The synchronicity  of my thoughts and everyone else’s questions has sparked an interesting question. What happens to project me after day 135?

First Greggie asked, but his was more sarcasm at what excuse I would use to get out of dates early and leaving him to clean his kitchen after I have made a total mess cooking.

Then my special cyber friend, Robbie, who has supported me and my ‘project’ from the moment it started asked what after day 365? Continue reading

I have just deleted all that I had planned to blog about and find myself with a blank canvas and a heading that I have no intention of changing. I had started to reminisce and list all of the events that have filled up the precious moments of ‘project me’ and even went as far as to link certain events for further reminiscing, but then I realised that I know my story well enough and so do my loyal followers.

Firstly, my Greggie is sick and my natural mothering instincts are to molly coddle him and make sure that he does all the things within the collective to make sure he gets better. That would just be totally dumb considering we both know that he didn’t ‘catch’ flu and that manifested if from whatever is going on in that gorgeous physical body of his. So there’s no stopping him from doing anything he doesn’t want to do and the battle was won at about lunch time when I left him in capable hands of a dear friend and toddled on home.

It’s human nature to focus on the ‘don’t haves’ and I’ve made it my mission this year to be as conscious as possible and realise all that I do have. In 2 days time I will have hit the 200 mark of ‘project me’. 200 days of being conscious and focusing on all that I do have. I can write lists about the gratitude I have for my life and am also bold enough to say how awesome I know I am and the impact that I know I can have on the world. Or do I? Continue reading

Last night a friend and fellow blogger posed a question to me. He asked if would consider taking all the entries of ‘project me’ and turning it a published memoir in the end. I said … ‘Hmmmm’.

So … Should I turn ‘project me into a book at the end of it? Continue reading

(This one’s got adult content guys, you have been warned!)

It’s hard to imagine that you can have an extremely eventful day without even getting out of bed.
I took the day off from going into the office for a number of reasons. The last of them was actually the greatest of all because I had no idea today would be so freaking cold. While the rest of South Africa was doubling up on jerseys and wrapping scarves around themselves to keep warm, I literally stayed in bed all day. Continue reading

It’s freezing cold and seems to only be getting colder. I’m a bit of a ninny in the cold but that’s not the point of the story. It’s more about my tattoo that’s been hidden behind jerseys and jackets for ages now. I love it! I hear that lots of people have a moment of regret after they have their tattoos. Some even panic that they’ve made a major mistake … not me … I adore my goddess. Continue reading

I love updating my Facebook status. Don’t really care who reads it or what anyone thinks of me because of them. I just care that there’s a place to splash out a thought, a moment and a reflection of who I am on a daily basis. My Facebook is riddled with friends and family and if I really cared I think I would sensor it a little more. But I’ve learned that being me is so much more fun that pretending to be someone else.

So I lost a day of the ‘project me’ blog and as I realised I tossed a status out there: ‘Lost a day!’ … Continue reading

I failed maths.
That always rings in my head when I am left to do anything that has to do with numbers. I never mastered my times tables and still use my fingers to do some adding.  I can tell more horror stories about not loving adding the tip on a bill, but that’s not the point. The point is that I’ve worried about this very minor detail since I started ‘project me’. Continue reading

Your eyes do not deceive you. I am blogging twice in one night and all in desperate need to keep to my self inflicted promise of blogging daily. I know that I could change that at any time, but the crazy things is that not one part of me wants to. I love blogging daily for so many reason … but something happened on day 191.

I meditate in the mornings and my mediations are as unique and strange as I am. If I had to compare myself to others who meditate I might conclude that someone in the equation is a little crazy. I don’t watch my mind and I don’t try to still it either. I don’t listen to guided visualisation or sit in a meditation position. Continue reading
