Well, It’s midnight on 16th March, 2012, and today I had confirmation that I WILL BE CARRYING THE TORCH!!!!!!!! So excited! I am still waiting to hear about the Ceremonies auditions (was exploding with anticipation this morning that I e-mailed them – they said “within the next week!” Sooo ! We wait) – not too hopeful as by the end of three hours dancing I was knackered, legs were shot, but am pleased to say that hips did good! 🙂 Haven’t danced so solidly for years, but it was SOOOOOOO much fun! Loved every minute and even if I don’t get in, I will hold that in the memory bank for many a year ahead.
But the TORCH – soooooo bloody brilliant – will be in Christchurch, Dorset – a little way from home, but I don’t care. So proud, just wish Mum and Dad were here to be a part of it. Can’t wait, and we get to keep it, possibly – how awesome is that.
To all my hippy friends, this is for you. We have come one darned long way over the past few years (Lord – never thought I would be saying that when all this started! A few weeks more like! Lol!) It is for my family (my husband, three children, and my MIL) who have had to put up with my bloody mindedness, my determination, my independence, and my competitiveness – all of which have made me a nightmare to live with! It is for my friends, who have supported me throughout, most of whom haven’t really a clue what the operations entail, just that I needed a bit of time off from running! I wouldn’t want it any other way! It is also for my surgeon and his crew, Mr Johan Witt, of the London Clinic. He is an awesome surgeon, and nice with it! You don’t often get that all in one package! And, lastly, it is for those in the world who are putting up a much greater fight than I have – you inspire me.
