taking a break from blogging

Hi everyone. There has been so much going on in my life of late that I have really been struggling to keep up with my blogging. I don't just want to be writing post and then not having the time to check out your blog's so I am going to be taking a break from blogging for a while until things are a little less hectic. This way I should hopefully have time to come and check out your post still :) I am not sure how long the break will be for now but hopefully I will be back again before to long.
Love and hugs Joss xxx

Celebrate the small stuff



It's Friday and that means it's time to celebrate the small stuff. :)

I've not been very active in the blogosphere of late. There has just been so much going on what with Nano and the loss of our wonderful rottie hooch. I'm just starting now to try and get back on track. 

So I guess the first celebration today is for brushing myself off, taking a deep breath and moving forward :)

I would also like to celebrate completing the 50k word count for Nano a couple of days ahead of target. I really didn't think I was going to make it this year due to a lack of writing after my baby died but I somehow managed to pull myself together enough to get it done.


In life we have some amazing souls come into our world. My dog Hooch was one of those such souls. He helped change so many peoples opinions about Rottweilers and was truly the gentlest and most loving dog you could ever hope to meet. I guess God has really been in need of angels this last couple of months as so many lovely souls have gone to heaven, including Paul Walke, his poor friend Roger Rodas and just last night the amazing Nelson Mandela. So I would also like to celebrate the amazing souls that touch our lives, either as our pets, friends, family, actors who entertain us or amazing individuals who inspire us. 
R.I.P to all those who have gone home to God you will all be greatly misses.

Life can be so fleeting and we have to make the best of each day, doing what we can to stay positive. I am so lucky to have some amazing friends who help me to keep smiling and so I'd also like to take the time to celebrate friendship and companionship, both online and offline.




 


So that's my celebrations this week, what's yours?
