Today I...
My site’s brand new with lots more to come - so check in regularly. I see it as a great big 'library of life' packed with advice - feel free to use the tips, tricks and techniques in my articles!
What's on my mind today? Well I'm annoyed - was in central London and found so many stores with Christmas stuff - I don't want to think about it in October. Have you given any thought to what Christmas really means to you? Every year I try and move further away from it being just a mad whirlwind of presents, presents, and more presents - with loads of drinks and food chucked in. When did Christmas become a time to gorge on everything? Instead I want this year to be simpler - just being with those I love…er… and if a few of them want to surprise me with a present, well, I won't look a gift horse in the mouth!
I did my weekly dream analysis slot on George Lamb's 6 Music show and it was the usual mayhem - I teased George and Mark (his co-host) about standing me up last week as they were over-booked. Haven't been stood up for years - since I was last single - there's always one person who blows a date out of the water. Recently I teased Mark about his slightly erotic dream about George. I suggested Mark see the fab Gay icons exhibition at the National Gallery - which might be over now!
Yesterday I gave an interview to Mike on the breakfast show on BBC Cumbria radio about the age gap in some relationships - if under 10 years then no probs but over 10 years I find people have more issues. See my advice on age gaps in the 'love and romance' section.
I'm v. excited because a close pal has found a new boyfriend and is positively fizzing with the ‘wonderfulness’ of it. And that sense of excitement and well-being rubs off of them - and we get to share in the lurve! As we joked down the phone today in Wet, Wet, Wet style, "Love is all around"! TODAY’S THOUGHT: So enjoy it if a friend of yours is head over heels.
Also I'm trying to sort out some new book ideas - lots of topics to choose from - but the big question on my mind is: what do people most want to read about nowadays when it comes to self help? I'm doing a little poll by asking people I come across what they'd like to read about.
Be happy today! x
