it's the weekend!

I have had a short week this week as I had three days leave, so the weekend has come round very quickly! I had the most wonderful few days with my grand daughter whilst my daughter was away celebrating her 21st birthday. We tried potty training which was greeted with a resounding 'No Goggy no potty' (I'm Goggy!). So rather than push the point we have decided to leave for a few more months. My daughter laughed and said I told you so!! Really special few days with her and I feel very blessed indeed.

I am meeting a friend and her son tomorrow as he is thinking of coming to Southampton University. Seems incredible how the time has passed as I remember seeing him as a babe in arms.

It was interesting today talking about bi-polar disorder. We tend to think about any form of mental illness in a different way to other illnesses eg things we can see, like a broken leg. Why, I don't know, but I am very glad to see that more is being done to remove that stigma.

And I also spoke to one of the people on my 'would love to interview' list!!! John Sargeant today - and he was as lovely as I imagined. I am really looking forward to seeing how he and Kristina do in Strictly Come Dancing!

Oh forgot to say - had my hair done and went slightly darker for winter and it took on a worrying slightly green tinge! Happily two washes on it seems to be OK but I was worried I would have to be called Shrek!!!

Have a great weekend
