Been a good girl!

Finally, after years and years of 'uhm'-ing and 'aah'-ing and procrastinating, I've finally Gol' darn gone and done it. I've booked myself in for my first driving lesson in TWELVE YEARS. It's a 2 hour slot for one evening next week, so lets hope Worthing is ready for me coming through!

Oh MY GOD!!!

Nervous doesn't begin to describe me, try anxious or panic filled or filling my pants or scared or worried or intrepid or any one of a thousand descriptive words (29 years old and I still can't remember the proper word for describing words) (I'm told by hubby that I mean adjectives)!

Not only the driving lessons, but today I conquered my fear of looking stupid and went along to the Aquarobics class. I got talking to another lady (her friend had let her down) and didn't feel anywhere near as self conscious as I'd expected to. I wasn't the biggest, or the lumpiest or the slowest. And I did feel good in the water!

So, that's two firsts today. I also rang my sister in the hospital - she's sounding better than before but not proper better - although I refused to say when I'd visit. I reminded her that I have a life, and darn it, I'm gonna live it!

I'm 29 years young and I've got a whole life ahead of me. Time to go out and enjoy it!

Icecream tub here I come!
