rabbit in the headlights

Posted on Tue 16 October 2007 at 10:40

 

This morning in the Gym almost had me crying for the first time in several days.  Nothing special, just pedaling away on the exercise bike and then they started playing sad songs on the sodding Music Channel.  REM’s Everybody Hurts came on and I was just about away.  So it was head down and pedaling furiously as I don’t want to feel sad and miserable all the time.  Thankfully that passed with little more than a trembling lip and screwed up face for 2k or so.  But once I got out of the Gym and the sun was shining, I remembered that there is more to life than how I feel right now.   It’s amazing how the sun can change my mood – thank God we’re coming into summer soon as that is balm to my soul.

 

I had intended to stay out all morning to keep out of the way of the swarming estate agents.  But against my better judgment I ducked back into the house in between the Gym and swimming.  I could see several Estate Agent type things on the table so realized they had been and gone.  Ah well, I thought, seeing as they have gone, I may as well get changed out of my Gym gear and into my swimming gear.  So there I was, stark naked in the bedroom, about to step into my swimming suit.  When another car-load of all-male estate agents pulled up outside.  Of course, my swimming suit couldn’t possibly be something I could step gracefully into and pull up in one smooth motion.  No.  It has odd shoulder straps that need to be pulled over my hips and shrugged into.  My face must have been an absolute picture – like a rabbit caught in the headlights.  I’m frantically pulling up the bloody swimsuit whilst trying to kick all my Gym kit along the carpet and into the bathroom.  As if that wasn’t bad enough, my discarded bra hooked into the carpet and I put my foot full on into the cup and just about measured my length beside the bloody bed.  Laughing hysterically, I just made it to the bathroom in time!  It brightened my morning considerably, I can tell you. 

 

I’ve done a bit of prep fro my interview – still wavering between confidence and terror, so the sooner that’s over and done with the better.

 

Ian came over this afternoon, we did another hypnotherapy session.  Quite relaxed and mellow this evening, I have even eaten something today so that is a start on the road to normality.  

 

When I’m down in/near Wellington, I want to find a beach.  I want to walk along it.  I want to run along it.  I want to be able to picture myself and Melissa there once I am back here in Hamilton.  I want to picture the sun shining on us both and us being happy there.  I want so much right now but that part may actually come true before too long.  As you may have guessed, we have decided that Melissa will be coming with me and going to steve’s on regular visits.  Roll on Friday so that I can get this thing done and know what the immediate future holds.  Positive vibes people, positive vibes…..
