How I did it
How to complete the All New 30 Day Song Challenge
It took me
30 days
It made me
Warm and nostalgic

How I did it: I saw people on 43T playing the original 30 song challenge at a time when I was unable to join in (damn studies!) and was gutted I couldn't play along but thought I'd maybe catch the tail-end of it after exams.However, when I looked at the list I just couldn't answer a whole lot of them and by that time things were pretty much wrapping up on that goal.  So I thought, if I'm going to play alone I might as well play it my&nbs… Read how I did it…

How to post the Postcards
It took me
2 months
It made me
Connected and Happy

How I did it: In a moment of nostalgic indulgence I bought a box of 100 postcards depicting Penguin book covers.I spent several months sifting through them and smiling and remembering and putting them back in their box and into a drawer; each time a few cards would remind me of particular 43Ters.After a while I decided it was silly to keep hold of them, made a goal and starting shamelessly begging and pleading with people to let me send them a card.50 … Read how I did it…

How to be denounced (loudly and publicly) as the Antichrist
It took me
1 day
It made me

How I did it: Please understand, this is not a goal I actively set out to achieve, but, it seems, some things just happen without you even trying.Picture the scene, if you will; Saturday afternoon in the city centre, swirling crowds of shoppers, a busker or two, and me, sitting on a bench.  I was just sitting there listening to a guy play his banjo; I wasn't making buildings crumble with my frightful stare or plotting to wither the crops or bring … Read how I did it…

Bid you adieu
One for the road...

You all know how I love me a bit of sentimentality so I want to leave a final post as I leave this account for pastures new; a thank you to all of you who have supported me this far; which, when I look back, is some not inconsiderable distance.

Some of you are joining me on this next stage of personal change and growth; I am flattered and delighted. Others may work out where I am and are welcome. Still others may drift away; this doesn’t mean they are of less value or importance…a little part of us will always be connected in the space and time we shared; that’s pretty bloody awesome and I’m so grateful for it…thank you for being there during this part and I hope for you the best of luck and much happiness.

The thing is, I’m feeling rather emotional about leaving my Lady Grinning Soul account behind.

I wanted to say I love you guys. And thank you for all that you are and everything that you give; you are incredible.

To anyone who stumbles across this after I’m gone…sorry I never got to meet you; I bet you’re pretty damned awesome.

As of midnight GMT (5pm 43Things time?) I’ll stop using this account. PMs will be read but cheers, comments etc. will sadly have to go unacknowledged :-(

One more time…keep being your splendiferous selves and

Whether this is a shift in our relationship, a temporary parting or a final farewell, remember you are unique, beautiful, amazing and loved.

Hugs and kisses,
LGS

Quit smoking (again & permanently) (read all 10 entries…)
Despite marking this done

it is (sadly) merely a goal that I’m done with posting about on this account rather than a goal I have achieved; I could not bring myself to say that I have ‘given up’ on the goal though…the fight continues and dammit, I will conquer.

I wish I had better news for the last post here, but…well let’s just say tomorrow is a new day and we’ll begin again.

Keep at it girls…I’m still with you, just in a slightly different format ;-)

Manifest a gathering between CrunchyBread, littlesoul and Lady Grinning Soul where they will banquet in a Scottish castle, be served by men in kilts, drink whisky and howl around the camp fire! (read all 2 entries…)
I cannot mark this either done *or* given up

so it will stay here :-)

Obviously I won’t be making posts to it, but rest assured, I am, and will continue to be, working on it.

Maybe I’ll post about it under another guise… ;p

Love you ladies,
Hugs
