

Things I Know - Brought to us by Yay for Home...

* Bad things don't only happen in 3's

* Watching your loved ones when the are sick and suffering is horrible

* Someone is watching over me and my little family - renewing the car insurance just days before Woodi has a car crash, Woodi not being injured in that crash and not injuring anyone else!

* Whilst there is no good time for these types of things to happen, there are times that are far worse than others - that would be this week

* I have been very blessed with emotional support from my husband Woodi, my bestie MummyMax and my online community xoxo

* I'm loooking forward to a much better week

Things I Know

* The cost of Grocery shopping when planning to have dinner guests is HUGE.... but is far cheaper than going out to dinner or ordering in.

* It's lovely having dinner guests and getting the opportunity to try new recipes and put on a yummy spread ~ my family are picky eaters and putting out a spread for us would be wasted!

* I don't hang my washing on the line half as often as I should, but I feel so good when I do :o)

* 'Home Readers' are a great way to spend one on one time with my twins and make me so proud of each of their learning achievements

* It's not a great idea to blog while waiting for the oil to heat up in the fryer or for the kettle to boil, your cuppa to cool down etc, etc.... way too distracting!!

* As good as I am becoming at dealing with the 3 shift roster and the week of Dogwatch, I cannot wait for this week to be over! Bring on Friday!!

Things I Know - Brought to us by Yay for Home...Thanks to Kate says stuff :o)

Things I know this week:

* I have Cervical Stemnosis and am in a fair amount of pain & need to have a mini op on Wednesday

* I have retreated into my own little world this week and have neglected blogger, Facebook & Twitter - most likely because of the above.

* I'm fortunate my hubby could have a couple of days off work to take care of me and the kiddies.

* My kiddies are loving and caring and are very sweet when they see their Mumma crying or upset <3 <3 <3

* You have to be very careful with the people you introduce your family to.... some people have weird stalker tendencies :os

* I have been struck by a huge dose of restlessness..... need to put my finger on why??

* I want soooo many lovely and wonderful things but have to remember that I am very blessed to have the wonderful things that many others don't have.

Link up and share what you know this week!

I am participating in Yay for Home's Link in of.... Things I know!!

Things I know this week:

* It is almost a certainty that as my besties family recover from an illness my little family will fall ill with one - meaning we don't see each other for several weeks :(

* I am very, very lucky to have a Hubby as sweet and supportive as Woodi!

* I never want to forget or take for granted the above statement!!

* Woodi and I are to have yet another Anniversary with no money to do something nice together or splurge on gifts.... but after 6 years we are still together <3

* Mumma having to leave her canteen duties because she is not well, will result in crying and very upset girls when they get home :o(

* One cream lamington is NEVER enough....

* I need to get my camera out and start taking more photos of my family

* No matter how much I doubt and question my parenting abilities, there will always be something that shows me just how good I'm doing and how so much worse it could be.

I have just discovered Yay for Home's  Things I Know Link-in, and all though I may not know much, am tempted to join!

So here is what I know this week:

* I Know there are some amazing blogs out there & I would love mine to be better and to be able to design mine to suit me perfectly.

* I Know that whilst I am getting better at coping with Hubby's shift work and double shifts where we don't see him for days at a time.... there will always be a breaking point. Today it was 4.10pm!

* I Know that whilst Hubby is at work of a night, I'm lucky to have my kids asleep by 9pm even if they are in bed by 7pm!

* I Know that my children showing me the new skills they've learnt at school will never cease to blow my mind.

* I Know that I will always think my children are extra smart, extra special, extra wonderful..... Just coz :o)

* I Know that whilst Loo may be able to last 2-3 hours at school in undies with no accidents, it is unlikely the same will happen at home... as I have also come to know it is not unusual for Loo to request undies, only to poo in them moments later.

* I Know that when I send Loo to care on Monday, more often than not by Wednesday she is sick followed by  Moo & Boo on Thursday & Hubby and I by Friday.... Joy!

* I Know Moo & Boo love having me volunteer at their school and I enjoy doing it for them... even if I'm not used to being on my feet most of the day and my feet and back are killing!!

* I know our dog snores as loud, if not LOUDER than my hubby.... no mean feet!
