Happy Sunday Fun Day everyone!  What did you get up to today?  I hope you have had as wonderful a day as I have!  I had a day out on the water with some beautiful friends today and I enjoyed it immensely!  I have a group of friends who I don’t get to see all the time, so we plan a get together every 6 weeks or so to catch up.  A lot of the time we go out for dinner, but we are always open to try something new and this time we hired a BBQ boat.  We all rocked up at 8:30 this morning, eskies in tow.  The owner drove the boat out of the dock and then let our designated skipper “Captain Tammy” take over.  Once we had gotten out into the main waterway he hopped in his dinghy, went off on his way and we had until 3:30pm to explore to our hearts content.

Today I saw the beautiful Gold Coast from a whole new angle.  I got to cruise along the waterways beside roads that I have driven on many times.  It was lovely to see things from a different perspective and refreshed in my mind that a lot of the time life is the same……sometimes we need to look at things from different angles.  We all had a great time.  We cruised along, pulled into a beach and hopped off to do a coffee run to a café close by.  Hopped back on the boat and explored a bit more until it was time for lunch.  Dropped anchor, ate, drank and had a good old natter.  Some of us jumped off the boat and had a swim.  Some of us just dangled our legs in the water, waving at other people as they passed by in their boats.  We played music, danced, sang…..it was just perfect for the soul!  A big thank you to my beautiful friends….you know who you are….and also to Gold Coast BBQ Boat Hire. If you want a great day out, I highly recommend you check them out! I’m pretty sure this photo shows what a good time we were having!

I am back at home now, reflecting on a wonderful day spent with wonderful people.  I feel refreshed, revitalised and even more awesome than I usually feel!  I have been reminded today that we can absolutely overcome anything if the desire is big enough.  I have known that for a long time, but it always good to be reminded!

So what is the point of my blog today?  I guess there are 2 points really.  Firstly, it is important to take time out.  Many of us lead really busy lives.  Work, business, family……sometimes the merry-go-round of life seems never ending.  So MAKE it stop.  Make a conscious effort to take time out to do whatever makes you feel good.  Regularly!  I promise you that you will get a whole lot more done if you take time out to re-energise and revitalise YOU!  Secondly, it can be beneficial to look at things from different angles and perspectives.  Food for thought?  Anyway, that is enough of my ramblings for today.  It is almost time for movie night with my beautiful daughter.  A perfect end to a perfect day!  Have a great week everyone!!
