Wishful Wednesday

How quickly this year is already flying.  Summer is now behind us - not that we even had one - (apparently this past summer was the wettest in Melbourne on record as well as the 6th coldest - no wonder the white linen dress is sitting unworn).

My new home is beginning to take shape, even though there's still plenty of work to do.  Hoping to return to regular post writing/return visits shortly.

Haven't done a Wishful Wednesday post in a long time, so here's to returning to old ways.

I wish the impossible task of finding a new coat for winter was a little bit easier.  Kicking myself for not getting the perfect camel coat from Zara when I was overseas at Christmas.

Wishing for an occasion to dress up.

Already missing summer.  Had such a perfect weekend at the beach.. post coming up very soon.

I've had this quote saved on my computer for a while now.. His alleged recent actions are very distressing though.

Wishful Wednesday

Inner happiness...

"If you think happiness is found outside you, you will turn happiness into a search, a catch or a reward that you must earn. If, however, you know to find happiness in your inner self, then happiness becomes a compass, a teacher and an enabler that helps you to live your best life. A good starting point is to reflect on the question "When am I at my happiest?" People who follow their joy discover a depth of talent and creativity that inspires us all."

Wishful Wednesday...

This Wednesday I'm wishin' and hopin' to find some leopard print for the upcoming season.. and to actually be brave enough to wear it... How divine is this leopard print maxi dress?  Coupled with a bit of summer glow and simple gold shoes and accessories....

Wishful Wednesday

As you've read on my blog a thousand times over, I've had a pretty hard time of late accepting life and all of the things that it has dealt me.  Making mistakes, learning, moving forward is sometimes more difficult than it seems.  Dishing advice is a lot easier than receiving it.

So today I wish for self acceptance of the past.  Maybe, just maybe all those things did happen for a reason, and one of these days it will become obvious whyyyy.

At least a couple of reasons to smile...

My desk to magically declutter itself.

And I really wish that summer would hurry up, so I can go for a long drive, a swim and a glass of champagne by the ocean...

Today I wish for self acceptance for all... self love and confidence...and for myself some productivity studying for my exam, which is in 23 hours time! EEEK!

Wishful Wednesday

I wish that difficult decisions were easier to make.  I wish I knew the outcome of those decisions.  Or at least, I wish I had SOME indication as to whether the decision is right.  But that's the beauty and the mystery of life, isn't it?

"The most difficult thing is the decision to act, the rest is merely tenacity.  The fears are paper tigers.  You can do anything you decide to do.  You can act to change and control your life; and the procedure, the process is its own reward."  Amelia Earhart

Wishful Wednesday

This Wednesday I wish that I had more money to do the things I really want to do. You know the saying, work to live, not live to work?

I also wish that the alarm clock didn't exist.  Interrupted sleep is world's worst invension.  Snooze!
