Well, I had a nice dinner out with my friend last night and a glass of prosecco. I went to the hairdressers yesterday and instead of having my shoulder length dark hair straight, she curled it into loose ringlets. I put a little sparkly hairslide in and felt quite glam going out last night.
The friend I was with suggested we think of maybe going on a trip together at some point? She suggested a cruise, which is something I'd like to do. I don't know her all that well as we've only been out half a dozen or so times. But if the friendship grows, it might be a plan for next year, and it would be good to have a friend to travel with. It's one of the things I've found tough about being single....no more 'ready made' family trips.
I also came back to an email from the woman I chatted to at the Llama trek. Inviting me to a game of rounders next week....okay, not done that for 30+ years but may give it a try. I'm at the bookstore for a couple of hours this am, then off for a drink with M&D who have an old friend over for lunch.
No further news from the L. We were supposed to exchange financial info yesterday, and I don't know the outcome of that either way. Guess I'll hear more next week. No sign of D papers yet either. Feeling pretty settled and upbeat about things though. After the initial grief, I feel that H actually filing for D is helping shift things in me some more, and starting to bring more of a sense of closure. Actually starting to move on, rather than just moving forward.
Have a great weekend my friends xx
