One of my friends has had a really hard time recently. She recently lost her mother (why do we say that? Even if she was a child and had got separated in a shop…she wouldn’t have lost her mother…it‘s the other way round). Having “lost” her mum she is now who everyone in her family turns to. Her father is quite forgetful & rather than stress him any ( Read more... )

Well the dating site is fun…apparently I’ve paid for another month…sneaky..…I can see how some people get addicted to time on the pc. Contact was at a steady pace until I was brave enough to put my photo on….I was getting a little worried at how much I enjoyed my voyeur side (think she/he’s called Sam)…something exciting about looking & reading ( Read more... )

Yesterday I answered the ‘phone to find a man asking for my youngest son. I explained that he was at work….he then introduced himself (he was a friend’s ex) & (without realising who I was)...delved straight into a sales pitch for why my son needed a personal trainer…he wants to be a fireman. I waited until he was finished & then said,

“ John…it’s ( Read more... )

Ok - Let the games commence. Only bluffing not feeling that brave.
I was visiting a friend & discussing new ways to restart love & life. Before I realised what was happening I was on a dating site with my friend practically pulling my bankcard from my purse. She got all excited & thought that this was a wonderful idea - would she do it??
No....never ( Read more... )

Thank God no-one was testing my street/work cred today. Anyway I must do bluffing really well - either that or I’ve got a split personality . Now there’s a thought….Would I know if my personality was split?.... Would one of me know?…..What names could I have?....Saskia, Gabrielle, Bambi~~~~Bambi!!! - ok nice thoughts, nice thoughts…I’m starting to ( Read more... )

A day at home to clean & catch up on odd jobs oh & water dead plants. There's not all dead just the newish ones on the wall hangers. ok they're not that new but how am I supposed to remember them if they're under a year old. Don't know if they'll recover - they look much older just now - & shrivelled.
Anyway the car's in the drive & spotted by the ( Read more... )

Today is the day to get more organised. . . ok lesson 1 - don't start reading everything that you find!

I was sorting through my diaries - enough said about that the better. Anyway I came accross a poem that I wrote last year - cover blown - now you will know how old I am.

Anyway it's about time I started listening to myself. New life starts this ( Read more... )

I'm off work this week for a well earned rest - well a rest from work but I've got a to do list as long as my arm (which is quite sore- not from the weight of the list). It could be from gripping the wine glass too tightly as the doorman played tug of war but I realIy don't think it would have taken this long to develop.
Time to deal with the list ( Read more... )

WAYHAY!!!

I've done it. I always wondered how people got blogs. I'm so new to this that any pointers are welcome.. . . that is if anyone ever finds me or is interested enough to read my ramblings.

I thought that it would be quick once I had started then. . . wow. . . . . did anyone else take ages to pick a theme? I started analysing how others would ( Read more... )
