I’ll Take Waiting Over Settling Any Day of The Week – #3dates3mths 1st Month Update
So it’s been just over a month since I announced my return to the dating game. I say game, although this time around I don’t want to play any bloody games! I have to admit, my fear of the “game playing” is what makes me feel so afraid of starting to date. Last time around my whole life was turned into one big messy game of chess and I don’t want to go back to that again. I’ve been undertaking Just Singles #3dates3mths challenge for over a month now and I have honestly been trying, even to the point of indulging in some harmless stalking! First things first, I managed…

Twenty Six
As some of you, or perhaps all of you, know that it was my birthday on Friday. For the last few years I’ve had fairly rubbishy birthday so this year when all my friends wanted to make plans with me I was so excited! My twenty fifth year was awful, the worst of my life, so being able to bid it farewell and hello to my new age in such a way was so nice. I ended up having four birthdays in total, or two birthday weekends. My two closest friends from university, Jess & Kariss came up from the 7th-9th and we went out for a meal on the…

Happy International Womens Day
I’m not sure how into this International Womens Day I really am, but I thought i’d write a quick post about the inspiring and supportive women in my life. Starting with my Nanny. My Nanny is husband to one frustrating man, mother to five children, four girls and one boy. She is grandmother to sixteen grandchildren and great grand mother to twelve. She has been a housewife all her life, marrying at seventeen. She’s suffered mental health problems, lost family, close family but through it all, she’s held our family together. Although my grandfather claims to be the head of the family, it’s really my Nanny. She gives and gives,…

Adventuring in Louth
The past three days I’ve been lucky enough to be in the company of my best friend Bee and her family. As my mother works in a school, unless I’m ill or have something important to do, she rarely has Little Miss for me, and she never had her over night, except when she’s on holiday which has been for the last week. So on Wednesday I caught the train down the country at 8:10am to make sure I made the most of the time I had. I arrived just before lunchtime and spent my first day catching up as I hadn’t seen Bee since a few days before Christmas.…

A Single Girl’s Valentines – #3Dates3Mths
“Twenty something girl from the north, would like to meet a twenty something guy. Preferably with dark hair, eyes and a winning smile. Great sense of humour is necessary. Must be okay with the fact she sings badly to Disney and show tunes while doing the housework, bonus if he would try to join in. Must like nights in more than nights out, Chinese food, traveling and doing the washing up (because she doesn’t).“ After almost two years I finally feel ready to return to the world of dating. The scary world of dating that is and to help me with this I’ve agreed to take part in the #3Dates3Mnths…
