  • New job

    I had the first day in my new job today and it went very well although it is a change of role for me and there is a lot to take in and figure out before I will become comfortable with it. Although my qualifications are in youth work and that is what I have been dong until now, the closure of some ce...
  • I lied!!

    I had to get up at 4am not 5, oh the price of beauty!! (Well, looking reasonably okay on a dark night then, lol).The session went well though and I know I have had laser before, I can feel and see the results very quickly. My face is so smooth there isn't a trace of hair and it's never been that goo...
  • More electrolysis

    Tomorrow is a good/bad day. Good because I have another electrolysis appointment. Bad because it means getting up at 5am, with 36 hours hair on my face, driving for 3 hours, going through some pain and finally ending up with a face like raw meat for a few days, lol. It takes me about a week before I...
  • A sleepless night, or two.

    Once again imsomnia strikes, I think I have had about six hours sleep all weekend. Urgh! I get imsomnia from time to time anyway but this weekend was worse for some reason, and now I am just feeling so tired. You would think that being so tired would ensure a good night's sleep but it doesn't work t...
  • A new role here

    Katie in either her wisdom or desparation has recently appointed me to the role of 'Forums Supremo' or words to that effect. Basically, I will take over the role occupied so successfully by Sarah Connor and will oversee all of the forums and appoint the necessary moderators. I'm really looking forwa...
  • Back from surgery.........again!

    This could really get to be monotonous if it wasn't for the fact that the end result will be worth it!I have a very sore and bruised eye as I had to undergo another operation on the eyelids, nothing serious just pure vanity about my looks. The first attempt didn't work at all so they had another go ...
  • A sort of apology

    I realised that my last blog was a little downhearted which is not a mood I like to find myself in, although even I can't be 100% bubbly all the time! That's also why I chose to put it in here instead of in the forums, that's not the place to have a personal gripe. I was upset to see people leaving ...
  • The Exodus

    It seems every day I log in, someone else has decided to leave. I have lost so many friends this year that I really don't know why I bother to keep coming here any longer. Okay, I haven't lost my friends, we still chat on IM or email but there has been a mass exodus this year, and like a road full o...
  • A quiet week

    Finally, a quiet week, the first one since July actually, apart from my little weekend in Paris. I got so much done this week it was amazing. The house has been cleaned thoroughly from top to bottom, the garden has been cut back and readied for the winter, I caught up with pieces of work I had to ge...
  • You DO have to mad to live with them!

    Carren and Danique that is.Actually, they are, of course, lovely girls and very friendly and hospitable. I stayed with them last weekend and had a very nice relaxing time, which I needed. We just had some nice walks and good food, (they are both very handy in the kitchen by the way),watched some mov...
