So I’m doing that #fmsphotoaday thing from Fat Mom Slim as a
reminder mostly to be looking out for things as I’m rushing to work, from work,
on errands, around the house…rushing rushing rushing. It’s a word or phrase a
day that reminds me to really slow down a little and look at things more.
Yesterday’s picture was ‘five years ago’…and it amazed me to
think that five years ago I was freshly deported from the UK due to losing my
job and as a result my visa. The recession (at least in London) was in full
swing and I was 4,707 miles away from my fiancé. My life was in total turmoil.
I was miserable and exited, sad to be away from London and happy to be home, I
was separated from my life in London and my future husband…and also planning
our wedding and our future together. It was a weird time for me.
Five years later feels like no time and tons of time has
passed. I’m married (twice…to the same man), have a tiny human I’m responsible
for, have changed jobs twice and bought a house to name a few things!
I’m bad at ‘reflecting’ – at looking back…I’m so focused on
forward, it is something I think I should take time to do more of.
