2006


2006 - just rolls off the tongue, don't it.......2006 - a luscious number.

2006 - the year I am intending to go skiing for the first time ever.
2006 - the year I am going back to 'school' for the first time since my flunked A levels.
2006 - hopefully the year I get to see Boo; first time in 3 years or more.
2006 - the year I intend to change jobs.

Lots of firsts there. Lots of things for this depressed blogger to look at positively.

There are also three anniversaries this year.

1986 - the year I joined the Civil Service as a baby civil servant. Seems a lifetime ago - oh hang on, it was!

1986 - the year I met MB. He fell for me first, I took some persuading. I thought I was really bad at relationships, but 20 years later we are still together.

and then there is the Big Bad Anniversary. The primary reason behind my depression. One of the reasons for my manic adoration of my cats. One of the reasons I surround myself with other people's children.

1996 - a year etched in my mind for all eternity.
1996 was the year my GP sat me down and told me I would never have children.
1996 was the year I was admitted for drastic gynae surgery.
1996 was the year my life stalled and never really restarted.

So here we are - 2006.

Hello, 2006 :-)

Update - this is very interesting. Despite the rotten anniversary, I thought this a reasonably upbeat post (given my current state of mind!), but it seems to read as sad......

All my BlogBuddies! This is a Positive Post - dealing with crap in my own way.
Honest - it is! Positive......this is me being positive.....

96 for you sounds like 2000 was for me.
May 2006 bring many GOOD firsts for you.
