Getting There!
Hi friends,
Just letting you know that I am still alive and keeping well. Looking back on one of my post 'New year New start' I made some commitments to myself. With such a strong positive attitude back then- Did I keep to them?
The progress so far is that I still have the positive attitude and I am still striving to be happy.
But, the good news is that I have my driving test next month, and I bought myself a car! - which at the moment is parked up outside my house. I'm so excited..... but the hard part is passing my test. The thought of freedom being not to far away is pushing me... but, with the good there is always a bad, Time... time isn't always on my side. so everything I do is so fast..... My friends tell me to slow down and they are right. However there is only me sailing this ship. if I slow down now I might think that I have missed something if that makes sense.
When I look back at my posts- I can actually see how far I have come. and I am a little proud of myself, but there's still a lot of work before my goal is completed. But I'm getting there!
Some people may not see it as a big deal to drive- but for me it's an adventure- instead of being grounded doing the same old,- and certainly not having to depend on someone else- I'm really looking forward to it.
- Good luck with the driving test nicky. It is a big deal. There's nothing like getting into your car for the first time and having no one sat in the passenger seat running the rule over everything you do. The world becomes a bigger, more exciting place. I really hope it goes well for you :-)
- Thank you all for replying to my post- and thank you for your positivity, its nice to know people have faith in me. all i want do now is stop the smoking - but I suppose I am not in the right fame of mind just yet . I am looking forward tho' and I hope I do pass - so we will have to wait and see- fingers crossed.

- Good for you, Nicky! I think it's probably harder to learn to drive once you're old enough to know the dangers, which most learner-drivers aren't, but you'll appreciate every minute of the new freedom!
- Totally! Such a big deal, good luck. I only got wheelbound when I was about 36, and was delirious with joy at the freedom.... though with the sense (or no sense) of navigation I have it wouldn't have got me anywhere without my GPS - absolute lifesaver. Had to take my test about four times, if I remember correctly....
