Day 6 to 8

Sorry Wego Health Challenge, I'm rolling three days into one. Its not cheating I swear!

I escaped to our Lake House for three days with the family over Easter and upon first discovery that we couldn't seem to get the internet all weekend, I was a bit frustrated (and a tad panic that I temporarirly could particpate int he blogging challenge!). But then I realised it was a blessing in disguise. What's one to do with no internet and limited phone reception????? Stop to smell the roses, breathe in the fresh air and quality time with the family of course! AND I'm pretty sure WEGO would agree that the break was very very healthy (a few easter eggs aside).


I did however prepare a little health haiku as asked for on Day 6. See if you can guess what's first on my mind every morning!

Every morning
There you are, first and foremost
What number will be? 

Every morning
Wrip the stirp and finger prick
how much do I need?


Then Day 7 we could write about whatever we wanted! bummed I missed out!!

Day 8: What was the best conversation I had all week? Hmmmmm It was such a busy week and this question makes me stop and realise how many people I speak with in one week about sooo many different things! Thinking back over the last seven days, I've have to stand up for myself and defend my choices and  personal character (more than once!), I've got supper excited when talking about a new project, had several serious discussion relating to the future direction of my workplace, conducted group meetings to implement new ideas and strategies, given a speech off the cuff to a room of thirty people, meet several new faces - both professionally and personally and even connected with people from my past. I've had hard conversations with those suffering from cancer and had open conversations on the ups and downs of life with people who I now no longer can call complete strangers.

I can't tell you what the best conversation I had all week was, but I can say thank you to Wego for making me take the time to reflect on all the people who filled my life in just the last seven days. Life is amazing.
