Hello. This week:

1. Lost my ring - 21st B'day present from Claire - very very very annoying. Love my spinny ring but it is gone. Have hoaked through all the bins in my hosue, searched my car, office and blah blah - lost. Crap.
2. Been helping lead worship at Faithworks in the community event (Oasis trust thing) - amazing to see young people working out their faith and expressing their worship to God. Love it.
3. Walked my dog in the rain. quite nice except for the smell of wet dog drying in the house. Not good.
4. Niall moved out so have house to myself until Sept/Oct time. Very nice.
5. Veganism starts on Friday - bought lots and lots of veg night before last. Feeling better even at the thought. Good stuff.
6. Stayed up until 4am talking to Claire on the phone. Miss her lots - more crap.
7. Mum and dad booked a ferry - they are coming over for 10 days at end of August!! Woohoo!!

Well, all you guys are back from Ukraine now so I will now resume my blog updating.

What's new with me? Well, loads of stuff since you went away but I can't be bothered saying it all. I will just tell you when I see you.

One thing is that I am becoming a vegan!! i.e. no dairy and no meat and no animal products at all. So I am now a lentil freak. It is kind of for medical reasons. I am trying it for a month - August - to see if I feel better and to see if I can do it. I don't know to be honest. No cheese, no chocolate, no anything with egg in it... There's a lot you can't eat really. I did buy a vegan cook book so we will see how it works out.

Anyway, I am so glad you are all back from Ukraine safe and sound and from the sound of things it was pretty good (although have only heard from Claire and Rachel so far...).
