Weekend

DD took her Driving Theory Test last Friday.  She'd been quite worried about it and had spent loads of time doing mock tests at home. 

She passed! And is now well on the way to being another loose driver on the road! Her driving instructor is wanting her to put in for her practical test quite soon. And then we have to decide what days she can use my car ......

I also had a Ladies Lunch on Friday and DD joined us for that. One of our 'ladies' turns 50 this week so we'd all clubbed together to buy her a present. We went to the same pub that we've been going to for months, but it was still lovely to meet up as we don't all work together anymore. 

Then Friday afternoon it was time for Molly to be trimmed. She went from looking scruffy and cute to nicely trimmed and even cuter!

Saturday was time to catch up with the weekly shopping and housework - doing the boring jobs first before attempting to make some more jewellery in the evening. DD had a friend staying over too, as they were going out at night. 

Yesterday was a long day. After waking up feeling quite rough, and suffering a headache all day, we headed off to Leeds to see Ruby Wax. I've read her book 'Sane New World' and her tour is all about that, and explaining mindfulness and CBT (cognitive behaviour therapy) - basically how to retrain your mind and keep yourself sane. Even though I don't take anti-depressants anymore, after being on them a few years ago, every now and again I start wondering if I'm heading that way again - a few bad days and I know I have to try and change my thinking as I don't want to go there again. It's hard sometimes to bring yourself back up again. 

Anyway, it was back to work today and the start of a brand new week, so who knows what will happen!
