Did I mention that it was cold too? |
And in other news, I got my first motoring fine in the post today. Worst thing is, it happened last week, when my head was all over the place and I couldn't even remember why I was going where I was at the time... they were obviously right, as I was in the buslane but still, it took me all afternoon to figure out why I was there in the first place! My mind does this to me... when things happen, it just blocks it ALL out and I lose entire days or weeks. I paid up and got a 50% reduction, lesson learned but it did throw me for a curve again for the better part of the afternoon. It is that destructive self talk ... I guess it is easier to bash myself and tell myself how stupid I am, how stupid it was to take the shortcut and think I'd get away with it, how it serves me right for being so stupid.. you get the picture.. yes, I'm feeling pretty stupid. And just to prove to you all how stupid I am:
And my silver lining for today... it is a rather HUGE, shiny, more like golden one! DD only managed to get an A* in her English exams!! Now she needs to do the same in Maths and she will be set for Uni. Well done baby girl, I am one proud mummy today.
You should be proud of her. Pleas tell her well done from me.
