Day 18 - 20 Season 4:)

[Zara]

I haven't blogged for a few days as I have been leaving it too late again. I worked on Sunday but forgot to check the trains till the morning and there was no trains going to the station where I work so I rang my friend who I work with and she said she'll pick me up from a station half way there. She drove us to work and we had a good day at work. She dropped me off at the station near where she lives and after waiting 20 minutes my train was cancelled. The next one was an hour later but then it suddenly snowed like crazy and a lot trains were getting cancelled. I met a french lady in the waiting room and she was going to where I live and wanted to get a cab. It would of been really expensive getting a cab from London so I suggested us getting a train closer to where we live. We chatted on the train all the way and got to know about each others lives. We got to the station and found out the other train to where I live was cancelled so we ordered a cab. While we were waiting for the cab a man also wanted a cab to near where we were going so we got chatting to him and all got the cab together. He was really nice and we were all chatting like we've known each other before. The cab cost a lot but we split it three ways which saved us a lot of money. It took me 4 hours to get home from work but I was so grateful for meeting them people as it made part of the journey enjoyable.

Monday we were snowed in so there was no trains for my partner to go work and my daughters school was shut so we had a lazy day in. We took the kids in the garden to play in the snow and had a snowball fight which was fun.

Today I spent most of the day cleaning as I didn't do any yesterday. My partner managed to get a train to London to work and my daughters school was open. My partner was late coming home which meant I couldn't go to my jewellery class but lucky enough my tutor rang me to say the class was cancelled.

I feel like I haven't been focusing on my goals and intentions lately and going too much with the flow so I intend to focus more and organise my time working on my goals.

These are the five things I am grateful for in the last few days:

1. Having the opportunity to work and earn good money

2. Meeting those two lovely people on my way home and sharing a cab with them

3. My wonderful friend for picking me up from the station and giving me a lift to work

4. My partner for getting into work today with all the train disruptions

5. My friends on this site for all their wonderful encouraging comments:)

Hi Zara, I truly believe you are always meeting new and interesting people in your life because you draw them to you with your wonderful energy. How great that something that could have potentially been such an annoying situation turned into something so pleasant for you! You seem to be enjoying work a lot and its admirable to see how easily you manage to balance your career with your family life and are able to enjoy both so fully. PJ
