I lie in bed in the mornings, sometimes, dwelling on the past, and stuff I’d like to change. What a stupid way to start the day! I get up all melancholy, when I eventually manage to drag myself out of my wallowing self pity. I know it’s a waste of emotions, and most of the time, I manage to be quite an upbeat, cheery kind of girl.
It’s stupid things like kissing the wrong guy at new years, or letting someone throw away some treasure love letters that I really should have held on to, or not telling my ex boss to get stuffed when she gave me a hard time in front of the customers when I handed in my notice (I have spent god knows how many hours making up great come backs and put downs, rescripting entire scenes for that one!)
I need to just forget that stuff – why do I still care? Some of that was more than 10 years ago!

big table
2 years ago
Me and my husband bought a huge table when we moved into our new house – it seats up to 12 people. We have all the gear – the plates, the dishes, the wine glasses. We really thought we’d be socialble. Huh! Then we had a baby, and that plan went to the dogs!!!
She’s three now, though, so we really ought to dust off the icecream maker and the griddle pan. Oh, and remember to invite somebody over….
No excuse at all now

My 6 months is up since my ear piercing, so no excuses now. Just need to find the next drop in session at the church hall. I say this now, but my sieve brain will let this instruction fall right out of my consciousness in approximately 48 seconds!!!
