July 21st

This week was our 2nd wedding anniversary - it's hard to believe 2 years have gone by already :) We had a lovely, relaxing weekend away in Hampshire & it was great to get away from it all. We had some great treats like spa treatments an amazing meal out, where we were treated like royalty!

A lot has happened in the first 2 years but hopefully things will finally settle down this year and we will have a less eventful year!!

I'm back to working 4 days a week now - 3 days in the office and 1 day at home so life is a lot busier but I'm coping ok so far & enjoying being back at work.

It's been a very busy 10 days but so good to be able to catch up with so many people. I had a lovely time back home in Cork and it was great to see Charis, Sandra, Bryce & Carolyn and all the family (especially gorgeous baby Hannah), Jessie, Ruth & Gordon & everyone at camp! so sorry to everyone I didn't get to see - there's never enough time!

It was lovely to see all my family too. Heather and I travelled to Galway for Orla's hen weekend and we had a great time with Orla & all her family & friends. Thank you all for a fab weekend! I can't believe the wedding is less 4 weeks away...so looking forward to it already :) It was great to be back at work in Cork and catch up with everyone there, but as usual I didn't have enough time!

We had a nice relaxing weekend and I managed to swim 12 lengths of a swimming pool two days in a row! That was the furthest I had been able to swim since surgery and It feels like a great accomplishment. I felt pretty well, although I was a bit stiff afterwards but it definitely feels like I'm improving.
