I am 34, Scottish, separated with no children. I was training to be a nurse, but unfortunately I have not been able to complete that, due to a bereavement and complications surrounding funding. I still work in the care field, but am looking for a change of direction/impetus. I can be both serious, and ridiculously frivolous, shy and yet exuberant when in company I am comfortable with, intelligent and frighteningly stupid too!! My family (Dad, 2 brothers, sister-in-law) tell me that I can be very exuberant (my staid brother would say over-dramatic), but that is just who I am when I am happy and comfortable. I am utterly incapable of giving a short, direct answer to a question, which does occasionally irritate me! Am definitely a girlie-girl. Every time my 5 year old niece see me, she always says she likes my earrings/necklace/..something!!! She is a very pink and lilac little girl herself, and is my wee princess...I love her, and my nephew to bits! They are adorable. I love cats and dogs...have 1 cat, no dogs just now. Others have described me as insightful, articulate, loud, quiet (conversely!!), strong (will and mind), loving.APRICOTAAdventurousPProfoundRResponsibleIInnocentCCreativeOOutrageousTTrustworthyGet Your Own Name Acronym As a randomly generated acronym....that actually comes pretty close to the mark! My childhood heroine was Wonder Woman..and a good friend found this graphic for me, which I just HAVE to display!!

Quote of the Day #3

Tuesday, August 14th, 2007, 1:33 am

Oh Mamma Mia!!!!!!

 

After a not particularly great day yesterday (I went to the walk, but it kind of back-fired on me a little), I have had a completely sleep free night!!! And, so the 'motto' that came to mind was....

 

 

Make Hay While The Sun Shines.

 

Ok, ok so the sun wasn't shining, and it was night time...gimme some poetic licence here!! I'm suffering! I did make excellent use (I think) of the time. I eventually gave up at about 4, 4:30 am and decided to do some 'organising' etc of my ivillage stuff. So I went to the member list of one of the groups that I have joined, and invited them all to be one of my contacts!! However, the thing I am most proud of is that I managed to send each and every one a wee personalised message, usually commenting on something from their page. And if you go back to the Quote of the 'Day' #1, then you will see that it was no mean feat for me to 'put myself out there' like that, so I am totally going to blow my own trumpet and say.....Yay Me!! Especially as my fingers have now totally forgotten how to type. Some folks were members already, but in total that was 10 messages/contacts. Obviously it is difficult to know whether you want to invite a (more or less) total stranger into one element of your online life, but if you are having doubts, then I hope you will hang fire until you get to know me a bit better!

 

I am absolutely b**** ahem!!! Sorry!
