Just keep swimming....just keep swimming, swimming, swimming......

I think i may actually survive the school holidays as so far we're all still alive, so think i may actually manage the whole week lol!


After the lovely start we had on monday the typical british curse hit and it started raining tuesday, so that turned out to be a quietish day.... Took the munchkin to the cinema, and although i did try and talk him into seeing something more grown up like Super 8  or Rise of the Planet of the Apes, guess what we ended up seeing? Cars 2..... good job i don't mind disney!!
Went to Selsey yesterday to visit my god daughter as i thought it was a good excuse to get out the house and go do something a little different.... although i wasn't sure where we'd end up where we was supposed to though with my sense of direction. Was a nice day, the sun shone and we had a BBQ for lunch mmmm (and i only took a wrong turn once so the twat nav didn't do to bad a job!). Mind you today is back to the crappy british weather again, yep you guessed it.... it's wet :o(  


Actually the weather might have been really shitty tuesday but i had a nice day. Got to spend some time with the munchkin, got to relax and read a bit, and best of all got to spend time chilling with the bloke watching my ER dvd's.... sometimes it's just having the little things that mean the most and i'm a sucker for snuggling up on the sofa..... even if it's just sitting near each other and having your feet intertwine, it's all good! Wonder if i'll have the same type of night tonight? I hope so as i think i could do with someone just wrapping me up and telling me it will all be ok.


It actually dawned on me last night what this week is, and in some 'full moon' type way could explain a little as to why i have felt as i have. This week has been significant in my life on three separate occasions.


Firstly seven years ago today i took one of the biggest steps into being a grown up (and having the huge debt that goes with it) as i got the keys to my first house..... ok, might not sound too much to some people, but when you think of the debt and responsibility that goes with it and the fact that i am solely responsible for it all now then to me it feels significant!


Secondly it's two years ago yesterday that i broke up with my ex after finding all the internet exchanges between him and the thing he was cheating on me with.... and when i confronted him he bare faced lied to me about it all saying they were only 'friends'.... looking back at what he put me through, how badly he treated me for months leading up to that point, then it really is no wonder that sometimes i have issues and find it hard to believe that someone would actually want to be with me, as my ex broke my confidence so badly that it's still not back completely!


And, saving the best for last, it was this time last year that me and the bloke got together properly really.... we don't really have an official anniversary (and maybe that's done on purpose by him so he doesn't ever have to remember a date.... after all blokes don't do dates lol). I gave him an anniversary card on the 10th July as that was the date we first met, but it is a year ago this week where i had my friend visiting and so as he couldn't come round we was constantly texting, and it ended in a rather strange but great phone call which lasted for a couple of hours, and i got passed around 5 or 6 of his friends i'd never actually met to talk to...... sometimes i miss those days, the ones where you text each other just to see how the other one is and to let them know you are thinking about them, or when you get the random email at work with song lyrics on them just so they can let you know they are missing you...... one of the downsides of moving in together is the fact that you very quickly become familiar and part of the everyday routine and so the little gestures like that quickly disappear as the honeymoon period ends *sigh* 


I love the little gestures, and i don't necessarily mean bunches of flowers and chocolates type.... just the little things that are unprompted, but let you know that there is someone out there who has your back......


Well guess i'd better crack on and deal with the rest of the week, i have food shopping and a boiler getting serviced today.... jealous? lol. 


Hope you have a good one!
