How To Play Bin Jenga

How to play Bin Jenga .

It is the latest craze sweeping the nation and it is very simple to play., You don't require a lot to play it , but oh the fun you will have.


You will need

1. A Bin that is slowly building up with rubbish.

2. Be the last one to go to place rubbish in the bin and if it doesn't balance you win / though I reality you've lost.

See I told you the rules were so simple and you can be an instant winner!


Also in the same serious of games is put the toilet roll on the holder 

and out next year is the game put the toilet paper the right way.


If you need me I'll be emptying the bin.

Disclosure no family members were harmed in this blog post but there was a stiff talking to and no fracas was involved.

Countryside Is The Minds Harmony

What gives you serenity after a bad day ?

What stops you blowing

 everything out of all proportation ?

I like life on a even keel just tootling along , occasionally yes I will venture out to the big smoke and lose my self in an museum or an event , but my heart compass sets me back to the countryside. I have had what I can only describe as 2 irksome days. Which has made me realise that I need to be less cavlaier in my trust of people and perhaps I am too friendly I bounce in like a Labrador if I am honest.  I am more people's cup of tea than I realise and quite frankly I could have spiralled down after the last 2 days but I didn't, I do however have to get stuff out of my system by talking it out. 

Countryside is my salvation.

Countryside is the minds harmony.

Friendship has always been hard for me and being trusted I have come to realise is a coping mechanism for this, some friends are for the long haul and some are for pockets of time. Not everyone can be your friend or will be your friend and I don't expect that.

I have forever friends I really do and I know I can trust them with my heart but I will be more guarded that is for sure. It is a shame to lose a friend and you never know what battle someone is fighting , hell I know I am. I do have a lot going on in my life and I hold my hands up and have asked for the help I need.

I have come so far since last year and I am not going back no way.

My heart may still be on my sleeve but I will choose to out it there.

And this is not a needy post , neither am I playing the victim I am striving for me. I may stumble but believe me when I say I will not fall.

How Do You Measure Yourself ?

How Do you measure yourself ?

I don't mean measuring yourself height wise , I mean do you measure yourself against other people?,  it is something I do with extreme caution as your can walk the thin line with your confidance and I am not the jealous type .I always try to be the best I can be and I really don't like to have any situation unresolved.

Healthy competition is good but don't let it overtake your life and worse still your kids life , now I don't have the competive aspect of the playground to deal with. 

My values is one thing I don't measure against other people , and whilst I am quite open in my blogging I do hold back . They say you should never work with animals or children , well I'm a teaching assistant and I have cats so that didn't quite go to plan.


Also I measure myself in tea levels as if I don't have enough tea I really can not function very well.
