Anticipation vs Concentration

It has been a busy morning here at my desk. Not that I have spent a lot of time at my desk, I’ve been running around the building meeting operations teams and vendors and the like. I’ve enjoyed it.

Something big is happening after work and as I am on the downward slope to home time, my concentration is being rucked and mauled by anticipation. I need to concentrate on my work!! But I can’t.

I haven’t had any more coffee, I’m drinking water and aside from this blog, I’m trying to avoid my web browser unless it is absolutely necessary.
My usual ploy of writing an achievable task list just isn’t working for me today.

And then there is the window.
I need to find a way of sitting by it but not staring out of it.

But wouldn’t you if you were stuck inside on a day like today – and even more so if you were busting to get out of work?

Cupid Kim’s Arrow

I’ve talked about all sorts of things on this blog.  I’ve never really found it all that hard to be honest and open – even about weight, health and being single.

Writing this post however was a bit harder – I do find it a little strange that it should be more difficult to blog that I have met someone and to feel a little nervous about introducing that special person to my family and friends (and readers).  More difficult than admitting I felt alone a lot and had pretty much resigned myself to the single life.  (I was even interviewed regarding my eternal singledom)
Still, nothing ventured, nothing gained.

Queue the soppy music, spread the rose petals … all of that sort of stuff.  I’m a very very happy girl.

I have my friend Kim to thank for this fantastic addition to my life.  She decided we’d get on – and she was right!

He’s made the beginning of 2012 fun, exciting and full of laughter.
He’s already interested in photography – and he loves being outside, nature, animals, conservation – so I’ll teach him to dive as soon as my ears are fixed.
He’ll probably (maybe) read this and think .. oh shit she writes about everything!
Well not quite everything (I keep the real crazy thoughts on the inside) but to be safe, I’ve asked him about whether he’s okay with the things I talk about and if he wants to appear or not.  Best to get that out of the way early on.

I know it’s early days yet so I’m not going to ramble on too much.  We just did the whole “Facebook announcement” thing as it was getting kinda hard to say we weren’t together … considering I was down in Hamilton so much.  You can’t blame a girl for wanting to skite about such a catch.
