Date

I went on a date last night. I have to say, it felt really nice to be dressed nicely and to feel fairly confident. It made such a difference. I wore a dress, heels and very sheer tights with a seam up the back. I know it's only a stone and a half, but when I notice things like that it makes me really happy. I felt confident walking into the bar and that's all I want. To like myself enough to allow others to like me too.


This morning, I was feeling so confident that I tried on an office dress which I purchased when I was about 19 years old. It has never been worn as I put on too much weight pretty soon after buying it and it has just been hung in my wardrobe looking sad and reminding me that I am a failure. It fits. And it looks fantastic. I am utterly thrilled and am wearing it to work.


'tis the season of joy and I am brimming with it. I wish I could spread some to my friends who all seem to be going through a tough time at the moment.
