My first post with no beady pictures! Have you stopped reading already? LOL
I am very excited and a little bit scared as I have just booked a course of swimming lessons and scheduled my gym induction! First steps on the long road to physical fitness I hope. I will be blogging about my swimming experiences and hope you will be 'swimming' along with me. My next major decision will be do I get goggles and a swimming cap or not? Hmmmmm...................
Its so weird - I told my OH that I had booked the classes and hoped to get fit and lose a little weight and his response was 'but I like you the way you are'. I took that to mean 'overweight and unattractive' and told him so. I was hoping for some encouragement but maybe he feels a bit threatened at the thought of having a superfit, toned up, sexy as hell girlfriend - hang on I already am as sexy as hell - who is he kidding?!

New beginnings
Hello peeps!
Despite my noble intentions of doing a regular blog, I have fallen woefully behind. My beading mojo up and left me for ages and I have been feeling like a fish out of water. Like many, many people I suffer with depression and had stopped taking my meds - stupid woman that I am! Been feeling low for such a long time but have now given myself a much needed kick up the backside and am on the way up again (and back on meds). I dont usually share such personal info but decided that I shouldn't be embarrassed any longer.
I have started beading again although my mind is still not 'settled' and I rip up as much as I am beading - but I will get there in the end and settle down.
I have also made some changes to my life which have made me feel stronger and more positive - long may that feeling continue.
Only two pieces to share with you today and another UFO:
This was my entry into the February Etsy Beadweavers Challenge. My mind is quite a strange place and this comes out in my beadwork!
Recently listed for sale in my Etsy store - just a quick project to get the beading flowing again.
My latest flight of fancy!
I will endeavour to keep posting and beading - wish me luck!!!
