Live each day as if your life had just begun.
- Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
It’s my birthday today and I came across the quote above. I totally feel like it’s for me as I turn another year older! yes, another year and a new start!
The snow has melted away and the weather has been absolutely gorgeous. I like this time of the year!
hope you are enjoying the change in your lives today…
hugs…….

This week’s theme is “in hindsight”. I could post very long list right now, but I won’t.
So for today’s post I’ll have to say in hindsight 1 sugar cube would have been enough…2 was a little too much!
I’m in Turkey right now and chey (chai-tea!) is totally their thing and I’m really enjoying it!
For more CV's start with Francesca.
I’ve gone through the fridge, cleaned it out and given away food that might go bad while we’re away. All the laundry is done and my house is clean. I’m ready. We’re ready!
We’re out of here tomorrow and are heading to Turkey, and I can’t wait. Renee left last Friday with her classmates for Space Camp and she’s having so much fun. Thankfully she’s kept in touch with us these last couple of days and so it’s been easy on me. Unlike last year when she made her trip, and she never left Thailand! (I posted about it here).
What a difference a year makes.
Well like I said I’m ready to get out of Kazakhstan for a little. The cold, snowy overcast days are beginning to get me down and I’m in desperate need of some sunshine. I’m thinking Turkey will be cold but it can’t be as cold as here. I know Abu Dhabi won’t be and Australia will be lovely, as always!
Here’s some photo’s of the snow we’ve had here. I hope it’s all gone by the time we come back!
Happy Week wherever you are!
Corner View is a weekly appointment - each Wednesday - created by Jane, and hosted by Francesca. It’s where bloggers from all corners of the world share their view on a pre-arranged theme.
This weeks theme is “everyday!”
There are some things that I try to do everyday – like exercise. But of course it doesn’t always happen. And then there are those things that I make a committed and conscious effort to do everyday!
Like I tell him everyday that I love him, and that I‘m thankful that he’s my husband! I don’t want to take that for granted.
And I also tell my kids that I love them. sometimes they’ll say they love me back and other times they don’t. But that doesn’t matter.
Thanks Elizabeth for the theme and thanks Francesca for hosting. For more corner views start with Francesca.
Remember that children, marriages, and flower gardens reflect the kind of care they get.

Today was a free day!! An extra day that won’t show up again for four more years!!
So what did you do with your extra day?
I didn’t do anything special. I wish I did though. I made breakfast, made lunch and then dinner. did a couple of loads of laundry. Also attended a meeting, had coffee with a friend and made tortilla’s with Renee’s class mates, who’ll have a Taco Bar this Friday to raise money for the Salvation Army. Just another day!
Well It’s the end of my day here and as i sit and type this I realize how easy it is to take the day for granted, to just go through the motions and not make the day count for something.
I don’t want to do that…. I hope to make March special!!
Happy Corner viewing and thanks Francesca for being such a terrific host!!
I miss him. I miss the talks we used to have, the laughs, him loving on my kids and just being Dad. There’s not a day that goes by that I don’t stop to think of him and what things would be like today if he was still with us.
we still celebrate your life Dad!!
Happy Birthday!!
