Overnight I seemed to have made significant progress! Last night I went out for some drinks with a very close friend and we just reminisced and laughed the night away. I genuinely can't remember the last time I enjoyed myself like that and didn't come home wanting to go to go to sleep and never wake up again! To continue the good spirits, I've had a big fat smile on my face allllll day, whilst catching up with some friends.
Its silly to think I never thought I'd feel happy or be able...
Just like I knew I would, I regret posting that blog post yesterday. Reading it back I sound like such a petulant little child - I apologise to anyone who had the misfortune of stumbling across that and having to read it. I promise I am not normally like that! I swear!
It all came from the fact that alot of bad things have happened to me and my family in the past two months and it's making everything else, all the silly little things seem like big huge problems when they aren't. Some days I feel like...
What do I tell people I meet? This was a question I tried to answer when I first knew I had cancer plus mets in my bones. I had a huge temptation at first, to tell everyone and get sympathy. "Oh you poor thing, you're so brave". I could have expected that reaction, or could I? I decided not to test it out.

I hate going back to work after the weekend, I miss my boyfriend so much. He's my best friend and he makes me feel so happy. I find it very hard to get through the day without him.
That's all I have to say today for now - he's all I can think about :)
Today’s title is a song recorded in 1967 by one of my favourite artists. Chris Clark. Not many people have heard her music which is a great shame. She never got the recognition she deserved. She’s from the same era as another favourite of mine - Dusty Springfield, and Chris Clark has a fine voice too. However I do know someone who loves 60s music as much as I do. Let’s call him D and I have his permission to share his views on how dating has got more difficult since the good old days...
