Not Just a Granny

hello!!!! I’m back!! 🙂 Yes, Unbelievably, I have been away for so long but now I’m back.  Life has given me another fork in the road and as usual you can only go in one direction, so here I am…..back on my original road…..

Last week, on one day, the Universe decided to throw me a double whammy of bad news and also a break down in communication regarding the future of my business.

As as result of that I decided to shut down my facebook profile,

way out…..

close down my business and give up the lease on the house I have been sharing with my daughter for the last 3 years. She has been desperate to have her own place and only been staying here because she was worried about me.  When I moved in 3 years ago it was meant to be for 6 months……we got way too comfortable and frankly it suited us both at the time….but she is so ready to have her own place….so since I have now decided to go off exploring again, she is free to head off and find her own place.

a new direction….

So, from here on in I will be blogging more regularly and travelling again 🙂 Hooray!

Going back a bit……the reason for my sudden change of direction came about because of three things:

1) After many years of unexplained and many times severe blackouts, my daughter’s Cardiologist tells her that the probable reason for the severe blackouts is that her heart keeps stopping….yeah…I kid you not. It seems she has in fact had a near-death experience just recently and last year when I discovered her unresponsive and despite slapping, shouting and shaking her, still got no response, her heart had in fact stopped.   Thankfully I did just keep hitting, shouting and shaking her coz after a short while she came around and we whisked off to hospital……so lets hope they find a way of sorting this out.

2) the bastard ex-husband who told her that he wanted children but not with her has only gone and not only got the house he denied her, but remarried and had a child. To say that I was filled with fury would be an understatement.  She has struggled for over 4 years now to come to terms with his wretched treatment of her and the horrible stuff she found out after she left and now he has the audacity to go and have a child while she is struggling to get back on her feet emotionally.  There should be a way of dealing with people like him.

3) I’ve been working on the 3 Days in London business for 4.5 years now, building credibility, learning about London, creating a website, building a twitter following, writing books, building an App and providing as much information to visitors as possible… and the next step was the redesigned website….which when I finally got the link, what the website developer had done was so not up to scratch that I bloody nearly freaked…actually I lie….I did freak.  So that little piece of joy came round about the time I heard the above 2 items…so all three things in a short space of time and I am like OKAY!!! universe that’s enough bullsh!t. time for a change 😉

They always say that things come in threes

things always come in three’s

So the long and the short of it is that we are now definitely giving up the lease on the house, my daughter is finally going to find a place of her own near the coast which she has been wanting to do for a few years now and I am going to pack my life up in boxes, start working full time again so I can sort out my debt and then I am going to buy the campervan/caravan that I have been wanting for ever such a long time and go travelling.

…time to travel….

 Time to become a nomad once again.

So keep your eye on this blog and keep up with my new adventures. I will of course still blog about London……I adore London and it will always be in my blood.

So as the sun goes down on my current life, so it will rise again on the new….
