Life goes on

A new day, a new year, a new life...life goes on. We are never sure of what the future has in store for us, but when life gets you down, you have to pick yourself up, put your big girl panties on, and go on. And just when you think you have everything under control, you fall again, and again, you have to pick yourself up....and go on!
Well that is basically has been the story of my life for the last few years. My life has changed dramatically over the last few years, and although, at times,it has been a major struggle, I am slowly getting there.
After a difficult divorce in 2009, three years ago I got a second chance at love! I have watched my boys mature into wonderful loving young men, and I put myself back behind a school desk, and qualified (again) as a nurse. (My South African qualifications were not recognised in Finland). I am back where I started as far as careers goes, following my passion as a nurse, and have secured a permanent job, community nursing with the aged on the island. And along the way, I have discovered many new talents and have had great fun discovering them. I have found a love for decorating, re purposing, refinishing and building furniture. Recently I bought myself a camera, and although I am still completely USELESS, I am having fun learning to work it.
So in short.... in my new blog, I am aim to share snippets of my life with you.
