The Best Things in Life Are Free

A difficult thing for me about being in my 40s is the lack of excitement in my life. My life is great and I am very blessed with what I have but it's pretty depressing that there's no new experiences that give me a natural high.

In my teens and twenties life was full of new and amazing things that thrilled me:- first kiss, falling in love, backpacking Europe, going to Bermuda, seeing some of the wonders of the world, hash with Heineken in Amsterdam, the Ibiza life as a rep to name but a few.  Career goals have been achieved, I married the love of my life and gave birth to a beautiful baby girl. 

Life excitements are now channelled through my daughter Charlotte and life is amazing again. I have so much to look forward to with Charlotte and Ben. Even work is great as I compete to be the Number 1 consultant in the company.

The Bank Holiday weekend was stunning.  We walked behind a waterfall, descended 600 steps and climbed back up again and hid in sand dunes. Charlotte ate fish and chips for the first time and helped build her first bonfire as the sun went down, toasting marsh mellows and enjoying that melt in the mouth feeling.

I am so lucky.
