Sometimes the smallest acts of kindness can really warm your heart…
This collage from Salama is just a little reminder of reasons to smile when the world gives you nothing but heartache:

Random things that make me smile
I’m feeling rather under the weather so decided to look on the bright side of life and list ten extremely simple things that make me smile…

| I love this scarf, I wear it with everything…even have it on today |
1. Floss (I think flossing rocks,that might make me seem weird, but I hate having something stuck in my teeth so I love flossing.)
2. My diffuser (because now I can have curls without having to walk around with wet hair for half the day)
3. The fact that my curls are coming back, it’s not completely back, but it’s looking way less wet chicken like (LOVE THAT!)
4. Messages from friends I have not spoken to in ages.
5. Burfi – my most fav treat (Barfi, sometimes burfi or burfee is a sweet confection from the Indian subcontinent.)
6. Friends who make me laugh, I have some FUNNY FRIENDS, ppl (some funny-haha, some funny-strange)
7. A work day that ends up being wayyy more relaxing than planned
8. Rob and I both playing games on our laptops while snuggling on the fold out couch (do that for an hour most nights, just to unwind)
9. Nail polish, I have tons of the stuff and love how it changes a look instantly
10. Blogging, I never thought I’d enjoy it this much, but the feed back and emails from followers and readers is just too cool to ignore, it is also great to log on and see how many people have visited, it makes me feel part of something bigger… THANKS GUYS 🙂
Say cheese
So yesterday my niece, Kameron (2 going on 3), snuggles up to me and asks me to smile with her so she can take a picture of us, how can you refuse such a cute request?
Here is the result of our “photo session”
think happy thoughts
So today I feel like death, seriously uncool people!!! I feel like those ads, where the guy screams “headache, pain, fever….”
But because I have so much to get through today, I can’t dwell on feeling like I’ve been scraped off a giants foot and am going for happy thoughts . . .
Namely two of my “lil angels” who I got to hang out with this weekend: Kammy and Tay
 |
| Friday after work we hung out with Rob’s brother’s baby, Kameron, she’s the cutest/busiest little thing, love her to bits. I think she forgets she’s still months away from her third birthday because she acts way older, too cute. |
 |
| On Saturday I hung out with Taylor, she’s the funniest 2 year old I know, she is also a fashionista who notices things like the handbag on a mannequin, I kid you not. |
HEHE, I already feel better 🙂
GOOD MONDAY ALL
To all the men I love :)
 |
| daddy’s little girl |
 |
My mom often jokingly says that the problem with me is, I grew up with a father that spoils me and ended up marrying a guy that does the same.
I tell her that is not a problem at all, just luck of the draw 😉
But in all seriousness I am extremely lucky to have two such wonderful men in my life.
I’ve always been the independent do my own thing type and I think I have been able to do that because my dad was always in my corner, I also have my brother and uncles and more recently my husband.
The reason for my soppiness this morning is this:
-I was exhausted last night and came home to bed made in front of the tv from where I could chat to Rob and watch him cook one of my favourite meals, he is always spoiling me like that (usually food related though so I’m starting to think he is a borderline chubby chaser). Then I dosed off and woke up to a clean kitchen and Rob coming home from dropping off a hot toddy with my mom because he was worried about her being in bed with flu for a few days.
-Then this morning I needed a lift to the train station and my dad who had clearly overslept due to flu meds got up out of bed and pulled on jeans over his pjs to chase the train with me.
Thank you both I appreciate you more than you know
Ok soppy moment over, have a great day
100th post
This is officially my 100th post, I cant believe I have found 100 random things to say in just over two months. I started out just wanting an outlet for all the creative energy I had (us creative types need to be careful or we freak out or burn out) I was kinda scared that I wouldn’t have anything of importance to share, and mostly I was right hehehe, but it was still fun, just posting not knowing if someone will even see what I wrote. My comment section is still buggered up so mostly I have people commenting on twitter and facebook, which is cool, but I wont lie, Id love some interaction on the actual blog. To date I have had almost 1850 views (well aware that 300 of those could be from me) but none the less it’s great to know that somewhere out there someone is listening to me ramble on and looking at the pictures I take and find.
I intend to keep on posting, sharing and growing thanks soooo much for making me feel like there is someone out there sharing in life’s little moments with me.
MUCH LOVE ELLA
