I then had the joys of my dentist in my lunch hour, who I'll admit is slightly strange, but on the whole, very lovely. However, I needed two fillings so it wasn't a very pleasant encounter. Two injections later and the whole left hand side of my face was completely numb so I spent the rest of the afternoon sat in work looking like a complete idiot. And to top it all off, my new fringe just won't sit right, and seems to jut out at all sorts of odd angles.
There's a whole other bunch of stuff that happened today, but that's much too long to go into... but it was, in a nutshell, "one of those days".
Desperate to snap myself out of the grumpy mood I could feel myself digressing in to, I tried to think of something positive to focus on. It was then that I realised it was exactly 100 days until I began my brand new adventure! Suddenly things didn't seem so bad at all and I could feel a smile playing on my lips the more I marveled over it.
By the time the boys picked me up, I was practically giddy with excitement and desperate to start planning for the day that we will be leaving the Island and embarking on our travels.
In just 100 days we will be jetting off to Sri Lanka to begin what I hope will be the best year of our life. Who knows where things will lead? I feel amazed that it's only 100 days to go as we've been counting it down for so long, but finally its starting to feel real.
When life gets a bit tough, or a bit boring, it's so nice to have something exciting to look forward to. Today has made me appreciate just how much I need to get away from this Island and create a life for myself where I'm able to live out my wildest fantasies.
Life is too short to live a mediocre life. It's time to start living it to the full!
Happy again :)
Plus I've just demolished this. Yum.
