Am I too old or him too young?

Well it’s been a while since I have been bored enough in work to type down the mundane thoughts that have been going through my head. I am not as such bored in work today, as in the fact I have practically done all my work and there is not much left for me to do so I am trying to drag out the last few things over today and tomorrow.

I have as well found myself attached. Yes, even with my cynical ways, I have managed it. This guy at the moment is great but then we are in the honeymoon period as we have only been seeing each other for just over 3 months. I think give it time and we shall see. As previously stated if we are still together after 4 years then I shall be able to comment. For the time being he is brilliant, albeit several years younger than me, there is a lot to be said for the younger man. They have a lot more energy, are more daring and a lot more interesting. Also it means that you can act younger as well and they can introduce you to new things that you might have missed out on. However, there is also down sides that come along with it, for example the feeling of being old. I was looking at my blokes computer and realised that there was no floppy disc drive, I questioned this with him and of course he laughed at me saying that nobody uses them any more, to which I thought actually no they don’t really, only archaics like me I suppose from time to time. In its place were memory card readers and USB ports.

A bad thing though now that I am no longer single I have put on weight, I am now the heaviest I have ever been in my life. There are a number of tyres forming around my middle. Something has to be done, this simply isn’t good enough!!!! I should also loose it now while I can rather than waiting until I put on even more weight and approach middle age only to find out it won’t budge and I have the dreaded middle age spread.

I also have some other exciting news concerning work this time. They are opening a new gallery in December and they have used me as a basis for a sketch or a Roman woman being cremated (dear me, almost typed worm then, that would have been disturbing).

Eeep!!! I must slow down otherwise I will have no work to do tomorrow what so ever!!!!!! I dunno, hehehehehe.

Woop woop the lovely Mark has come to my rescue and provided me with more work so I will not be left destitute tomorrow and look like I am skiving with nothing to do, nothing worse really.

I am just wondering what will happen to this document if I were to die tomorrow, not a nice thought I know but would it ever be found or would it be lost on the system and then deleted without a second glance, not that it bothers me really as it’s just some ramblings. (July 2007)

VW Bus Birthday Cake

It’s that time of year again the fantastic Mr Bus’ birthday.   Now last year I decided to design and make him a digger cake, this year of course I had to equal that effort or go one better.   I had a few ideas in the pipeline and decided to ask the Birthday boy what he would prefer.   We went with a VW Bus cake. Now I started with baking a lemon drizzle loaf cake, whilst this was cooling had the daunting thought this was not going to be high enough, so baked another lemon loaf cake, this time without the drizzle, so that I could square off the top to sit the other one on top of it.   After these had cooled down, it was time to build, placing the loaf cakes one on top of the other with a layer of vanilla butter cream in the middle, I covered the cakes all over in butter cream.   I then set about with the icing.   I thought it best to start with the white top and draped it over the cakes, just leaving enough for a slight overlap at the bottom. ...

Dirty Dancing at the Wales Millennium Centre

My mum sister and I thought it would be a lovely treat to go the Wales Millennium Centre and watch Dirty Dancing . This was my sister’s favourite film when she was growing up and we thought it would be a lovely girlie day out for us as we don’t often get to do that these days what with one thing and another. We bought the tickets for my mum’s birthday in July and were all really excited about it, as it promised great things coming from the West End. We had a Saturday afternoon showing and thought we could go for a lovely lunch first in one of the many restaurants down Cardiff Bay. When the day finally arrived we headed for Zizzi’s to eat and to be fair the food was gorgeous and tasty. My mum had raspberry lemonade to drink which I had to try some of and it was really yummy, you could taste the raspberries in it for sure. We headed over the Wales Millennium Centre and took our seats; we had not bad ones considering we booked quite late. We were sat in the circle. One ama...

A Year On

I tend to not like to blog too much about serious things, as it can all get a bit bogged down. However, I would like to reflect on the past year, and truly I must say that everything happens for a reason. My 30th year started in disaster with what was meant to be a lovely trip to Rome with my boyfriend at the time, which was on my list of places to visit since goodness knows when. Instead we got to Rome and I got dumped and found a person who I considered a friend was truly the opposite. Still we managed to make the best out of a bad situation and I still got to see the things I really wanted to see but obviously my heart wasn’t in it and I was reluctant to throw my euro into the Trevi fountain not particularly wanting to return at that point. The next few months passed in some what of a blur, but luckily I have amazing friends who were there for me and pulled me through. I kept myself busy and developed quite the social life for myself and so I was never left to mull in my ...
