So, you do a wee on a stick and then everything changes.
Suddenly you are catapulted into a routine of medical checks, nappies, bottles, night feeds, nursery visits, preschool and school runs (allow 2 hours a day) Brownies, Cubs, football and dance classes, trips to the dentist/doctors, parent evenings, being robbed blind by shoe shops, packed lunches, P.E. kits, making a Bee/Roman/Angel/Donkey costume, homework (you end up doing most of it, did anyone tell you that?).
Much of it is a bit boring, lots of it is rather lovely – but ALL of it…is inevitable.
(Don’t worry – it eases up after the first 25 years….)
We like this Blog to be full of admiration for you, useful tips and hopefully, support for you in getting through all this lot.
For today, though – let’s flipping ignore the whole thing.
Remember YOU?
The pre-wee-stick you.
The you, full of dreams, ambitions, things you wanted to see and experience – and feel.
Well this post is all about that you, because that is the you that is going to make the other you much happier.
We need to get you a BUCKET LIST.
A bucket list is simply a list of all those things you things you want to do, you display it, you tick them off as you go and you make sure everyone knows they are IMPORTANT.
So take some time to write yours, get a cuppatee, put on some music and get writing.
It might take you a little while, and you can add to it (when you get inspired) and sometimes cross things off (if you go off an idea).
Here’s one:
Here’s Another:
We would love to see your list.
In the meantime – I am unashamedly posting this link again, as it seems particularly pertinent (and actually I don’t care – it’s just brilliant and you should listen to it once a week anyway)
Have a great week – and SERIOUSLY make this list – it will change your life and put all the other stuff into perspective.
Life is about how you FEEL – not feeling, is not really living.
(Whether if it is nervous, apprehensive, passionate or elated)
To feel – you have to DO.
Do this.
