A list to end the week that was...

*insert meaningful quote* cos I am all out of inspiration (sigh)

I have writer's block and am so tired tonight that I can't really think in my usual perky way. The words, they are not coming out write :P

Hence I would like to share with you a few things I learned this week.

This week I learned

• that children die. Children who have never truly had an opportunity to live life... die. Sea's passing has left me over-cautious about Monkey. My mind is replaying what-ifs and in-cases. It's driving us insane. I recognise when I am doing it but I can't seem to stop it. 
• that genetics is one sick puppy sometimes.
• that Amazing Grace is not a good song to sing. EVER. But especially not at a child's funeral
• that social networking can really stuff up a friendship. And create new ones.
• that any talk about changing citizenship status should be approached very carefully.
• that my NZ citizenship ceremony is in a week!!
• that there are people out there who will go out of their way to make a near-strangers' day.
• that I am difficult and prone to moods.
• that I am quite passive aggressive.
• that I don't miss soft drinks.
• that I still crave bacon and chocolate (not together).
• that I can slip up with the new eating plan but I can go back to it... all is not lost.
• that exercise is fun *shhhh don't tell anyone*.
• that I haven't got infinite patience.
• that years and distance can really affect a friendship
• that I love my coffee group girls!
• that this list is too long!
