Some days I think I am crazy when I try to take on too much, but then I have this great feeling of satisfaction. You just have to balance things...I find you need to ensure there is a motivational fit with anything you do. And to get out and about as much as you can, even if it is a day trip or short trips to the country - everyone needs it.<br /><br />Wishing you a great week and keep smiling.<br /><br />Michelle<br /></div>Flourishing Networkshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17629223555070644555noreply@blogger.com5tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7524506674909921272.post-11531112726362967572011-09-12T10:03:00.003+08:002011-09-13T07:23:56.250+08:00Breakfast - Wild Poppy<div style="text-align: center;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiuYvIWSED2P57iyGmq6ZvO7A3SA3TjcFyCRfYnD2q_OK3smA63rkU0q6VtdH8-M5gZzzmtYv17mWwbBy_BK-zi-regft0PGiEuw3NOSJG4H2jVboGgjP25VfksWToKfC6rTKi0THZenb4/s1600/IMG_0933.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiuYvIWSED2P57iyGmq6ZvO7A3SA3TjcFyCRfYnD2q_OK3smA63rkU0q6VtdH8-M5gZzzmtYv17mWwbBy_BK-zi-regft0PGiEuw3NOSJG4H2jVboGgjP25VfksWToKfC6rTKi0THZenb4/s400/IMG_0933.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5651288053084766690" border="0" /></a><span style="font-weight: bold;">Wild Poppy</span> in Fremantle is the number one breakfast restaurant.
