I thought it might be time for an update. I've just come back from a lovely holiday in France, and I fell in love with Paris. Next week I start my teaching which I am super nervous about. It's such a big change in my life, and I am hoping that it is the right choice. It feels like the right choice.
In dating news, I have been seeing a guy this summer who is nice, but still somehow unavailable. He takes me out on lovely dates, even took me away for the weekend but never calls in between. However, I don't really mind that much because I am really not into him, he was a nice distraction but I am going to let it go. I am working up to going Internet dating but for some reason I can't face it.
I am also going to a silent speed dating night where you are not allowed to talk, you just look at each other and write notes. It should be pretty funny!
I'm still living at home but craving my independence. I have to fight my urges to just take off somewhere in the world again. Being here, where I live makes me feel trapped because I feel like a teenager here. However, I know I have to be here for another year and it really isn't so bad.
I am slowly making new friends too, I am off to the Notting Hill Carnival on Monday with new friends so I can't wait for that.
The other news is that I am pretty sure exh and his new wife (his affair partner) have split up. Ok, I should be bigger than this but... Haaaa ha ha ha ha My life has been so much richer without him in it.
My other goal is a fitness one. I realised what a complete slave to sugar and processed food I am so I am trying to eat fresh food (wherever possible) even baking my own bread. When I start school I want to be in a good eating/ exercise routine. This is a fresh start after all. I am starting with a group called military fitness where you train military style in your local park (apparently this is also a good way to meet men! So two birds, one stone and all that) as well as starting Zumba and my swimming training again. I'm hoping I can keep it up this time. It's all a good way of meeting new people too.
