Rocking your world friday!

Hello Friday rockers!

 I have had a great week, loads of things rocking my world at the moment!

• My homemade meal plan is working very well. I have done weekly menus for the next month, one to save us money on shopping and two, because my daughter and husband are such fussy eaters and I am fed up with cooking 3/4 different meals a night. On the 1st Jan I told my daughter that these were the meals I was cooking, if she didn't eat them she would go hungry and also that there would be no sweets or crisps during the week. There was moaning and much huffing and sighing but She has eaten every meal I have cooked even things such as cottage pie and spag bol. We have always had problems with her eating (learnt behaviour from her Dad and his fussy ways I think!) and it got to the point where all she would eat is frozen proccessed c**p like sausages, burgers or pizza. A couple of months ago I swapped her onto veggie sausages and veggie chicken pieces as I felt that was a healthier option and for the last two weeks she has done amazingly well with her eating, I am so proud of her!

 And here she is in her new Big Bang Theory T-shirt which she bought with her xmas money. She wanted to be like her brother who has several Big Bang t-shirts! (we are huge Big Bang fans!)

• My Somerset studio art journal magazine finally showing up and the hour or so peace and quiet I had last night to pour over it!
• My lovely friend Paige who spent all of sunday afternoon and monday evening helping me to design my positive affirmation cards on the computer. I had spent a while trying to do it but couldn't get them quite right so whizz that she is on the technical side of things, she sorted them out in no time! They looked great but printing them at home wasn't giving me the results I wanted so Paige suggested that I get them printed from moo.com so she also uploaded them to there for me. So Big hugs and thanks to Paige this week! They have just arrived today and I am so pleased with them.

 Affirmation cards

• Seeing the Logo I was commissioned to design in print on my friends buisness cards has really rocked my world! They have had some really positive comments about it as well which is great. They were really specific with what they wanted the design to look like ( a person in the yoga 'tree' pose emerging from a lotus flowers with branches around it!) so I am glad I managed to achieve that for them.

They are having a launch party next week to officially open their buisness. It is called The Lotus Tree and it is a yoga studio and healing room where you can have all sorts of holistic treatments. They have also agreed to sell my affirmation cards and have enquired about some of my art for their treatment room!

As a gift for them I kept the original drawing I did of the logo and I have mounted and framed it for them, I really hope they like it!

• My Son Caleb who is 14, getting an A* in his GCSE chemistry exam! He came home with the result yesterday so then I spent an hour phoning all my family and close friends to brag about it!!!! I am so proud of him, he is an absolute star at school and works so hard to get good grades.
• Just being thankful for what I have. Joining rocking your world has really encouraged me to be more positive and to remember the little things that have made my week great. I do thank my deities daily for the blessings I have been given but its so nice to write them down somewhere as well in a list so I can look back and say' my Goddess, I have had a good week havn't I?'

If you want to join up with other rockers head over to Virginias blog.

I hope you all have had a good week too!
