A
t the start of the year I was still living in Aberdeen, trying to sell my house, working offshore and having a relationship with someone I loved very much but not actually staying full-time in the same house as him.
By the end of the year I have left Aberdeen, still haven't sold my house but at least it's rented out for now, retired from offshore working, got a postgrad qualifcation at Aberdeen Uni in coaching, have landed a new job starting next year helping young homeless to quit fags and hash, engaged to someone I'm very much in love with and staying in the same house as him.
Inbetween I took heaps of photos, did some knitting (an awful lot of UFO's), learned to crochet, dug out my sewing machine (made an awful job of it but it'll take practice, a lot of cooking and baking (especially for small boys), tootled off to some live gigs and a few festivals, had my first "family" holiday and started to get used to life not always being my own anymore.
