Just realised it has been months and months since I even look at LJ let alone posted anything,. Time to rectify that.... Not going to go back over the months and months I have missed there is too much to go into. Have been up to Scotland less this year than previous years but am setting that to rights as well. Going up for Halloween Bedlam again this year as it is the week before Midlife !! Am really looking forward to a nice weekend away, although I not long ago returned from a fab weekend in Edinburgh with my best friend Suzie. We got tattooed, drank cocktails, did loads of tourist stuff and hung out with rather splendid people. Need to do that again sometime and do all the other touristy things we missed! I have had most of my hair cut of recently, it has been doing my head in - I am getting hot flushes from time to time and my hair being so thick and heavy on my neck was only making matters worse. I have been told it makes me look younger too which is never a bad thing :-) One thing I am really happy about recently is that I have stopped taking the anti-depressants. It just kind of happened. I ran out as I was going away for a weekend and then was too busy with work when I got home and didn't really have many side effects from going cold turkey. Its not been nearly a month and all seems well. The physical symptoms I was mainly taking them for have not yet reappeared and any kind of stressful moments I am taking in my stride and they are not freaking me out! I am hoping this is going to be a permanent change for the better and I don't have to go back onto them again (but I will never say never, if I need them again, I will take them without hesitation!) So that is all good stuf.. The house is slowly getting sorted and given a new coat of paint. If it is all finished for the end of November I will be pleasantly surprised and happy. The garden got sorted earlier this year and it is just inside that needs doing now. Front room is done although I really would like some new furniture, a sofa and two chairs instead of two sofas, we shall have to wait and see about that though. So yeah, its all pretty positive at the moment. I am doing an extra day at work a week till the end of March which is helping with the sorting of the house and Emily is back a college and loving it. All is relatively well with the world of Jane and this is a good thing! Right that is all for now, radio tonight - stuff to do you know! I will try to write a bit more in here, if only once
