Nearly 31

Tomorrow I will be 31! To think ten years ago I was planning my 21st birthday party. Now I am planning  a quiet night in with my husband and a bottle of red wine. There was actually some minor preparation before tomorrow - one of which was colouring over my grey hair, the other sipping cider in front of the open fire and while the kids read me their readers from school.

Last year I was a little scared of turning 30. But, a big life changing, light bulb moment had already shifted over me at least 12 months before that and I felt pretty good about where I was at that moment. I have done a lot of things in the past 12 months: moved to Castlemaine, got married, participated in a micro business course and opened 'the reclaimed room.' They are just a few of the highlights, there have been some low lights but really I think I can cope with things better these days. If I didn't have my hubby it would be a lot harder - he is the best father and the best partner.

I am hoping the next twelve months will be just as eventful. I am hoping 'the reclaimed room' takes off and people will enjoy it as much as I do. It's really a satisfying feeling knowing what I have done so far. I have also got a small writing part in a local zine recently which has helped me focus on why I love my town so much.

My hubby and I are 2 years and 2 days apart when it comes to our birthdays. So to celebrate we are going to 'groovin the moo' in Bendigo. We are so excited to see Kimbra, 360, City and colour, Matt Corby and many more awesome bands.
