Day 13 - letter to someone who has really hurt you

This is a struggle. Not for any emotional reason, but because I cant think of anything really recent. I'm not trying to say my life is perfect, because obviously it isn't, but I'0m pretty blessed. So, I am going to turn this around. I hate all this focusing on the negatives, I want to write a letter to someone who has made me feel so loved and again, blessed, to have the people in my life that I do. 




My Angel,


It is hard to put in to words how wonderful, and giving you are, and how special you are to D & I. I don't believe many have seen or understand the heartache we go through watching people around us have children, knowing there may be a chance we will never experience it ourselves. We have tried constantly to keep upbeat around others, to make sure that family and friends do not see the grief we feel at missing out on such a special gift. And while you sit, seeming to most to be not bothered by those around you, you see it all. You came to me the other day, at a low time. Again, another pregnancy was announced. You knew the pain I would be feeling. And then you offered us the greatest gift of all, a child.


It is not for any reason, except for fear and love, that we say no. How can we ask that of you? How can we put you through a process which will tear your heart in two? I would be honored to have a child that you carried, that you nurtured and have given life to, but how can I live knowing that for me to have this child, you have to live seeing a child you gave birth to raised by another?  


I want you to know that you will always have a very, very special place in our hearts, and we have not brushed off your offer with ease. I will always stand by your side and fight for what ever you want in life, and will support your decisions and your choices, because you have given me hope. I know that no matter what way we will eventually have to go, we will always have that final option. For that we are eternally grateful. 


With much love
Us xoxox

So there it is, my letter. 


yep Im blessed

Day 9-12

Following on
Day 9 - Something that I am proud of this week

I am super proud of my hubby. Above it the logo of his campaign for safer cycling, url is safecyclingaustralia.org. He is campaigning for a minimum of 1 metre distance between cars and bicycles while overtaking. He is working so hard, and doing so well. I am so super super in love with him....

Day 10 - Songs I listen to when....(insert emotion)
This is honestly a tricky one. I love all sorts of music and will listen to whatever whenever. I do prefers Norah Jones, Missy Higgins, Jewel, Laura Marling, Angus and Julie Stone to sing along too, and 80s love ballads to drive to, but Im happy with anything.

Day 11 - Pic of me and friends
Ill pass on this one

Day 12 - How did you find out about blogging...why do you do it?
I honestly cant remember where I found out about it. I have always written a journal, and only recently found one from when I was 11, so this was the natural progression. I do still keep a journal though.
Through blogging I want to enhance my writing skills, use it as an outlet, and find and share some interesting ideas. I also want to learn more about blogs and websites. Eventually use my skills to find something I am good enough at to make some money from. (No I do not expect to make any money from this blog)
I have just found CNN's ireport bootcamp, hopefully that will help fine tune some skills.

Day 3, 4 & 5

Ok so I dont have a pic of me and friends, 1) I dont have pics of me 2) I dont have many friends...haha...well not ones with pics

A bad habit, I have heaps. My biggest one is Iced Coffee. I am in love with Iced coffee. Just the bottled stuff, I hardly ever drink the whole thing, but its a HABIT. I need to break it.

A pic of a place I have been....hmmm

Day 6-8

Ok so Ive been slack, I blame my gorgeous hubby and his campaigning. I have not had access to a comp for awhile. Well not long enough to do some posting.
So onto Day 6
My favorite Superhero...why?
Well I think its pretty self explanatory from the name of my blog
Picture is from sodahead.com

I want to be Superwoman. I think its the Capricorn in me, the perfectionist. I want it all. I want the perfect home, my gorgeous hubby, kiddies and a great job. I want people to look at me and want what I have. I grew up with nothing, I had people thinking I had the 'perfect' family, but it masked what was really underneath. I want to create it now.
Day 7 - The person/ thing that has the biggest impact on my life.
This is a bit of an out there one for me. Growing up I lived with a non practising catholic family, who I can honestly say never really looked outside the norm, well except for Aliens. (my mum was obsessed thanks to Xfiles). But I for some reason found this liking of Buddha and what he represented. By no means was I ever as disciplined as his followers, but it struck a chord. Because of him, I learnt to not  go with the flow, but to make my own path. Yes it is rocky, I make lots of mistakes, but they are of my choosing.

Day 8 - Short Term goals for the month - why
Ok, well this is a pretty easy one, my goals for October....(might I just say Im a list/goal maker, I redo them daily)
1. Gym/Exercise 3 x per week
2.  Not buy takeaway more than 3 x for dinners
3. Eat at the kitchen table
As you can probably tell, my life revolves around losing weight. I need to, Im in baby making mode. I need all the help I can get!
Well thats the end of 3 days...see you in a few more

Day 2 - The meaning behind Mobykat

So ok, Im going to tell a secret, come in close. Make sure you dont tell anyone...I havent told anyone before.
Where did I get mobykat from?
well......
one day I was in my cabin (I lived out the back of my folks house) and I was earning enough to put on the phone, which meant that I could finally get the internet. So I called Telstra (the only ppl really doing it at that time) and was listening to the radio. They asked for a user name, I was listening to Moby (yeah original) so said Moby-kat. Kat came from my name, Kat, kitty, trini, trina (but really Katrina). Over time I lost the hyphen, and became mobykat. I have been that eversince.
