It's been a while
Well my friends it's been over a month since my last post. I didn't realise it was so long until I looked at it today, so my apologies if you have been waiting for an update on the love life.
Ok this is the man in question and yes for those of you who have no idea what I look like this is me. Now, before I get comments telling me what a lovely couple we make - we don't and sometime this week I will be putting this man out of his misery (or should that be putting myself out of my misery !)
While he (Michael) is the perfect gentleman I have come to the conclusion that I need someone with a bit more life in them. I know that over the last 12 months I have come a long way on my healing journey and I am so pleased I have. But I have also found out enough about myself to know that I am not ready for a relationship just yet.
In other news my baby sister is due to give birth in about 2 weeks and I can't wait and in case I haven't already mentioned but I think I have my middle sister (Callums mum) is due after Christmas. I love babies.......
But I couldn't eat a whole one ;)

Random Thoughts
Doesn't time just fly by !!
Well since my last blog I've had a 3rd & 4th date and we arranged our next date so things are going well, although I am still wondering about his sanity - 4 dates and I still haven't scared him off.
Let me tell you a little about him, his name is Michael, he is a perfect gentleman, he even asked if it was ok to hold my hand. The other week he bought me a beautiful orchid and he said it was special but not as special as me - I nearly made a joke when he said that but thought better of it.
I have noticed that I have a big tendancy to laugh off any compliments he gives me and am now trying to work on accepting them gracefully.
Is it love ? I'm not sure but in the mean time I'm enjoying this new side of me.

So much news
Well, it's been a while and a lot has gone on. I have to say that for the first time in a very long time I can finally see some healing taking place.
Me the girl who swore blind that she would never date has been out on a date and even more surprising is the fact that I didn't scare him off, I didn't come across as totally screwed up and we are actually going to have a 2nd date this weekend.
Also I have further good news....
My uncle was diagnosed with throat cancer just before Christmas and last week he was given the all clear (Thanks God)
My middle sister is also pregnant so in the space of 3 months I'll have 2 new nieces or nephews to join the little angel known as Callum.
The question is how far have I come ?
Well if I answer honestly and without embarrassment I've come further than I ever imagined possible. The dark days still occur but no where near as often and I look at them in a different way now. It's taken a lot of hard work and many, many tears but at last I can see more clearly.
God really does know all, and even when you can't or don't want to turn to Him, He puts people in your path to help you along the way.

Exciting News !!!!!!!
Well if you didn't read my previous blog then I suggest you go back and read it now.......
Now for those good souls that did here is the good news. The promotion I said I wasn't that bothered about I got (YAY !!!!)
I have learnt from an early age never to expect anything and if things don't work out it's usually because of something I've done wrong along the way. Well I was called into my boss's office and my first thought was what have I done wrong now. How wrong I was, she called me in to tell me I got the job
WooooooooooooooooooooooooooHoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

Apologies
Ok so I begin my blog with apologies to Arty......what can I say I am busy with work (I know a poor excuse) also trying to get sorted for my holidays and then trying to deal with my life in general.
I actually started posting about 2 or 3 weeks ago and never really got passed the first sentence. I was reading Morety's blog - the basic message was about letting go and letting God in (I suggest you read it http://moretysworld.blogspot.com/2008/04/letting-go.html) anyway as I was reading I realised that I was afraid to fully let go and let God in.
What am I afraid of ???
What have I got to lose ???
At this point I could give you a whole list of answers to these questions and I'm fairly sure a few of you would shoot me down in flames lol
Ultimately, what is holding me back from God ?
Easy to answer, no matter how much I say it to myself and many, many others have told me my heart says God couldn't possibly love me.
Anyway, enough of the God stuff, life is pretty crazy just now I go away on Friday for a week and I am busy trying to sort stuff out at work and I might possibly in line a promotion which would be great but if it doesn't happen it's not the end of the world.
Oh and the other great news is my baby sister is expecting her first baby in October and I will be an aunty again (YAY) and my little darling nephew will have a new play mate !!!
Take a look at Callum wearing my City hat lol
