hey stranger

Hi Sam, so good to hear from you.

l don't know about hang onto your hats it's going to be a bumpy ride, l was thinking more like where have you been this is the real world. Oh that doesn't mean just you Sam l mean um that feels like me and perhaps some of the other ladies feel that.

Emma and l started Tafe Thursday and yeah it was quite serious. We were given our first assessments which have a completion date and reading material for next week. So yeah NOW was very kind to us but just what we needed to get us to this point. I look back at NOW with very

fond memories.

I have been looking at this learning experience as not so much about what l am learning as such but more for me at this time as to what l am learning about myself. And that is perfect for where lam at.

We will have to work it out between us to catch up as we are all moving around at different times. How about you Nic when are you at Tafe?

Hope we can catch up , congratulations Sam on such a positive start.

Hold on to Your Hats ladies; It's going to be a Bumpy ride!

Huge Hello Lovely Ladies!

 

Well after a long and very full holidays

I welcomed back routine and TAFE

Little did I know what awaited me on the first day?

Can you believe I complete two assessments and Homework!

Now I sure you would love the homework reading chapter two (page 18-55)

Of Accounts to trail balance before next day class!

OMG! How easy was Sarah on us!

LOL! I have to say my relaxing and coping with stress techniques help me

From hyper ventaling and passing out on the spot...lol

No seriously with doing the NOW I would have been in very big doo,

I found myself using my new found learning style,

{Reading out loud, taking notes, and reading more}

Helped me so so much!

Along with Lots of Deep yoga Breaths...lol

Funny enough next day at TAFE No one had read the chapter and I was the one whom

Heard or read notes from the class stating this homework?

Also was very comfortable in the computer room sitting at the same computer

Missing my Ladies! Miss the sound of Emma speed typing, Hannah’s

Ooos and arr over the computer and

Renata and Tina Chatting over the silly computer book J

With Nicole and Jas somewhere in the background.

Missing you all so much!

This could be why I’m getting all my work done?!...lol

Sarah! Darling you’re a legend! And I am so grateful for the tools you

Have giving me, even though I watch the other ladies and one boy in our

Course freak out over the work that is handed to us, I feel very confident

That I will be able to learn and complete my tasks

Even in the Manual side of things I thought I would struggle

But so far, I have been able to grasp what I’ doing and taking loads of notes and written examples

And these are working a charm and adding to my confidence,

I really hope I do bump into all of your ladies at TAFE,

I’m looking forward to Monday afternoon!

I have Sarah for a class, it’s going to be hard not to jump up and give her a Hug!

He he! Just have to sit there with a silly grin!

Be lovely to see her J

Well I’m now going to start my Word homework and surprise surprise

With technology these days our Word and other assessments such as MYBO

Are sent through Moodle, an online student forum sort of thingy...lol

Wow don’t I sound all high tech...lol

I know Hannah & Tina have started their course today...

I’m at TAFE Monday afternoons and full day Tuesday and Wednesday  

So if you’re at Tafe let me know!   

 I’m thinking an hour a day of homework, will keep me on top of things J

Also my driving lessons are going really well, been driving on the bypass!

85km! OMG! Freak Out! Loll

Hope your all doing super well and

A HUGE Congrats to Emma! All Engaged! WOOT WOOT!

Keep smiling and enjoy the simple moments J

WET, WICKED AND WISDOM

 Hi Guys, hope all of you are good?
thanks Sarah for your words of wisdom. It is true to say there is a lot of experience in those years and with every experience comes something learned. I feel this inner confidence that l do know what i am doing and nothing can really dampen that. It's an assurance could l say?
I am SURE that is what is referred to as "women's wisdom".

Last weekend my daughter and l went up to Perth to see Wicked. I don't want to say to much because l know Sarah is off to see it in The Big Apple but l will say it was Fabulous ,absolutely Fabulous and l would love to be able to see it again. l am SURE it would be better again and again.
Sarah a little suggestion why don't you see the Australian version and then the Broadway version. l promise it won't take away anything from your NY experience.Go on.
I don't know if anyone else has noticed but every where l turn lately it's all about NY. It's everywhere.

So it's been wet,and we are just soaking up all that lovely rain. I know some of you hate it but it is after all winter and you don't want to live in a drought do you? But cold, oh my god l have layers and layers on. I also like that to as it reminds me of Melb.
But alas l have spent most of this 2nd week curled up in bed nursing myself back to health from the dreaded cold l caught whilst in Perth, blah ah. Lots of honey and lemon drinks and home made chicken soup. Must be better for next week to start Tafe again.

l hope everyone is looking forward to their new beginnings.Maybe we will all bump into each other.
Once again l hope you are all good.

Our Visions...

Huge Hello Lovely ladies,

i thought i better pop these up to share with the Great WWW

of our Vision boards,

Seriously after looking back at my close ups i must have had the wrong

setting and that dam fluorescent light!

blah!

Any way this is how we remember our paths and

 what makes us look forward into our bright futures!

First up is the stunning work by budding Pop Artist Hannah

I love Hannah's colour combo! Like a slap in the face! *pay attention*

I'm here and I'm me! this is what i got to say!

love how Hannah's also used the mirrors! totally inspiring!

Also wanted to share this  cool pic of Hannah!

 Rap gangsta Diva! :)

Next we have our Artist Renata with her Stunning painting

 Oh i still can't get over the lovely textures achieved in this painting!

seriously lovely!

Next is Artist Jasmine's Sculptor , totally perfect for Jas, as we all well know

she is utterly an outdoorsy love .

  

I only wish my setting were right on the camera, cause the details in the

objects are just so right, Jas is a very clever love in how she created her vision board.

Next we have collage Artist Tina

with this breathtaking creations

Honestly Tina is just amazing! How clever is this concept!

each door opening to her loves and ambitions

and the one window that is blocked off to hold in the fears,

So clever and inspirational!

Next we have another collage artist Jen

 with this colourful creation

Jen has really worked wonders with this canvas, really capturing her moments of happiness

and her different textures are so JOY!

Next Art work is an utter Jaw dropping Stunner!

Concept and collective ideas by Concept Arts Sarah!

Paint by her very talented Daughter In Law

How incredible is the detail in this painting!

the hand written words! OMG! if only i had such a steady hand!

and the colours are so vibrate and alive, you can't help but feel in awe of this painting.

Next we have our Collage artist Emma Art work

{Work in progress}

 I'm loven the concept of this creation, as all things grow, so do we :)

Nic! I'm so sorry darling, i have search my camera and files but it seems that i didn't

capture and pic of your journal!

please could you take a pic and upload for us, if your able too.

lastly we have my mess on a canvas..lol

i really enjoyed focusing on myself and what makes me happy and motivates me

i really think that these vision boards helped up to focus on these accepts of our selves that ll too often are pushed aside and not dealt with

i will find that i would like to create more vision boards as time goes on and i create new goals

and as many of you had mentioned, my visual diary will be forever growing :)

Missing you all!

 hope your all doing well

Laugh often

Love more  

Live well
