m.i.a and a bit of random shit

Hello! How are you? My name is Cheryl, and I blog here {did blog here} on a bit of bliss and mayhem. I thought I had better reintroduce myself as it feels like an age since I came on here last and wrote a post.

Truth is, I lost my mojo for it over the last few weeks - on top of sick kids, work and everything else in between I just couldn't find the inspiration to write, let alone anything that I would have written, would have been boring as fuck.

Sooooo... what's been happening with you? I haven't had a free weekend in FOREVER and am looking forward to our break to Bali in 11days, 19hours and 12minutes....just saying.

And my melancholy seems to be lifting due to the Spring weather that has hit Melbourne. Thank god for SUN! I seem to function better with better weather. When winter hits - I seem to hibernate and my tollerance level is way down. I think I'm getting old.

So what's been happening with me? Heaps and nothing and all the in between. Now just imagine me doing some artistic dance moves to some groovy hippy music as I have some pics of the last few weeks to share with you.... you're welcome.

Here is a beautiful photo of some flowers that little Jack picked for me the other day to get you in the mood

Steve and I enjoyed a night on the town a couple of weeks ago. "Date night", no kids and we were both stuffed by 11pm and ready for bed - but hey, we gave a real good crack and the lighting made us look hot!

My baby turned 11! I know! I can't get my head around it either. See, I was a baby myself (19) when I had Ethan - we are the best team!

This little guy keeps me on my toes and fascinated every day! Little Jack is the best fun, exhausting but brilliant!

I had a massive meeting for work this week and kicked arse! I was so proud of myself that i documented the whole day starting with a hot selfie pic

I even surprised myself with my photography - especially when i found that the below photo of the Melbourne CBD buildings looked like a love heart. Does it?

Only in Melbourne can you find the below caption in front of a cafe

And my gorgeous little sister had her baby shower on the weekend! I must say, we look pretty damn good in this pic!

and the cupcakes! OMG you can just taste them right?

So I think we're pretty much up to date with all the little happenings in my world.

Oh, and for your sensory, viewing and humour pleasure - check out my entry for the "First International Lip Syncing Awards" hosted by Edenland. I assure you 9 minutes of complete entertainment!

Till next time.ox

Do not write blog post when you have had a couple of wines

It's been a bad day. Not a travesty, but a day of anxiety, overload of emotions, countless puffs from many a ciggies and all in all just a bleh. Where the fuck has 2020 gone? How did we get from free world to lockdown and oppressions and wearing masks???? I burnt my 2020 planner, close with my 2020 diary, because why the fuck, hey? Let's just write this year off as a mistake on a humanity scale and start fresh in 2021. Funnily enough, I bought a $4 2021 diary. So there may be hope. My beloved is struggling. Which means that I am struggling, Seeing him in pain, no sleep, swelling joint agony, depression and all the things that entail chronic illness. I'm at a loss as to how to help him, I just sit and be with him and tell him every day that i will be by his side till the rest of my days. At least 2020 has shown us this: What actually is important in our life, What actually matters, like really really matters, The latest model car o...

I had a hysterectomy at 37 years of age

This coming Wednesday will mark four weeks since my hysterectomy. It has been a long journey coming – this hysterectomy and with all the ailments that I had experienced over the last 20 years, including low grade cervical cancer, I could not have been happier seeing my uterus ripped out and put in the bin. That said, I am grateful that these organs allowed me to birth my two sons. They are the joys and absolute headaches of my life. I would (like most mothers I am sure) take a bullet for them and they always know that sanctuary of any sort will always be home for them. But a hysterectomy at 37 you say? Yes, I do admit that Google will tell you that this surgery is quite early in my life, but after two decades of agony, constant pain, bloating to the size of looking like I am six months pregnant and the fact that I had finished have all the children that I desired, it really was a no brainer. We live in rural Victoria. Our main town, Mildura has a hospital, and I was aware that ...

Is it Saturday or Sunday?

It is just before 6am as I sit here on my back porch watching the sun slowly rise for another day. What day is it? #isolyf has got me all confused to the day, date and month. With so many of us wishing and wanting “more time”, I have found myself getting bored of being bored and the motivation bug seems to come in slower and less frequently. How the world has changed in the unprecedented times, hey? It seems that here in #straya, we have quickly adapted to the powers that be and in the matter of weeks have become accustomed to the lack of interaction and movement. Does that concern you? How quickly we have been able to conform? I had to delete Facebook off my phone a few weeks ago as I was constantly checking #scomo and Googling “coronavirus” every other minute. The information overload brought on confusion as well as fear and I was working around feeling like doomsday was coming. The best thing that I did was switch off. The establishment news was only regurgitating stupidity ...
