Sometimes life is like standing on a stepping stone in the middle of a roaring river.

The good thing about stepping stones is there's never just one.
If you keep moving from one to the next, eventually you'll reach the other side.

Sun is shinin'

So, I've managed a week of my Scottish man being in another country. It's quite hard to believe that it's been a whole week, but it seems everyone was right and the time he's away will go really quickly.

  Today I've spent a lot of time sitting in the sun, just enjoying the unusual sensation of being warm in Scotland. We've actually had quite a few good days over the last week, and I've been making the most of it. I still find it fascinating to watch my skin change colour when it gets some sunlight, probably just because it doesn't happen all that often. I can only really watch the process on my arms though; I am now absolutely convinced that my legs no longer have the ability to tan. I've worn dresses and skirts and cropped trousers, my legs probably haven't seen this much daylight since primary school, and still I look like the bottom half of my body belongs to someone else. Oh well, spray tan it is! 

  This week I've started going to the gym again, and I wonder why I ever stopped. I was in there for an hour and because of that I've felt good about myself all day. That's a pretty good input:outcome ratio. I'm also going to Boteco for salsa tonight so we'll see how well I cope with two lots of exercise in one day. I think I'll be fine, just because salsa is much more fun than the gym.

  Still no news on the job front, so I'd better go and get on with this application that I've been staring at for two days.
