I was visiting Boneman and he had this cool 'personality test thing so I tried it - seems fairly accurate to me!!

Your Dosha is Pitta
You have a quick mind, a gift for persuasion, and a sharp sense of humor.You have both the drive and people skills to be a very successful leader.Argumentative and a bit stubborn, you have been known to be a little too set in your ways.But while you may be biased toward your own point of view, you are always honest, fair, and ethical.
With friends: You are outgoing and open to anyone who might want to talk to you
In love: You are picky but passionate
To achieve more balance: Be less judgmental of those around you, and take cool walks in the moonlight.

HAPPY NEW YEAR 2007

Can you believe it is 2007 already! It does not seem like that long since everyone was celebrating the millenium [ both at 2000 and at 2001!] Even in that short time so much has changed - computers are smaller and cheaper, digital has arrived in a big way, a lot of people's atitudes about the world and the environment have changed.
Personally -
2000*My mother died after falling ill in Majorca, and spending 10 weeks in intensive care[bad year]
2001*I got a full time job again(after ten years of seasonal posts)[a good year];
2002*I met someone I could call my soul mate [a good year];
2003*We got married [a very good year],
2004*then we discovered he had inoperable advanced cancer [six months to the day we married] and he died a very short 8 weeks later [ after being told he had 8 - 12 months or so] and 8 weeks laer I was told I had Thyroid cancer - which was operated on and removed [a dreadful year];
2005*got an all clear about my cancer (benign), my 'workplace' amalgamated with another charity in April and then the whole charity was liquidated by the Directors in the December [21st] [started good ended bad- year];
2006* my best friends ended their relationship after 17 years [but still work together?!!] ; I was back into seasonal work ; got a life insurance payout, so used that to put in a new kitchen, new carpets for a few rooms and changed my car. [OK year]

Did you make any New Year resolutions?

I did - after seeing a photograph taken of me from the side I have decided that for the sake of my health and fitness
- I have to lose weight, tone up and get fit.
I am going to join the local 'Rosemary Conely Diet and Fitness club' when it reopens on Monday 8th, and work at changing my lifestyle!

Watch this space for updates on my progress from time to time!
