newly single at 40ish and living it up? on the Costa

 My blog has been badly neglected lately, so sorry for long pause, why I hear myself shouting.

Well, my electrical devices have given me alot of grieve . First my freesat box departed this world and I am now without tv, breathe Helen ,you have a computer in the spare room/junk room/newly tidied .So I set it all up by myself and I watch tv on computer , great, nope, speakers fail ,that's ok I have my laptop,nope, safe mode and so I was without my devices but than I breathed ,brought a new mouse and keyboard( yea they broke too) speakers given a day off seemed to work and I am now fully functioned on computer ish. But a lass I am no nearer to satbox conundrum.

had my first bbq of summer , veggie bbq , very nice indeed . Hotmate came round and I did my signature dish for the bbq .At family bbqs we all brought stuff and I always did veggie kebabs., alot of loving goes in them ,I chop ,I marinade them and then skewer them and I love them, now generally no one else did and I mainly ate them myself, so new chapter on my veggie kebabs

Actually pretty good weekend that was.We went to Roman baths and this time I swam in cave like area and caked myself in mud .Oh the skin felt wonderful afterwards. Did not take a towel as would dry on way back to car and would not see anyone ,wrong, there I am in just my tankini and we see the odd car ,wrong, we see 8 cars, oh well no one will know me in the middle of no where, wrong I see someone I know. Though the good thing about seeing her is ,she has told me about a place an hour away where you swim in like an open air cave area which looks fantastic and so will look forward to finding that place with hotmate hopefully.

Than last weekend I had been able to tick something of my to do  list . Yep I had a scuba diving lesson.More details on that to follow.

Well ,been a pretty uneventful week really.

Writers club was super fun this week. We had a new attendee and dare I say I think she had her number one fan in the room (no it was not me) and where we all get comments like , yeah I like it, but, and maybe you could change this. New attendee's writing was , what was his words, oh yea, marvellous , great, not a but in sight . Not sure how I feel about her writing I suppose it is thought provoking and she is quite out spoken, which I like, I may just have to see. Loved the poetry someone brought. Took my Ronda road trip blog, seemed to go down well but my grammar, how bad and I really must proof read before I post.

Had a wonderful dinner on Saturday and today I cleaned my apartment from top to bottom, even the kitchen cupboards got a wipe over and the bathroom wall. I have hotmate to thank for that, not sure why but I was finding it very difficult to vacate my pit this morning and using the excuse of just catching up on an addictive website to stay where I was, I found hotmate seemed to be struggling to get going too and he asked me or I asked him ,I cannot remember what I was going to do today and you know I honestly did not know. I debated asking him to go to roman baths. He was going for a shower and would plan his day after. I laid and pondered , I had no petrol in the car(hope I make it to work tomorrow) my bank balance screams noooo and my apartment is in need of attention.

He returns to inform me he will be proactive today and by this time I had sprung into action and I had started in the kitchen. Got a little bit distracted by a friend waiting for his paint to dry on the car he was working on (not sure how to take the fact he chatted to me while he watched paint drying).

Any how, I was motivated to clean flat and successful I was and I am now sitting in a squeaky clean and clutter free, oh, ok, not quite clutter free but an improved clutter free home.

Off to friends pool to hang out for afternoon, I only have 6 pools of my own to choose from but no I get in my car and drive to theirs but I love there company( not sure they feel the same but they invited me, so they must).

Really must stop burying my head in the sand and get a grip on my life. I have drifted through life, I drifted in school, into college, into job, into relationship and now I am drifting into singleton, drifting into whatever.

So by my next post I hope to have at least made an attempt at lifting my head out of sand.
