Shortly after my last post, I decided I would go to the shops. Why wait around after all? (As it turns out, this was the right decision as I am still waiting to hear from him!)
I actually had a lovely afternoon. I braved Ikea and bought some stuff to get myself organised. I even stopped off at a book shop and induldged in 4 books!!
One was a Spanish dictionary full of pictures. it was recommended by my Spanish teach so I thought it was a worth while purchase.
Secondly I bought a travel gide for New York and on for Paris. I am off to Paris this Thursday so need to know how to get around. I've not been before and am interested to see what it's like. I have been on two holidays to France. After both, I did not gain any affection for France. I wonder if it will be the same now I am older? I am also going to New York in May. This is a trip of a lifetime and I VERY excited - hence the need to buy a book. Makes it seems more real that way.
The fourth book I bought was 'Work Less, Acheive More' by Fergus O'Connell. I am nearly finished it already. He seems to have some very sensible ideas about time and project management that could make my life so much less of a struggle. I am actually excited about doing some of the stuff he suggests. I'll let you know in a few weeks if it actually works.
My flat is also now reasonably tidy. I am going to do a proper clean through tomorrow. Get rid of the dust and junk I have accumulated over that 6 months.
This weeks holiday is going to be more productive than any other.
