Interesting couple of Days

A few interesting things have happened this weekend and I am planning a few for the next two weeks. Saturday morning I took my daughter for her piercings. I was dreading it because I did not want to hurt her, but her dedication in coming up and I wanted her to look more girly so I sucked it up. She hollered Like a banshee when they did it, but was all smiles 5 minutes later and has been great ever since. She has some bling now lol



My hubby and L went to the Nigeria VS Argentina match on Saturday afternoon... I really wish I could have gone with, but hey, I spent the day with my one toothed fairy and it was awesome. She fell asleep and gave me a chance to do everything I needed, cleaning and laundry was all done at the end of the day. Not bad for a full time mommy, employee and everything else.

Today I got up with the feeling that it would be a great day. I am seriously sleep deprived but things still feel like they will be looking up. I don't know why this mood has befallen ( is that a word? ) me since we have soooo much stress right now. Our car is being fixed because some drunk teen stole the car from his mom and smashed ours real bad, we are driving my moms red T and had to pay to fix the window because some dweeb decided to steal my groceries; and money is not too tight but we are trying ( hubby is ) to be cautious. Yet it feel like a good day. Then out of nowhere I get and email from a Magazine for a Competition I won. I entered on the net a couple of weeks ago and since I never win anything, I completely forgot about it. Well today I won a......

An Avent Steam Blender!!! Yeah!!!

The sad part is that I already bought a blender a couple of weeks ago... off to junk mail to sell it now since it has never been used.

So the next few days will be exiting. Tomorrow is Youth Day and people at my work have remembered it in great way:

I will be spending my youth day with my family. We have decided that we want to take the Gautrain for a spin and then watch the SA vs Paraguay match at my uncles place, but I guess we will have to see.

There are a few movies I want to check out, ' Death at a Funeral' seems like one I would love, I think hubby and I should make it a date before Father's day. Buy the way, Father's day seems to be a dilemma all on its own. Next week Sunday in my babies dedication at church and I am sooo exited to 'Bring Her into the family of God' as the invitation states.

Well, think I have blabbered on for way too long, so I will say enjoy your youth day and GO BAFANA GO!!!!

World Cup Opening...

My Boss said I could stay at home on Friday because we work in the middle of the road closers around Soccer city, and man was FRIDAY A GREAT DAY!!!

My sister and I had planned to go to my moms church for the day but the weather worried us since A is only 4 months old and her son M is only 11 months old. We decided to go and take a look anyway and ended up staying....WOW WHAT A GOOD CHOICE.

The atmosphere was amazing. When the Kick off match started, it sounded like we were at the game. The people, the Vuvuzela's, everything was great. The moment that really took my breath away is when Tshabalala scored that goal, it was like a roaring earthquake... man that was an awesome moment. Everybody went wild!! There was nothing like being in the midst of all these proud people. Our country has really impressed me so far, they have done well across all avenues with this world cup and we are truly a world class country now. Here are some pics of me in my Bafana Bafana gear:

A lot to tell...

I find difficulty blogging on my Black Berry so I have not blogged since Thursday, but brace yourself... I have a lot to tell today. So here we go.

About me: I am a 24 year old project assistant and have been married to my handsome J since 2007. I am a on again off again phsyhology student (finances) but recently decided to do short courses in photography and Doula classes ( when I get the money ).
I really enjoy learning new things and exploring taboo topics. I am a natural birth advocate in every sense of the word. Oh and one more thing ' I also want world peace' he he he...

My family: I am the product of pastoral music parents and sing myself.
My son L was born via unnecesary c section in 2006 and my daughter A was born naturally on my hallway floor into my little sisters arms. ( yes we are pretty dramatic that way LOL)

Typical South African: I talk like a coloured, I have family at the Cape Town Flats and love the song ' Make the circle beeeger'! My hubby, my sister and I have all been robbed and just last week the car was broken into and my groceries were stolen! Gotta love it hey.. lol.
I was a teen mom and so was my sister and..... but most of all I am a PROUD SOUTH AFRICAN!
Nothing beats the culture, the people and the landscape! All the other stuff are but a drop in the ocean.

GO SA GO!
