DIY. We all do it. At some stage anyway. Even if half a wall is missing, us blokes will still try and put that magic floating shelf up there. But today, I'm talking in terms of a theoretical type of DIY, rather than with a hammer, a chisel and some Polyfilla.
Today, I'm talking about fixing things in life. Yes, I know, being very philisophical the last few weeks, but a lot of arguments have led to a lot of thinking, and specifically about certain things.
Today was spent at a Business Enterprise competition, and even though we lost, I took a great deal out of today. Not because we lost to some absolute arses who believe that cockiness, loud posh voices and brash presentations who believe that is enough to get themselves out in the big wide world (not that I'm bitter or anything...), but because of what happened during today when I was away.
Today, Isobel grew. And grew. And grew. And I'm so proud of her today. The big problem got 'fixed' as such, and most of it was a culmination of chats between myself, her and Max. And we've finally got somewhere today. 3 days hard work comes down to one word, which was finally uttered and everything was 'forgiven'. And the way she dealt with it all just made me smile. Calmly, cleverly and happily. Which is the first time I've seen her do that.
And she Did It (Your)Herself. DIY (sorta...). Hence the title! Oh I am clever.
I think that even though they aren't specific personal blogs at the minute, my days are seeping their way into the writing, and if they aren't aimed at specific people, they are aimed at something to do with them. If that makes any sense whatsoever.
DIY, Wednesday 25th November 2009 is yours.
(P.S. Got something very excited lined up for December - will reveal all next Monday. But its all very exciting, so keep reading!)
(P.P.S. And for those who asked, yes there will be an entry on Christmas Day. And I can't predict you that will be! No seriously, I can't...)
