I had a friend’s 40th celebration tonight, which I have been looking forward to. Thing is, just before the party I had the news that Finn had been to A&E with something wrong with his ear. I dashed to his Dad’s house to check on him – little sod had either stuck something in his ear or something had crawled in and irritated it; he needed a few drops and was fine. He was loving the attention!

I had rushed out the door so quickly I completely forgot about this blog. It wasn’t until I eventually arrived at the party that I remembered. I’m not sure how ‘daring and mighty’ it is to leave a party early in order to write a blog. I guess my commitment is something to be proud of and, to be fair, I had intended on an early night to heal this lingering lurgy, but again, hardly living it up and making the most of the moment…! I enjoyed catching up with some girlfriends that I’d not seen in a while. My singledom and the latest chapter of my dating life is a hot topic of conversation amongst my mates and I quite enjoy the banter. While entertaining them with the latest it hit me that I feel like I AM in a relationship just now. With this blog! Oh dear, how sad is that. I plan around it, I come home early for it, I find myself thinking about it a lot, I am considerate of it and I am totally 100% committed to it.

I have minutes to spare to get this out before midnight. I’m disappointed not to be on the dance-floor with my mates right now, but am glad to be nurturing my health. Got a very big and very exciting week ahead and want to be feeling on top form
