Can anyone tell me what "Time" is???

What I do know about it people is that it FLIES! Way to fast and I am not keeping up with it. I'm still struggling on the energy thing and it's starting to become a pesky little problem. No,  I haven't completed my challenges for a week and it makes me sad...! I'd be lying if I said I have a really good excuse and truth is you all probably wouldn't believe it anyway!

Last week sometime we had a tiny bit of snow that is for the first time in Johannesburg since 1981. I wasn't even born yet! LOL so this snowy thing was quite an exciting day for me and I'm sure millions of other skittles (people Hehehe) out there.

Not my best picture lol!

I happened to be in Johannesburgs CBD when It got struck by a blizzard! check it out!!
Side of the highways!

What The city looked like... white! 

This week has already started and I have 3 challenges to do by Saturday! time is going again and I'm still wondering where I can find work! Just ridiculously... Ridiculous. I thought I had an ear ache for the last week but apparently it is or was a strained muscle in my neck that was causing it to ache? Well, What I do know is that by the time I left the other side of my neck was a million times more sore than it was when I arrived! Not impressed and I'm still wondering if the doc knows what is really happening. Hmmmm!

There is One challenge I managed to tackle and that's a sewing one! yes I did sew! I am quite proud on the object thing I made with a little help on how to do it from my mom hehe 


WAIT FOR IT.........





A Pillow Case! whoop whoop! 
The FRONT...>





The BACK....> 
A two sided pillow ! Definitely proud of this one!


Then I felt that seeing as I was putting some awesome looking pillows into my room, I need to sort out the chaos and make a sorted, liveable room. So, on Women's Day, I pulled everything off my shelves and tables and sorted through every little thing. It needed to be done but boy in some way, it was GREAT fun!

Our found many things from good memories that I forgot I even had! My problem is though, I like to keep the most ridiculous things for memories that I realized was really not needed. BUT! Always a good ;augh going back to that particular memory!

 My room before-----------> Embarrassment!


The after effect! Feeling much better!


That's all for now as I have to go and try catch up with all my challenges As fast as possible! 

wish me luck :)

Tata!

I started this blog because... 

I can! Okay, yes that's a good reason, although there are a few others. I have another blog that I write about my grandpa having Alzheimers and I do this for me and for other people who may feel they are alone out there with someone suffering from this disease. It is a good way to just relieve some of the stress that a person can carry dealing with it. http://goodbye-grandpa.blogspot.com/

I wanted to do a different blog that will be happier and maybe colourful as I am someone who just absolutely loves colour and happiness. I had no idea how I was going to do this as well as what it would even be about! 
My mom of course is my inspiration for many, many things in life and I love her dearly. She, yes the cats mother! will always be my idol and I will always look up to her. I am incredibly lucky to have the mom I do. 

Love and appreciate your moms! Its good for you! Ha ha ha.

Though there is another fabulous lady who inspires me, she is one of my moms friends too and she has a blog. Her name is Lizette Hunt and her blog is called...http://lizettehunt.blogspot.com/. I say lizette inspires me because of what crazy exciting things she comes up with and the things she does. Her blog is all about doing challenges and improving things in her life. I was inspired to do the same and as some of our challenges may be different they are also different. I do just want to say that my next post will possibly be similar to one of her recent posts but with good reasoning *wink*  Thank to Lizette for inspiring me to push and challenge myself and encouraging me to persevere with the things I do in my life!

Lizette had once said that she for once enjoys people telling her what challenges to do and how to do it and that it was a challenge for her to listen and follow through. 

For me it's to do some challenges that are given to me but mainly to give MYSELF the challenges to complete as I have always waited for people to tell me what to do. 

I want to say thank you too these two amazing women!

Lastly, Thank you too the friends who read these silly blogs I do and thank you for supporting me! Amanda is one true amazing friend and My boyfriend Adam who I love deeply and for some unknown reason loves me! I am blessed too have so many incredible people in my life and it is a challenge for me to make sure I keep them right where they are!

Its ONE day later... and I'm blogging again! It's a miracle! He hehe

I know to many, many people my challenges are not so challenging but this is me starting to make changes and one day taking on even harder challenges and push myself to the limits I know I can reach. These small challenges are also things to keep me busy and completing something instead of sitting watching T.V! 

There are so many things that I am dying to do and intend on doing them by forcing myself to miss one of my many favourite shows! It's silly and all but I love some of the shows they have running and after a long, tiring day becoming a sack of potatoes on the couch just relaxes me and I forget about all the crap that's going on out there. The only reason why I want to stop some of that is because I actually enjoy doing something and seeing the outcome!

I'm not going to do the four words right now because I should be working but I'm going to try two challenges today and see if I can have one ready to post tomorrow :) Just a bit of crafts!

Chat tomorrow :)

I've been naughty.... Oh goodness! I am so ashamed of myself. I've done two challenges, only two and one of them wasn't even planned.

Time was not on my side last week and energy?? What is that? I don't even know what that word means. I'm twenty and all I want to do is sleep! SO! does anyone have suggestions to help me get my energy levels up and running??? HELP!

Now I could just be miserable and whine about how I haven't done my challenges and complain about that pain in the arse four letter TIME... Or, I could move and tell you about my two tiny little challenges I did and how proud I was to do them. Now as you know I get the weekly challenge from http://www.onlinelifemakeover.com/ and last week was to let my feminine side come out a bit more with heels and lipstick or whatever I felt gave me some spark, well I tend to wear heels and all... ALL THE TIME so I decided I should where a bold, yet my favourite colour Red and my highest heels and so I did!

I think I look quite feminine He he he 


Then seeing as I managed to miss all the challenges I said I would do I took on one that I decided I wanted to do. A friend of mine said he really wanted someone to make cookie monster cupcakes and he would be indebted to whoever made one. Hey hey! I thought I should try it and I accepted the challenge!


The original artist ------>
 <------and I created this! Now I'm no Masterchef but I am pretty proud of this outcome as it was my first time to bake cupcakes! and I made Cookie Monsters!

Find something Random like this and try it! It's great fun and you learn how to improvise.

I went to gym for the first time ever in my entire life with my boyfriend as he LOVES the gym and I could never understand why. It's actually not that bad and somehow I was not in pain the next day... But that challenge is not on just yet... I still need to be dragged back to decide if I enjoy it LOL!

enough for tonight! I am going to try my best to blog more often!

THREE looooong days later.... Oops. It's not by my fault that I haven't been able to blog. Everything was stopping me but I am making sure that does not happen even if I don't sleep... Eeek!!

It's one of those weeks where I feel I need a bit of time on my own and I made that happen! I really have enjoyed it and it has helped me improve on things by thinking everything through. I know everyone out there always recommends it but just be selfish and tell everyone including family that you need me time and if you don't like it tough. Even if its just a few hours! Being at school I used to have that time... Sigh... School, oh how I miss SOME of it! Taking a walk to the park was so much easier and there weren't to many time restraints.

I took on my challenges for the last two days and obviously the new words one two but as I said before I'll give you one of the days *Wink* And I added an extra one. Not a BEEEG project, but it was the one changing my lamps a bit to suit the new colour scheme.

First though are the Photo a day challenges! So for Tuesday it was inside your handbag... Hmmm, I don't actually have a lot in it but here it is:

Then, Wednesday, Is something you do everyday....Well, Seeing as I work.. This is it:
Exciting Huh?? LOL

Alright so that was that challenge done for two days.... And then there, of course is Thursday... Which is today! Oh No! I need to go take a photo! I'll quickly go do that in 5 minutes. Let me finish All my writing on this post and I'll add it to this post when I'm done! Because I can and not because I'm lazy! Actually it's because my Mom will probably kill me if she knew I was taking pictures instead of working! Let's keep that one quiet!

Now for lamp, Its not much different than it was before BUT I did it myself this time and refused to let my Mom help and I was quite proud I got it right even though it's so simple! I used to have a multi-coloured  room because I absolutely adore colour and I'm not worried about being safe. Although, Because I had just turned Twenty I felt I needed to mature my room up a bit and went with neutral colours. It definitely calmed me head down and made me a bit more relaxed. Thank goodness!

<----Here's a before! 
                      AND THEN!...... After---------->
"Its so FLUFFY" and I LOVE it!


Tomorrow is a very sad day for my little family as we are saying goodbye to these two very special angels!Aren't they too precious for words? Atleast the people taking them will love them as much as we do! 7 Weeks old on Saturday! *Big Smiles* 
Once a Scottie owner ALWAYS a Scottie owner!

Now for the Four words! Enjoy!

Reparation: Compensation; amends

Chapatti: A flat thin piece of a kind of bread

Usurp: Take power or a position or right etc. 

Furore: An excited or angry uproar

Some good ones this time! YAY! 

Alright here is Wednesday's picture! Its what I will do to enhance my life!



Walking up this road and back everyday! *SMILE*

Whoop whoop! That's enough for today! Suppose I should get back to work then!

cheerio!

Monday! right now one of the coldest days in South Africa and I am Not a happy chappy! Although I took in my stride and ignored it as much as I could!

YAY! I recieved my Week 2 challenge from //www.onlinelifemakeover.com and somehow needed to start it today even though i only recieved it late this evening. Right, So my challenges for this week are:


This Week's Challenge
I dare you to take a picture every day of the week and to post in on the Pretty Powerful Facebook Fan Page - with a blurp to help us "get it".

The theme for each day is listed below. 

How to do it:

  • Monday:  My lunch
  • Tuesday:  The contents of my handbag
  • Wednesday:  I do this every day
  • Thursday:  Something I could do to enhance my life
  • Friday: The inside of my fridge
Now seeing as I only received the challenges just now I obviously couldn't do the lunch challenge so instead took a picture of my yummy dinner my mom had made! Its one of my favourites!


Its Chicken casserole and for some reason it looks like theres a lot there and theres really not! LOL.

So theres Mondays picture done :D Atleast it's a nice warm meal for the FREEZING evening!

Now, There was also my Four words a day challenge, except i missed Sunday... Which technically means I owe you eight words... Well I think that will just fluster your minds so I'll leave it at four! here they are!:

Pipette: A small glass tube used in a lab!

Kibbutz: A commune in Israel, especially for farming. Mmmmm interesting.

Agglomeration: A Mass of things collected together. I LOVE This word

Tautology: Saying the same thing again in different words EG: You can get the book free for nothing.

Definitely some cool words I could use to confuse some people! LOL This learning words just completes my day Haha! Now A Challenge I'm thinking of adding to this week is changing up my lamps to match my new colour scheme in my room..... I will post a photo of the before soon and then the result when I am done! Whoop. Feeling great Already!

Enjoy your eve!

Krazy Loves!
