Welcome

Hi everyone and welcome to my blog.

I will be blogging under the pseudonym of 'The Eternal Optimist' so that I can and will write openly and honestly about what has happened in the past, what is happening in the present and my hopes for the future.

The past 20 months

I've not written for awhile. It's been a crazy 20 months. Here is a summary (although things are a little blurred):

End of 2011
  • Went back to work after being signed off for 3 months
  • Dads health started to worsen
2012
  • Went to Florence and met an Italian man who I then dated long distance for 8 months
  • Went interailing around Europe with sister
  • Nan passed whilst we were in Prague
  • Dad passed the evening I returned from Europe
  • Started a new job at work
  • Became joint carer for Mum and now have flexible working arrangements
  • Was a bridesmaid at best friends wedding
  • Moved into shared flat (1/2 time as 1/2 at home)
  • 1st baby of close friendship group born
  • Met current boyfriend
  • Had Christmas abroad
2013 so far
  • Went to Verona and Venice
  • Went to Madrid
  • Mum suicidal 
  • Still with boyfriend
  • Still working flexibly
  • Still splitting time between flat/home
I'll write about some of these things separately but an overview of why I've not been able to write much. It's been a roller coaster.
