Blowing in the wind

Some days feel like real change is happening.  Today was one of those.

Today my thoughts of change ended up focusing on Pepper.  A little bit tired after my day, a little bit frustrated by the elements of change I have no control over, a little bit lonely as I came home and certainly fed up of the rain that plagued Norwich this afternoon.  All I wanted to do was dig out the biggest glass I could find, fill it with wine and lose myself on the sofa for the night.  Except now, I had a little ball of fur dancing and squeaking at me as I opened the door.  Forcing me back out of the house, where I realised that the sun was shining, the humid air had cleared and it's a really beautiful evening, Pepper made me smile as she pranced along and took me for my evening walk.  


I'm still tired and looking forward to my glass of wine, but it is with happy thoughts of the changes I've had in the past twelve months.  I am extremely excited about getting married to Gav next year, his rally (sponsor him here!) reminds me that the biggest change in our lives is coming here faster than we expect.  I love coming home to Pepper and will never want to change back to the nights where we don't get to wander along the river.  I'm ridiculously proud of Gav for changing his path and returning to school.  I cannot wait until I have completed my own 'learning' and have my evenings back to myself...and find out exactly where that will take me.  I'm even looking forward to the change of bedclothes that I've organised for myself tonight.

Other life changes, out of my control, well they can only mean good things in the long run.  

Just like the storm that cleared the air, it's all change here.
