2016 stuff.......

Hiya,

Long time no blog (how many times do I write that? Must try harder)

So......2016, a year that was either good or bad to you.

It was good to me, or maybe should I say it was just indifferent?

So many actors and musicians lost in one year, it's to be expected, we are all getting old, this will probably continue now, I thought that last December when Lemmy from Motorhead died, I thought, well, he's that age and lifestyle......

Nothing dramatic has affected my life, in terms of negativity, my Aunt was poorly for a long while and that worried me greatly, but I knew my cousins were there for her, and my Mum and when I saw her a few days ago, she looked great.

The beginning of 2016 saw me leave yet another disastrous relationship (if it was that, I never knew after 4 months) and then onto work and training and being single and learning about what I want to do and what I need to do for my sanity.

I had a 'work wobble' this year, making me re-think a few things, mainly that I don't make enough money currently and also, I feel like I'm here, destined for bigger and better things. I just didn't know what.

I left negative people behind, people who were meant to be friends but actually revealed themselves to manipulative, jealous, and possibly psychotic individuals.

My visit to The Somme (see Somme blog) well, that made a massive impact, and so, after over 4 years of pondering over the Army reserves, I applied and am now part of 6 Rifles, all ready to crack on in 2017!

I have always loved to set goals, but for me the reserves was a goal I wasn't sure I could achieve, but if you want something enough, you make it happen, no matter what.

I hope that you all have a happy and healthy 2017, I am so looking forward to it, even staying positive about my birthday for once!

Stay safe and healthy x
