Shockingly, life’s still going fairly well for me! We’re pushing a fortnight now where I’ve been relatively happy!
Things still seem to be going well with the new man in my life! He came to my house after work on Friday and I was really excited to see him, how weird is it that I miss him when I don’t see him when we’ve only known each other 3 weeks?
We went to the zoo on Saturday and had an absolutely lovely day! Abigail properly LOVED it! She was so excited, she was running backwards and forwards round all the animals like a crazy lady! It was lovely to see her enjoying herself so much! I know I don’t tend to blog about her an awful lot, which is a little weird cos she’s the biggest and best thing in my life! She’s 5 now (going on 50 I think sometimes) and she’s a proper little character. She had me and the new fella marching around the zoo following the map and everything! All in all we had a lovely day, Abigail said her favourite bits were seeing the Giraffes, penguins and Meer cats (she even gave us an impression of a meer cat… so cute!) and because she’s been such a good girl he bought her a teddy giraffe from the gift shop (she’s called it Baby Giraffe) which she thinks is the best thing since sliced bread!
Saturday night, Abigail went to bed fairly early cos she was wiped out from running around all day so Jodie and Jez came round and had a drink with us (obviously Jodie didn’t cos she’s pregnant)! It was a right laugh, funny how you can have such a good night just sitting in the house and chatting! Jodie and Jez ended up stopping cos Jez wanted a drink so obviously couldn’t drive home, so the fun continued Sunday morning! Mum had arranged with me to take Abigail to see Bob’s grandkids and then go out for some dinner so we all decided we’d take the opportunity to go out for some dinner too! It was really nice again, and we continued to have a laugh! I’m really enjoying the fact that we’ve got lots of plans just lately and I’m seeing more of Jodie than I have for a while. I don’t know if it’s just the fact that I’ve got this new man in my life, or with it being lighter at nights and the weather (sometimes) being fairly decent, but I feel loads happier and have more energy than I’ve had for ages! Even Sue said she’s noticed a difference in me, she says I look really well and I’ve got a sparkle in my eye!
He came round again last night to watch the football, we got some drinks in and Abigail was all ready in her full Liverpool kit! She actually learned last night that a football match has two halves cos I normally send her to bed at half time cos of school, but she’s off this week so I let her stay up! We settled down to watch the match and what a match it was! Went on the full range of emotions, as I always do with Liverpool’s European games! I have to say Arsenal played us off the park for the most of the first half, but I think we started believing again after Sami Hyypia’s astounding header! Then Torres scored another blinder and I thought we were fairly safe at that, but no, in another twist Theo Walcott made an amazing run from one end of the pitch to another and Arsenal equalised, meaning they’d go through on the away goal. Until, Toure brought Babel down at the other end and Stevie G buried the penalty, then just to finish it of Rafa brought Babel on and he made a stunning run to score again. Meaning the score was 4-2 on the night and 5-3 on aggregate. That means we’ve set up yet another Champions League Semi Final with Chelsea for the third time in 4 years!! Not too worried about them like, we won both of the last two!! I’ve been reading the press today and I’m sick of hearing how ‘lucky’ Liverpool were, and how it wasn’t a penalty but the one Arsenal didn’t get last week should have been… blah blah blah, at the end of the day, the penalty was awarded this week, it wasn’t last, and Liverpool won on the night… no amount of moaning and complaining about the ‘injustice’ is going to change that! Keep hearing how ‘lucky’ Liverpool are in Europe… surely their European record for the past 4 years speaks for itself…? Here’s some pictures from another amazing night at Anfield….

I’m hoping for more progression with my Psychologist lady tomorrow… Then I’m off work Friday and Monday cos Abigail’s off school so looking forward to spending some time with her! I’m going to move all the furniture round in my bedroom tonight cos I’m in the mood for a good fettle and clean up!
