Xanadu!

Hello Ladies! I am very chatty this weekend, I think posting twice in a couple of days is a first! But I just feel so good I thought I would spread it around! 10 things I like:
- Xanadu video, I heard this tune on the radio the other day and it inspired me too you tube it. What a video!
Olivia nexton john is a bona fide fox, what do you expect from a lady that played 16 at 30, lived most of her adult life in an international jetset menage a trois and beat breast cancers ass! I love the bit where she sings soulfully into the eyes of a man with a perm doing the splits on a tightrope! I think I just found the theme for my future wedding with bridesmaids in halter tops doing jazz runs down the aisle.
-This special paint you can get that turns any wall into a white board!
-My new home fitness DVD, the Tracey anderson method. It is like a combination of really hard core eighties dance aerobics and pilates done standing up and the arms section is great. I am naturally quite a muscular person with a background in dance and ballet and gym and it is not often I can't complete leg reps but this video is a killer plus you aren't just hitting the same groups all the time! If its good enough for madonna its good enough for me!
-I am scheming a plan to own my own home. My living situation is complex what with the custody of the niece and all and I have been renting, sharing, compromising for years and I gotta say I am sweeter, nicer and more appreciative person for it! Now however my Mum and I are cooking up a scheme whereby i can maybe build my own little place basically on her drive, it is tiny BUT it would be my own. This way I get privacy and security and the niece gets me plus my mum plus her uncle, a whole extended family and a lot of continuity and family and support. This will be especially important when I start full time work in 18 months cause if I want to do surgery I have to put some hours in. I can see a great plan forming and i feel dizzy at the thought of some private space!
-tinned rhubarb and custard
-True blood
-David attenboroughs planet earth series, I just finished the last DVD. what an awe inspiring show. I cannot recomend it highly enough,kids love it too.
-cute men, I met one yesterday, he was attached but I was just looking. I like thin lips on fellas, is that wierd ?maybe cause mine are very full and opposites attract? WEll this one had these nice thin, sardonic lips and a big nose and lots of little black hairs on the back of his arms and peeping out of the neck of his t shirt, that plus tall is my ideal, its nice to be reminded it does exist
-friends
-following your heart. 6 years ago I first thought about med school. I didn't have the qualifications, money, the family support, any connections or even a regular place to live and I had just gained custody of a very distressed four year old but i KNEW that taking care of her and going to medschool were the right things to do and that if i put all my efforts into them everything would be ok. The last 6 years have been the best of my life. I had to put some stuff on the back burner; socailising, spending money on myself, sex, men but the rewards have been so great. In 18 months I will be earning a good wage, buying a property and loving my job, whilst my niece is just growing into a more and more accomplished and lovely young woman by the second. When she is 18 I will be 38! I,m wearing pretty well, plenty of time to have a fabulous non domesticated life then!
Love on a sunday
