"My hair, flow it, show it..."

Yes this blog is titled with a line from the song "Hair" , not a song I sing often and funnily enough the song talks about the opposite to what I've done because I have cut OFF my hair!!! Yes this is the most crazy thing I've done in the past week and a half haha!! No really it has been 10 years since I last gave my hair a really good cut up to a bob. I am very happy with it and can't believe how much lighter it is (I did cut off over 20cms so considerably different!). 


So anyway, I hope this finds you well and can't believe its already half way through March. In Adelaide we call it Mad March because we have so many festivals and events happening in the city and surrounds but it is a great time of the year. The end of February for me was finishing up the Fringe show I did "Pirates of Penzance on the Popeye". We had a fabulous time, the audiences loved it and although it was extremely hot weather to work in, we didn't melt!

So what's next?  Well Easter is coming in a couple of weeks and so Soul Factor Gospel Choir are putting on their Easter concert "Were it not for Grace" the week before. This year it is on Sunday 29th March at 7:30pm and will be a wonderful night of music. The songs are some of our favourite Easter pieces along with new ones linked with prose and so it will take you through the story of Easter via music.
I really encourage you to come along if you can, you will not be dissappointed.

So besides getting ready for the concert I am also getting ready for my trip overseas!! Yes after Easter myself, Dad and Mum are heading to France, then London and then Turkey. Yesterday I recieved my passes to the Gallipoli Centenary Dawn Service and Lone Pine Service for Anzac Day. Its getting pretty exciting and starting to become real. I feel so blessed to have the opportunity to travel but then to be there at the place that so many gave their lives so that I can live in this amazing country. We will be also heading along the Western Front in France so that we can experience that part as well, so it will very moving I believe. I do love travelling and I think some of the most exciting parts is the getting ready and planning, not so much the paying haha!! but it should be a great trip.

So that caps off some interesting weeks and highlights the coming weeks! I was laughing with friends as so far this year I have gotten a tattoo and cut off my hair and its only March!! What else is going to happen??

Have a great week!

A Dream is a wish your heart makes....

A dream is a wish you heart makes... Do you have a dream? something that you want your life to be? or somewhere you want to go? Are you reaching for it? I have had a dream to be a Mary Kay Director since I joined the company 10 years ago and this month I took a huge step to achieving this. On October 1st I entered into DIQ or Director in Qualification, I now have 4 months to become a Director. I am very excited about this, the timing seemed right and when I do it I will be able to do just Mary Kay and Singing which will be perfect! It is rather scary though because there is a lot of work to be done in those four months, I have to build my team and reach certain production goals and sometimes it seems crazy, but that's the idea of moving up isn't it? taking a leap of faith? So why Directorship you ask? I understand leadership is not for everyone but I have always been drawn to it. I do have a passion for helping women feel good about themselves and I believe that we are...

Turkish and Other Delights! Part Two...

And so the story of the trip continues here Part One can be found here ! So we arrived in Istanbul on Tuesday 21st April 2015 and as I said in the previous post we were struck by how many people there were and how crazy the driving was but luckily we were picked up by our tour company, Travelshop Turkey. We did make it to our hotel, The Green Park Hotel, safely and this hotel seemed quite nice. We did find it weird we didnt know anything about our start time in the morning or anything else from our tour but the guy at the desk did say that they were rather unorganised and not to worry, he'd let us know. Dancers on the boat Our first experience began that night began with a Bosphorus River and Dinner Cruise (to be honest we didn't quite know what to expect), people had said that it was great to cruise on the Bosphorus and see Istanbul from the water. Well we got picked up along with some others we didn't know and headed to our boat. Well this night was an experience!...

2018 Celebration!!

2018 has really been an amazing year.  When I look back on what I've actually done this year it is actually quite crazy but I've enjoyed every minute of it.  There have been times of difficulty and real stress when things didn't go to plan but God has blessed me so abundantly and really allowed me to use my gifts to share with people and to create a life that is really full of joy. So at the beginning of this year, I actually said I was gonna have a quieter year and that turned out to not be true in the slightest. But it has been amazing!  So this year, I have done Oklahoma on a Farm twice, played Princess Fiona in an SA Premiere of Shrek (plus learned to tap dance), done a Bee Gee's Tribute with my sisters, climbed aboard a Pirate Ship many times, been a Siamese Twin in SideShow the Musical, been an Ice & Fire Queen, learnt and performed many Elvis songs, sang on a Cruise Ship,  sang on the radio 4 times, perfomed in concerts, gigs, dinne...
