First day of year 1

Isabelle with her best friend Sofia having marshmallows that I brought to celebrate the first day of school 

And 7 weeks later.....

School starts tomorrow. Aargghh finally! This might have been the longest summer of my life! With two little monkeys, work, digital marketing assignment project, bloody migraines, feeling exhausted all the tiime, plus horrible British weather that pulls me down even further!

Energy, please come and find me

my funny valentine(s)

Today was Isabelle's last day in reception class. Well done my clever girl. She had a great year developing some very impressive skills and knowledge and strong friendships.

And the same goes for mummy!

May be I had ambitions in the past, but today all I want is to be able to remove that huge sticky bogey out of Amelie's tiny nose!

Now is the time!

Dengeler bozulmasin. Hicbirsey ve hickimse ihmal edilmesin. Kizlarim mutsuz olmasin. Ben hazir olmadigim yuklerin altina girmiyim. Kendime olan guvenim yavas yavas tazelensin. Degisim baslasin! Vakit geldi!

I signed my job contract this morning. I will work as a Marketing Account Manager for a Marketing Agency 3 days a week 9:30-14:30 starting next Monday. I am still amazed that they accepted all my terms though it took a while. I have got exactly what I wanted. Sounds too good to be true at this point but time will tell.

Come on mummy be brave!

Miss Saigon

I saw the 25th anniversary revival of Miss Saigon in London yesterday. It was fantastic! heartbreaking! emotionally drenching! amazing! I cried my eyes out but loved it! May be in another 25 years you can see it too my little drama queens.do not miss it. 

Uyusun da buyusun ninni, tipis tipis yurusun ninni:)

Yarim Istanbul. Vuslata az kaldi:)

Love love love deeply madly love

Cocuk da yaparim kariyerde?

Just got back from an interview. The role is located 5 miles ( 8km) from home, part-time ( 3 days/w), good match with my marketing skills and knowledge, possibly the only one of its kind. Of course I got nervous and sounded like a looser but, Fingers crossed! Hope they call me back for the second interview.Why is it always two or even three interviews these days? It used to be just one back in the olden days:)

 

Amelie is walking!!!!

Happy Birthday Isabelle!

Happy birthday my lovely girl. Five years ago you made me a mother. Since the moment I had you, I have spent (and I know I will spend) every day of my life trying to make you happy. And this will make me happy. I love you and will always do. Xxx

let it go

I feel stuck in a bubble of comfort, where my dreams and ambitions died and I am not able to produce new ones. Need to get out and find new challenges. Let go of me you stupid bubble of comfort!

Yes, it is that time of the year again.Birthday No.5 is here
