Hello, yes I am still here and alive and well (sort of!)
At the end of 2009 and part way through my 50th year I posted the following blog post. I don't imagine any of you will have been with me since then but you never know. In my next post I will update you on what if any progress I have made over the past 6 years.
'In 2010 I will ....
December 23, 2009
Hello again, long time no see. OK it's my fault I know but I have been making plans for 2010 to try to improve my self motivation, confidence and self worth. My resolutions are
- To start an Open University Course with the aim of eventually achieving a degree (BD Open Degree)
- To commence some voluntary work either with the elderly, the British Red Cross or the Hospice. I was a volunteer for years with the Red Cross so my loyalty will always lie with them but I also worked in a Psychiatric Day Hospital for a while with Alzheimers patients and really enjoyed that too. I need something which will find my SRN status useful but that I can do within my own physical limits.
- To go on a cruise in the Autumn in lieu of my 50th birthday in June.
What a lot of plans and I have already been in tears just filling in the OU forms when I see the word "examination!" but I must set myself challenges or I will just vegetate'
