The decorating is coming along nicely and the new bedroom furniture is ordered. I really must clear my bed off if I am going to stand on it to decorate - almost fell off and broke my neck.

Last night was my try dive and oh my god - it was so brilliant. all the technical stuff was ok but swimming under the water was just fantastic - I really cant begin how to describe how liberating it was. Just swimming round was just so great - I have signed up for the course and will finish it in egypt or turkey - i now have two diving buddies - possibly a third......

life is just absolutely great at the moment....... it is so great being alive and being me

Well the week was busy - as they all are recently - can't wait for next week when at least i don't have to get up to an alarm. Thursday found me up at 4:30, in a cab at 5:45 and flying to belfast at 7:45. Dinner at 4 in Belfast and then back on plane to Leeds Bradford in the evening , being held over the airport because there was rather a lot of the white fluffy stuff and they didn't know if we could land - finally we did. Thena cab journey from Leeds to York, during which me and my team were almost killed, but we finally arrived in York at about 9 - wine and nibbles in my room and then a journey back from York friday evening. It seemed like we had been away ages.

Yesterday was spent mostlyin bed and then Lakeside. - I love Primark.

And today I have been sorting my room out for decorating - the first room and now that I am started the move seems all the more real

As for the love life well my vicar is intent on setting me up with someone and has found a nice chaplain for me. He is the Chaplain at a private school, single, my age and apparently enjoys a good pint - honestly I love my vicar to bits but really...............................

what a bizarre weekend!!

firslty there was the phone call from someone i met on facebook last august - we were playing poker and got chatting. he is a film producer (horror films) and although we tried to meet a couple of times it never quite happened. anyway we had a chat and it seems he is up in london later on this month and suggested we meet up.

then there was the ice skating - oh dear what a mistake. really you should go more than once every 24 years. i ended up flat on my back and with whiplash - it is still painful.

work is busy busy busy - i am very deserving of the pay rise that i am due to get at the end of this month. i am also becoming more confident about a new love interest - although i always am and they seem to dissolve into nothing - oh well lets wait and see.

so i missed the parents evening because i couldn't face the teachers wittering on about my son and his wasting of his ability. i went to my friends birthday bash and the guy she was trying to set me up with was soooooo boring i only managed to talk to him for 5 minutes. there was light relief provided in the form of a guy i had a bit of a fling with who thought i should go back to his - i politely declined. we had a laugh and he did manage to get snog out of me so he was reasonably happy.

then thursday we were off to cardiff which was interesting. out for dinner in the evening and a cardiff work colleague and one of his friends came along. the evening ended with both of them wanting to shag me - haha - what are men like, although it was a bit of a shock to find out that someone i had admired from a distance wanted to have a shag. although the friend is very wealthy so you never know, but i think cardiff is a bit far for a relationship. hasnt stopped him texting me ever since.

belfast was cancelled due to snow. but work is growing exponentially and yet again i am working in the evening and probably over the weekend. next week we go to belfast thursday and york friday i think i will avoid dinners with colleagues and their friends.

but two good things have happened this week - firstly the boy has decided he wants to be a marine biologist or a zoologist. and the second thing is - i have my ticket to glastonbury booked - yay. iam so excited. i cant believe i am going again. it is sooooooooo exciting.

tomorrow back to the swimming - preparing for my scuba course - something else that is so exciting - my life is so on the up at the moment - mmm where is the catch!!!!
