10 years in 10 months-month 5

 Half way through the challenge, and this month has been rather successful.

Learn something new

I've been continuing with my Greek course and have restarted pub quizzes again. I've had lots of 'ah cool' moments with new facts... But whether I can recall them is another matter.

Dress in skimpy clothing

For my mum's birthday meal, I wore a sheer bodysuit that with one wrong move would have had me flashing the whole restaurant. But I felt kind of good in it. The fact it was covered up most of the evening with a cardigan because it was so cold is another matter.



Get drunk

While I haven't officially 'got drunk' I did take advantage of not driving when we went to the pub by having a bacardi and coke. Not very adventurous but considering before I would have jus had a coke, I will definitely be making this drink my go to tipple.


Wear make up

I finally bought some new make up... OK it was cheap stuff from Primark, but I got a gorgeous eye shadow pallette and some lip gloss. Even if the lipstick does come off in about half an hour. 


Have a fling

Due to being poisoned by carbon monoxide, I met a lovely man who came to fix it. He asked me questions, made conversation, was funny and laughed at my jokes. Plus he was very easy on the eye. The downside... He had a photo of his girlfriend as his phone background. But it was nice to experience a real life crush again. 

Have a solid group of friends

I've been the most social I have in years this month. I've got back in touch with a friend I haven't seen before Covid and had a lovely afternoon catching up. I also saw my oldest friend with her baby girl. I video called a friend who lives in Scotland, reignited a Pre-covid tradition with one of my best friends and spent time with another close friend. I've also had a family gathering and celebrated Burns Night with 'framily' who I've known my whole life. It's so nice having things to look forward to and seeing people again.

Travel

While I haven't travelled this month, I have booked a trip to go back to a place I fell in love with last year, have finalised a trip I booked pre covid and have begun to plan another city break abroad. Now I just need to find the funds for it...

I've really enjoyed this month and finally feel as though I'm doing stuff again!
