Sorry, I'm a little excited!
It's a permanent job, local to me, paid well, and more of a 'career move' than a 'job' so I'm really really happy. Doesn't hurt that I know that they're really excited to have me as well - had interview last night (for 2.5 hrs!) and then had the offer come through this morning at 09.30!
Now, having gotten married 
and having a new job 
, I just need to win the lottery or convince DT of getting me an Icelandic horse and my 
plan will commence!

Today I bought a book about self-esteem.
What does that say about me?

Wedding
Posted Sep 5, 2005
Right, I'd done an absolutely massive post, that was very moving, witty and entertaining. Unfortunately, the browser crashed and pissed me off. So for now, let it suffice to say the wedding was lovely, the music was fabulous, the reception cool and groovy, the honeymoon relaxing, i've lost 6 pounds and that I know what i'm going to do with my life.
Oh, and here are some photos...

To Dream
Posted May 20, 2005
Right, I thought I'd try and put fingers to keyboard to try and log my thoughts today. Bear with me or b^gger off, it's up to you.
I've spent a long time searching for, what for want of a better word, I'll call, the real me.
The person I am today has made some fairly significant process in becoming.
I've learnt how to make friends and how to not be bullied. I've learnt to stand up for myself, although my methods sometimes are a bit lacking. I've learnt that I am not shy, but afraid of rejection. I have learnt that I want other peoples' respect. I have learnt that I just want to be liked and that not being liked makes me sadder than it should. I have learnt that sometimes the hassle isn't worth it, and you can save yourself a whole big bunch of pain by walking away. I've learnt that I need to be happy on my own as a person before I can be happy with someone else. I've learnt that someone else can't make me happy if I'm not. I've learnt that I like spinach and prefer my veggies. I've learnt that my mother isn't always right. I've learnt that communication really is the key. I've learnt that sometimes I will say something just to get a reaction. I've learnt that that behaviour can be self-destructive and therefore I've learnt not to do that. I've learnt that I am not weak, I am strong for I am still here. I have learnt that I am not a quitter, despite evidence to the contrary. I have learnt that changes happen one by one, day by day. If you fall off your particular wagon, you haven't failed, as long as you just dust yourself off and hop back on again. I've learnt that I need music. I've learnt that I prefer 'books' to 'literature' but can appreciate both. I've learnt to ask for help. I have learnt that I am my own worst enemy. I have learnt that the only failure is not trying. I've learnt that in order to succeed, I have to commit. I've learnt that I don't commit so that I won't succeed. I've learnt that I am too harsh a self-critic. I have learnt that I have an artistic streak. I have learnt that I enjoy exercise when I do I have learnt that I find it difficult and painful to argue or even debate And finally, I have learnt that I am an ongoing process and the journey is the important thing.
Well, obviously, that's not really a _final_ list. But it'll do for today.
cheers ismarah the
