So I have been a wee down these last few days. So in a effort to get my crap together I have written a little note to ones self to help myself get over myself and stuck it on my wall.
Its a little reminder to myself of what makes me happy because you know I believe in the old adage suck it up baby..someone else always has it worse off than you and watching those five coffins being palled bear-ed off that RAAF Hercules this morning tells me that…
for the family of those brave boys and men I am deeply and sincerely sorry for your loss..be proud in knowing that their service will for ever be grateful in keeping us safe, well and happy.
Thank you xx Deb
So my top 25 things that make me happy…
