My life in my words...

Disappointment

Was looking forward to today because after a wonderful evening it was time for me to see my husband and celebrate our first wedding anniversary :-)

We first hit problems when my friend was dropping me off in Edinburgh due to the problems caused by road closures. I mean these trams are supposed to make transport easier in the future but it sure is damn impossible to get anywhere at all at the moment by car. Especially when the diversions set up take you in the opposite direction from where you ate actually wanting to go.....

Eventually made it to the pickup point and waited for my arranged transport to Carstairs. It struck me that it would be difficult also to get picked up there due to the road closures but myself and another visitor waited in anticipation......

And we waited.......

And waited.....

And waited some more.....

The long and short of it is the driver gave up the ghost and went home while we stood there like complete idiots waiting. Only to find out that our visits were not going to happen as we were not able to get transport. I mean I thought yesterday was supposed to be the unlucky day????

Headed home with a heavy heart as my anniversary celebration with my husband ruined - and it's the only chance I had.... Oh well I guess there is always next year. Paul was also disappointed however we talked on the phone and made the best of a bad situation.

Spent the evening catching up on some tv and feeling sorry for myself. My goodness Paul I miss you so much.
