a warped view

what makes you different from everyone else Well I think it would be hard to find something about myself that no one in the world had/did the same so I will just list some of the things that I think make me special My spotty brown eye (@annecdotal_anna has one too, can't think of a nicer lady to share an abnormal eye with), my ability to focus on the positives 99% of the time, my belief and trust in the universe, my ability to give people my complete trust despite having been hurt so many times in the past, my desire to see everyone feel good about themselves and believe, as I do, that everyone is special and valuable, my tendency to put others before myself, to help whenever help is needed without a second thought, my loyalty, my sense of humour and ability to laugh at myself, my resilience and my determination to keep getting up and doing my best. I think all of that makes me pretty special and sets me apart from a lot of people in this mixed up world of ours.

someone you see yourself marrying or being with in the future Well today's post seems a bit redundant really doesn't it?! Seeing as I am married to Alan and extremelly happy and in love with him. I suppose I could use this as an opportunity to expose a deep dark secret.  One day, when Ally has has a sex change so she and Seb can be gay together I hope to lure her away from him with my vagina! There, I said it! I feel so relieved!

nicknames and why I have them My very first nickname was given to me by my cousin Maria's, at the time boyfriend, now husband Robert. For some reason he has always called my Tif-a billy or just Billy. I'm not really sure how or why he started calling me this as I was 4 or 5 at the time. I came down to Perth with my Nanna for a visit and we stayed at my Aunty Dot's (Maria's Mum). At the time Maria was living at her Mum's house and studying to be a teacher (or had just started teaching, I'm not sure which one) and Robert was around often visiting. I always get a warm feeling inside to this say when he still calls me Billy, even at thirty it still makes me smile that he cared enough about me to give me a special name that has stuck with me for so long. RObert and MAria are the only ones who use the nickname and I think its gives us a special sort of connection. I have been called lots of the nicknames you would expect over the years, Tif, Tiff, Tiffy, Tiffo and the...

plans/dreams/goals you have well plans, dreams and goals are all very different. Goals have to have time frames, be measurable yada yada yada, dreams are all up in the air and plans usually involve lots of to do lists. At the moment we are about to start 'landscaping' our front yard and putting up a fence so I suppose that is a plan. I would also like to construct a fish pond and vegetable garden in the backyard and Alan has started lists and has sketches and measurements for those so I guess they are a plan too. Once master 4 starts fulltime school next year I am going to aim to make my business bigger and busier so that would be a goal for next year, along with helping Alan to grow our Jim's Mowing Business that we are about to buy (let me know if you need any gardening done!!). As for dreams, I have hundreds! I want to Learn to draw and paint, do an acting class, perform in a play, learn to sing, go on holidays in every state of Australia, drive around Australia in a ca...

I haven't actually travelled much overseas, having a baby at 18 kind of grounded me. I have been to Singapore, L.A. And Aspen with my family when I was younger. There are so many places I would like to go, Cambodia, Nepal, Thailand, Bhutan, pretty much every country in Europe and the UK and while I am not overly keen on visiting America there are certain places in the U.S. I would like to go (New York, New Orleans and Florida). I am desperate to get out and explore the world but will have to put it off a bit longer until my kids are a bit older. I do have a dream of going to France with my husband shaped person for our tenth wedding anniversary (September 2012) Ask me anything... I have no filter!

Depends... If I have just introduced myself to you as Tiffany and you call me Tif straight away then I will get a little bit miffed. In terms of spelling/written down, when I use my short name I prefer Tif because a canadian boy called Tyler Edwards wrote me a note once and spelled it that way and I was in lust with him so its been that way ever since! But when you say it Tiff & TIf sound the same! Ask me anything... I have no filter!

well first I had a really shit time in high school and some bad stuff happened to me in my life but luckiliy my mum had raised me to trust in myself and the universe so I decided to try being awesome. I tried really really hard and then I was. Ask me anything... I have no filter!
