Every cloud has a silver lining.

Ciao,

Well howdy there blog. How's life been treating you? I have been extremely absent online these past few months and just reading bits of my last post still brings tears to my eyes. So today I am going to write a MUCH more positive post. A sort of life catch up. 

So lets list the big changes in my life in the last few months:

1. I have started to learn to drive. Trying to get a start on my 30 things before I'm 30 bucketlist...which I need to finish writing now I think about it. Lessons are getting better and better which is a relief. I started well and then 3 lessons in had such a disastrous lesson it took weeks to regain the confidence. 

2. I passed my theory test. Woop woop. Only more lessons and practical to go now...so no pressure. 

3. I have started a new job. After 4 years I have finally closed the door on my journey at the tuition company I worked for, although not entirely. I won't lie I went to visit last weekend and have also been in contact with some parents and kids. BUT the big news is the new job! I am now working at my old secondary school which is strange and wonderful at the same time. I am working as a Learning Support Assistant and have really enjoyed my first two weeks getting to know the children I work with but also getting to know the many teachers who taught me as actual human beings as opposed to robot teachers who only exist in school. It's so weird to be in the same environment,which I only left three short years ago, but on the other side of it all. Now I'm allowed in the staff corridor and staff room. Oh the luxury! 

I think that is about it for my life catch up, three pretty big milestoney life thingys. I have realised that I am a 'every cloud has a silver lining' kind of person, I'm making the best of a bad situation. I will not let cancer steal my life and happiness. 

Ciao for now...
