Waiting for a good time to quit your job? The stars will NEVER align. The traffic lights of life will NEVER all be green at the same time. The universe doesn't conspire against you, it just doesn't go out its way to line up the pins either. Conditions will NEVER be perfect, but someday is a disease that will take your dreams to the grave with you. Live in the NOW. Act NOW. NOW.
The time came when my job was done, and my role of playing stand in Mumma to three lovely little minions was over. But there was no time for missing, as the next day I was off to begin my two weeks of wanderlust. First stop was AMSTERDAM - One of my favourite cities in the world, and this time round I was going with one of my best friends.
We had a lovely time, those that follow me on Instagram or Facebook will see that we ate our weight in gold, with yummy Mexicans, chips, steaks, waffles and pancakes, and my oh my I discovered that not only is Amsterdam a beautiful, historic, pretty place but they have amazing food. We had so much fun, with all the tourist bits, drinking beer of course and even a night of dancing and other hilarity's. By day 2 I was definitely enjoying this well needed time out, I was actually back to being myself, chilled out and less worried about meal plans for children and lack of sleep.
Then it was back for a day...
AND THEN...
NEW YORK CITY
I wont lie, going to New York had been a dream since I was little, probably because I was obsessed with broadway, and anything theatre related. New York did not let me down..
As you can see. New York is a beauty. EVERYTHING about it screams THE ONE. Oh and the food was pretty amazing too.. which led me into a two week binge whilst being away where I ate everything and drank everything I came into contact with. The obese child inside me was having a party the whole time and loving life. There is something about being so far away from home that thrills and nerves me at the same time. I felt free, plus the time difference meant I stayed away from my phone way more than normal, and could get away from everything. Plus I went with my Mumma which meant I had all the home I needed for those 5 days. Everything is so grand there, and over the top. I would love to go one time, alone, and get lost in the city and just wander and wander...
I came back and I started my new job on Monday, everything has just been non-stop which is obviously what I wanted and what would happen.. but for now.. I need to take a breather.. and reflect...
Will be updating soon with Holiday related posts and other stuff, once I'm back on firm feet :)
