March 2008

March is almost over - so here we go again. We are settling in and I think we are both pretty happy here. Today, the weather is miserable, so we haven't really done much at all. Jim has to study most of this weekend, so I just stay in and read and cuddle my little dog.
We had a few visitors this month: First, Jim's mum came to stay with us for a few days before we all went to see Jim's family in Yorkshire for the weekend. We had a lovely time up there and it was great to see everyone. Then, Paul and Liz stayed with us over Easter and even though we were kicked out of the worst pub in the world on the first night, it was a fun and successful weekend - since I finally got my hair cut. I have got a fringe and I think I quite like it! I was pretty scared when I first looked in the mirror and rather shocked, but now I got used to it and I think it was the right time to try out something new.
Last wednesday, Jim and I spent the day in London. We went to see Greg and Caroline and Jim's cousin and her family that I haven't met before. It was a wonderful evening. We all had dinner together and played bowling on Greg's Nintendo Wii - and I have to say I am quite talented. But I am even better in boxing, so we had a go at that and it was showdown time: Rhodes vs. Rhodes and I WON!!!!!! Yeah! Even though I was quite worried that I would hit Greg and Carolines TV, since I was really getting in to that hitting business................. Before we went to see them, we did some sightseeing and had some lunch in Covent Garden.

Mhm..... what else happened....... I applied for a few jobs, but have not been to an interview yet..... mhm..... I guess, March flew by again and now it is almost spring! I can't wait for the rain to stop and for the sun to shine so I can take my doggy dog out for looooooooong walks!

Anyway, I hope all of you are online checking flights regularly, because I miss you and hope to see you again soon!
