According to some AOL article, there are 15 types of men/relationships women go through. Well 14 really, but they clearly thought 15 sounded better so included doing a Katy Perry (Or doing a Jess ;)). The list started with first love and ended with "the one" and had most things in between, the 'one night stand', holiday romance, etc etc.

Still on the bright side I reckon in one way or another I've now gone through 9 of them, so only 5 to go til me and Mr Right start living happily ever after

I need to stop reading chick lit. They all seem to go from one relationship to the dream one in no time, yet after nearly 3 years I've yet to have one show more than a passing interest :-\

Despite how that might sound I'm not desperate, well not much. It jsut would be nice.... But I'm gonna try and focus on the positives. I can live perfectly well and happily without a man. I have my (mostly) fantastic kids, a gorgeous dog, a roof over my head, enough money to have all the necessities, and even occasional treats. Its a beautiful day, I live in a country where I'm free to do pretty much what I please, and I have my health. I could go for a walk in the lovely spring sunshine (I said could, not will!), I have amazing friends, an internet connection ;) and wine in the fridge :)

In general life is good, but at this moment, I still feel a bit quiet :( Oh well, life goes on and all that

Smartie news.....she came home on Thursday, is hopping around with no real problems. Shes not meant to do much more than lie around. I have put a stair gate up, and keep reminded her not to jump, at all! Not to say hello, not onto the sofa, not onto the sleepers in the garden to get to one of her sniffing spots. Daft dog. She goes back to vets tomorrow for a check up. I was going to take pics yesterday, but I can t work out how to use the digital camera my mum gave us :-x It might just have dead batteries.
