The life of The Girl Shelby

It's been so long since I logged in everything has changed!

I'm not going to dwell too much on the past 5 months as things haven't been as wonderful as I might have hoped. There are still some issues which I have to work through, but hopefully things are on the up again.

So a quick update on where I am now. I am between homes - my flat sale went through in March and I am now back living with my parents until my new apartment is completed. Current completion date is October/early November. I went for a look at the weekend and nothing appeared to have happened since I was last there about a month ago. At this rate I'll be lucky to be in before Christmas.

Work hasn't changed much - still doing the same thing at the same place and still enjoying it. I've been to some more exotic locations - last week I was in deepest darkest Dorset. However, I did get to go to Leuven in Belgium - home of Stella Artois and mecca to the lager drinking world.

My family are all well. My parents are both currently gainfully employed, although I think the only reason my Mum got a job was to get her away from my Dad occasionally. A few weeks later and she needn't have bothered as my Dad set up his own consultancy business and now has a contract with a high street chain of shops.

My friends are all doing well. One of my schoolfriends got married in March (it's been so long since I did this that I can't remember anyone's aliases!) since then, 2 of my other school friends who were in long term relationships have got engaged. It seems that the old adage - one wedding brings on another - is more than true in this case! My university friends seem to be leaving the country en masse. Most of them are now in Australia! Those that are still here seem to be having children. The latest arrival was a little girl born to friend Tiffani Holiday (I managed to look that one up) in March, in fact on the same day as the wedding I was at.

I think that's everything. More later
