Sorry I have been MIA for a week or so, but life has been pretty hectic around here.
DJ started school on Monday, I've started a blog dedicated to DJ (to keep him away from the ugliness that is me at the moment), I got my uni exam results back and I have been generally trying to juggle everything without a catastrophic mess around me.
First things first, I cannot talk about this week without mentioning how unbelievably proud of DJ I am. Every afternoon this week he has walked straight into school like he is years older. He loves it and I am really proud of how he has made the transition into being a big boy.
I have been faced with a mix of emotions - my little boy is growing up faster than I am ready for him to. But despite this, I am hugely proud of his cheery approach to life and all it has to offer. I think he could teach many of us a lesson about life and how to smile!
In the excitement of DJ starting school, I had forgotten about the release of my exams results yesterday. That was until I had a text from my MIL asking how I had got on!!! Bless her!
I was thrilled that I managed to get a 1st overall for the year, which is a great start for going into my 3rd year. I just need to knuckle down and get focused.
As is always the case with me, I was a very disappointed with myself over one of my exam results. But I know where I need to improve, and I promise myself I will do better. Plus, it hasn't knocked my mark down too much. Yes, I know I am very self-critical, but this is how I strive for improvement!
Finally, despite a shaky start this morning (or should I say a shouty start?) it has ended on a positive. I have just received an email about a volunteering opportunity which I have been waiting to hear about for a while. I'm just waiting for the training dates and then it's all systems go!!!! I just hope that I can find the time to fit it all in.
All in all, a good week...
