10 Moments of Despair

1. Running out of coffee
2. When someone says "Pacific" when they mean "Specific". These people are also usually those who don't know the difference between "they're", "there" and "their"
3. When Ex's just don't get it and won't give up
4. When football isn't about football, but about religion
5. Losing someone's number
6. Seeing babies eating fast food and drinking fizzy drinks
7. When people ignore their car alarm. Why does your car have an alarm? Just to wake the street up at 2am?
8. The bad reputation Feminism has, when people think it's all man-haters who think women should be the dominant sex. This is feminism: Feminism on Wikipedia
9. People who think using big words makes them interesting, even though they have nothing valid to say
10. This. Really really sad news.

10 Moments of Wonder

1. Falling asleep holding the hand of your beloved and waking up still holding on
2. Watching a cat enjoy a box
3. Hearing a song you'd forgotten you adored
4. Standing under the shower long after you've finished scrubbing, just enjoying the warmth and peace
5. Seeing a friend you hadn't spoken to for over a year, but loving them more than you ever did before
6. The first cup of tea after a bacon sandwich
7. Meeting your heroes and finding they're as awesome as you'd hoped
8. Seeing a baby in a fit of giggles
9. A freshly tidied home
10. A new pair of shoes

Lost Without Her

I'm currently going a bit insane. 


My mum's abroad seeing family and sorting out some family affairs. She's away for 3 weeks. I think we're on week 2 now, but it's already felt like 2 months. The next week is going to feel like a year. 


I never realise how huge a part of my life my mum is until she's away. I don't feel like I speak to her that regularly, but every day since she's been away I've wanted desperately to phone her. I keep picking up my phone, realising, and then almost weeping. 


I talk to her about most things, and I phone her when I want to clarify my thoughts, want to rant about something  or when I just want to talk to my Mummy. 


I think this is an exercise of learning to appreciate her more when I do have her in the same country. 
With Mother's Day coming up, I think I'm going to have to make a big deal of it...
