Well things are happening. Billy and Oily have moved out in disgust. We are moseying along without a sense of urgency, apart from when we are superstressed. I guess When August comes we will both turn into Type A personalities.

I have no time to do anything at the moment. But appear to waste a lot of time avoiding thinking about how worried I am, which worries me further. Consequently I'm paralysed with worry and the trip to India remains a dissociated fantasy.

I've got lots of other things to worry about in July, go away for a week, work, write one half of a conference paper which is probably the most aversive item on this list.

Priority is to find a retreat, which the lovely Sundeep is looking into, to begin our holiday. Then find a base in the South where we can acclimatise through some volunteer working and then see where life takes us. We have made two or three contacts out there, but nothing has been firmed up. We may have to just play it by ear some of the time, until we are clearer on what the first two months look like

We have both had our leave from work agreed. I've left one half of my job and am taking a sabbatical for one year. Which is really good news for me. When I get back I hope to look for a half time post that will take me in another direction, still related to psychology probably. But hey watch this space.

Next stop vaccinations. Ouch ouch. Pumping loadsa chemicals into me,I don't like ... Help. Sundeep is obviously already on the case.

Mostly I'm excited and can't wait to start planning full time.

That's my first official blog done. See you soon.
