Half Term!!!

Phew! I have had a rather hectic week! I'm actually glad it's a Monday, although I am sad to leave the chaos behind!

I attended an old friend's wedding last Saturday, which was amazing. She looked so beautiful I could have cried. I met up with some people I hadn't really seen since I started uni and drank a little too much. Which is pretty unusual for me as alcohol and anxiety just don't really get on.

I then borrowed two gorgeous children for the week, and turned myself into a glorified 10 year old. I played on the trampoline, ate too many sweets, went to Rufford and looked after some owls and spent a couple of evenings laid on the trampoline looking at Mars and then watching the International Space Station zoom across the sky.

I made a cake with one of her girls. It was complete guesswork as my friend has just moved into her new house, and hadn't unpacked her scales! But it turned out really well!

We also went to Centre Parcs, which was brilliant, I looked after my friend's two girls and their two friends. We spent most of the time in the rapids, and I went down the second stage of the rapids to see if I could take the smaller girls down (the rapids are pretty rough and were pulling me under, no match for a tiny 8 year old!)

I ended up cracking the back of my head on something as I desperately tried to stay upright. I was a little under prepared for how fast the rapids were, which is a total rookie mistake, and I'm a little annoyed as I'm a pretty good swimmer. I ended up with mild concussion and a two day headache! Which I suppose was a small price to pay for all the fun I had. :-)

I also managed to mess up some plans my hubby had made, secret surprise plans, so in my defense I had no idea. But I had a panic about getting home on time etc. With the trains being a little messed up over Easter. I feel pretty bad about that, and annoyed that we didn't go and see the Jousting finals in Leeds because of my anxiety and I'm so annoyed that I didn't just pluck up the guts and just DO IT and text, and ask for a lift back. Urgh. The only reason I didn't text and ask for a lift was because I was worried I would mess up hubby's plans. Stupid brain, over thinking.

Anyway, I hope you've all had a good Ostara, Easter, Half Term or whatever :-)
