When you make a conscious choice to be happy, no one can take it away from you because no one gave it to you: you gave it to yourself.

A quote from April Green's - Bloom For Yourself Journal

Lost, goodbye & oh well!

So my readers you will have noticed I've not posted the last couple of days. It was never my plan to post every single day because well, even I of chatterbox nature, will find it hard to post something worth reading everyday!

But this Monday I'm here to share my Saturday with you. Keagan and I went to watch our boys, Bristol Rovers, play at home. As it was Keagan's last match for a while what with him going off to pursue his racing career, we met up with friends in the supporters bar. Everyone wished him well and offered up useful advice.

I arranged a couple of surprises for Keagan. I arranged for a good luck message to be read out over the tanoy and also had a small piece put into the programme!!

 As you can see it was rather a grey day to start and well, it ended very grey as we lost 1 - 4!
 Here's me and my boy before the game.
 Here's the piece I had put in the programme! 

My Q & A journal asks -

How do you feel about your body?

Rather personal! Well as I see it, I am me. That's it. I'm neither tall, thin or tanned. Quite the opposite, but I do not care. I'm not bothered. I wear what I'm comfy in and what is easiet for me to get dressed and undressed. Though I do like to dress up now and again. Here's a pic of me at my brother's wedding. This is my parents, my brother and me. I wore a vintage dress and I felt fabulous!

This is actually me at my most heaviest. I'm a good half a stone lighter now. But on that day I felt amazing! 

Take care Zo xx

Sounds like you had a great grey day :-) What a lovely Mum you are to do that for Keagan - I bet he was really chuffed :-) Have a great week.

Good luck to Keagan as he starts a new chapter in his life. Shame about the result on Saturday, but I'm sure he appreciated the little surprises you arranged for him. xx

I am not good at commenting on non crafty posts, but I do read them and thought I would just say hi today.

You look fab in that dress.
Sorry to have missed you all Saturday, but I was not safe to drive that far. Gutted as I was so looking forward to it. I had even packed everything ready too.
