Wow,

Has it really been a year since I’ve posted anything on here? I don’t believe it. That was one crazy ride.

What did I accomplished in 2010?

– I stayed healthy, I didn’t let my eating disorder back into my life.

– I re-built the bedroom and living-room. Bought lots of nice new things.

– I almost had baby Koi in my pond. But I think the others ate them all, so this year Ill be more prepared.

– I set up a sick pond for any sick fish.

– I was published. :) The most amazing one.

– I am working on a re-write for my novel and have an artist friend who is helping bring my characters to life.

– I also changed my job, so I’m on more money and better hours :)

Overall.

It was a good year. On to the next one.

Plans.

– To dance Zumba every week at my sister in law’s Dance school… They’re great by the way…

– To Scuba dive… yikes.

– To publish as much as I can.

– To make another film.

– To sell a script of my own, or win another competition.

– To keep on being healthy.

How about everyone else? What are your plans? What were you proud of in 2010?

Hi there, so I’ve blogged for many years, but not here. I started to make the move from netlog. My account there had a lot of readers, but I never quite got around to it.

So here I am, trying to be more productive in 2011, I can’t think why. But I wanted a record this year.

In reflection 2010 was pretty interesting, I changed my job and finally I have my name in print. 🙂 A journey and a half. So this year I wanted to have something to look back on, something to reflect on properly. I don’t think I’ve ever not written a diary/journal since the age of 13, but 2009/10 were years that flew past me in many ways.

For those who don’t know me, my story is a desperate one. Filled with inner pain and torment. I’m honest, I’m blunt and I don’t give up easily.

I make spelling mistakes when I type, I am only so-so with my grammar. But, I am learning.

So, plans for today…

After a fretful night of no sleep and horrific dreams. I need to tire myself out a little. A good walk will help.

I’ve also been working on my spin off story, untitled as of yet. But I’m trying my best to find one that fits. Titles aren’t my thing. Although writing really is. Word count so far 345. I’m quite pleased with that for a mornings work.

Speak soon

So non of my friends are about to chat, so I thought I would pop in here.

I have had a good day in work, just got in about 30 mins ago, the weather is horrible, I was sliding all over on the road in my car. I am so so glad we don’t have to use the motorbike in this weather, I remember what it used to be like going to work on my 125, oh no never again. Far too cold and dangerous.

Anyway, it was pretty un eventful really. I did my job tried to do the best I could and then when the night man came in to releave me I came home.

I have a few days off now, but I might pop up to one of our other petrol stations tomorrow. They are having a mock robbery, how cool is that. I am going to try and get some on my phone, when we have one at our site, I really want to get the film crew down and make some sort of little documentary about it, that would be great. Something else on my belt..

Its got to all help.

I just wonder what it would be like to be in a real one. I know we are all trained to handle things like that, and to keep our cash limits down in the tills but at this time of year, if someone thinks they can get £10 for nothing, they will try anything, especially if desperate.

So I might blog tomorrow about what happens, Think it will interest a few people and myself for future reference lol.

Hope all is well with everyone else. I am going to go to bed soon. Its been a long day, I am cold and my pillow is calling my name….

lol

Speak soon, good night all.

Hey to everyone who knows me.

Just a quick update.

I am very happy to say things are great. I am doing well in my writing and in my home life. Of course I aint going to be 100% happy but who is.

I’ve managed to write a novel in november as part of nanowrimo, and I am working hard on a few other projects. One is my series, which is going from strength to strength.

Will try and keep updated a little more, I know I should.

Speak soon.

The good stuff

Today I am entering another competition, only small in comparison to the others of which I entered. but non the less its had my creative mind on the go.

A good thing, I also read on with a script which I loved, just one problem there is no ending yet, so I will have to wait.

The bad stuff…

So today I actually ate, half a meal that is, in the sense of what I normally would, but in a way its a start.

Not daring to look at the scales this week as my jeans are already falling off. When it goes wrong it goes wrong big time. Nothing in the world feels worse than the food I let myself eat.

When you can make yourself feel guilty for the one thing in life that you have to do by necessity, then it becomes the worst thing in your life.

The world around me carried on today and I just sort of got caught out by the fact Paul came home and then went out for a take out. I still ate with him, which wasn’t what my inner voice had planned I really wanted to carry on and have as little as possible, surviving on a slice of toast and lots of coffee.

It can’t carry on like this, but I want it too, it is the most evil battle of all time, and I want the other side to win.

I am bad in the sense I want the other side to win, and I know I am.

Inside I feel I did well, walked a lot over the last couple of days and expenditure has def exceeded the income, but I now feel awful for eating dinner. In fact so awful I can’t bare it.
