A new chapter.

Good morning bloggers.

I have been super busy recently, but that's all about to change. I've made some changes and I'm really looking forwards to them all fitting in place.

The biggest change I have made is the decision to resign as assistant cub leader. For 6 years I have been volunteering with the scout association, a fantastic organisation which provides thousands of opportunities for millions of youths. Although I have only ever been an assistant, I have ran 3 different sections ranging from ages 8 to 18. Which is very difficult for someone with no experience with children or scouting. I found it very stressful and this was not helped by the parents whom appeared to have very little amount of respect for me and my hard work despite what I gave up for their children. I felt alot of the time also some of the other leaders expected far too much of me as well.

So I have decided to take a break, which will more than likely be in definite, and now I have so much spare time.

I can blog again! I find blogging a great way to relax, which I really need right now.

I am in the process of buying my first house with Shane. We have been together now for 4.5 years and have decided to move in together, it's all very exciting but also very stressful! Moving is supposed to be one of the most stressful activities you can do in your life. That mixed with Cubs right now is a bit too much.

So, there we have 2 very big changes in my life, and what better way than to start a new chapter, for me :).

In lieu of the changes in my life I have made a bucket list, which I wish to share with you and you can follow me on this exciting journey. I have split my list into two, places I wish to go, and things I wish to do.
