Inspiration

I'm feeling hugely inspired but the fact that it's the start to a new year, something that I've not normally been particularly phased by. I feel like I've needed the ticking over of a new calendar year to motivate myself and propel myself in a slightly different direction to last year.
It's not that I feel I need to change huge things about myself or that 2013 was a bad year (quite the opposite), but I do feel that there are certain things that I want to cater for this year, to allow myself the time to explore and achieve new goals.

I was going to go with writing a big long list of things I feel I need to focus on:

1. Health

2. Family and Friends

3. Spirituality

4. Hobbies

The truth of it is I have a tendency of writing big long list that overwhelm me and never end up being completed or ticked of. So I'm going with this one word:

Me

Sounds Selfish, maybe. But this year I'm making it a year of self discovery. Yes, I want to get fitter/ healthier, be closer with family and friends, spend more time on hobbies and find myself spirituality. (not too much to ask for ?)
But above all I want to find ME and I've felt recently like I haven't been myself. Maybe I've been too tired, too stressed, too lazy......the list goes on. But for now, I'm putting a stop to it :-) I'll let you know how I get on.

I'm going to ride this feeling of motivation for as long as it lasts, I sure hope it lasts!!! New Year, New Me!!!


With motivation riding high I spent a few ours this weekend working on my blog. I went outside onto the balcony (I have a balcony now!) and took some pictures making the most of the sunlight.

I took some pictures of a new project:

A current, but not so new project:

And lots of pictures of things around the house that make me feel all tingly inside:

I really made the most of my photo taking session and can't wait to talk about each of these pictures in more detail with you over the next week or so.

Until then I hope these pictures can inspire you and the colour makes you feel as warm inside as it does with me.

Let's make it COLOURFUL!!!

Hello Lovelies! 

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!

I do hope you are all doing well? 

What have you all been up to, and how was your Holiday Season? As you all know I've been off the radar for the past couple of months. My busy schedule got the better of me and something had to give.....my blog :-( 

I've really missed coming to share and chat with you all, I'm sure we have a HUGE amount to catch up on and can't wait to get chatting again.

I keep coming back to this post and wandering the best way to start blogging again, I'm feeling a little rusty.  I wasn't sure If I should fill you in on the past couple of months or just start afresh and delve into 2014.

I decided to jump straight into the "NOW",  and not to write mountains and mountains about the previous months. They've been jam packed and full and if I was to write in too much detail I'd always be playing blog catch up. Of course I'll fill you in over time, just not in one big lump!

So here I am back in the moment and very much looking forward to blogging throughout 2014!

Thanks for waiting for me, allowing me to disappear and come back now that things have calmed down again.  I appreciate that :-)

Here's to a POSITIVE, PASSIONATE and BLOOMING MARVELLOUS 2014, Let's make it COLOURFUL!!!
