Brae. A gay woman's tale!

We are half way through Ros’s flit to her new flat…. just a few more boxes to pick up and that should be her done…. and I’m looking forward to our first night there… the views across the Forth to Arthur’s Seat are magnificent… and it was lovely to sit on the balcony watching ships sail up the Forth.

We are off on our first holiday together soon…which includes a weekend activity meet up with a lesbian group… we are Rage Buggying, being let loose on the Archery range and having a group bbq… but will also have a few days to explore the Shrewsbury area… really looking forward to it!

There has been a few things going on that made me step back from life and think about the knock on effects that people have on our life… and how we sometimes miss the subtle signals that should make us take time to understand and listen to people.

Don’t get me wrong, there are a lot of people out there who say and do things to excuse their bad behaviour (I found that out!) … and because we are so used to this, we tend to ignore or miss the signs of the one’s who really do need help.

Honesty and truthfulness is a rare things these days … and I have to say I was the most sceptical of people especially after the lies from my ex and 2 really bad dating experiences … I had given up … happy to stick to friends and chat to people on line … then I met Ros … I have to smile now when I think of the times I said to my friends “I want someone just like my ex … but honest” … I didn’t think she existed … Im glad to say she does and is a huge part of my life now.

Who would have thought …

So ….

Ros had to go to a meeting today and left me in charge of boiling eggs for tea tonight …

But I had a phone call about work, then checked out my car insurance … then had a wee play on Facebook, then spoke to a family about additions to their tribute ….

Then there was one loud bang … the cat shot out of the kitchen, down the decking and was hairing down the garden …

Then I remembered about the eggs … oops!  Ros will not be happy …
