I like listening to music from '1960s - present day', of which i have many different cds. I also like listening to music on my cassette tapes too, of which i have many different cassette tapes too, (sum where given to me by my late Dad), sum of which i have bought myself.

I have recently, met somebody new a nice Guy called James , we started out as very good friends, (when ever i came Shopping in Town - Grantham, he would smile & flirt with me. I would respond in the same way back to him, smile & flirt with him 2), we officially started a relationship on Saturday 8th September 2012, (my Birthday Weekend). I met up with him on my 42nd Birthday Monday 10th September 2012, what i didnt realise then, until i was reminded by my Brother in law to be Johnny Tudor last week. Was that my Boyfriend James was my extra Birthday present!!!!, this coming weekend Saturday 27th October 2012, James & i will have been together 7 whole weeks!!!!, (young love its bliss). So i have finally found/got the happiness, that i have truly truly longed for, the Guy of my dreams James Needham!!!!, my Sparkfriends whom i like to call my (Online Family). What more could a woman like me ask for!!!!. Unfortunately since i last wrote the above pieces of information down, things have/had taken a turn for the worse in our relationship, & he ended up splitting up/dumping me. Which was not even my fault what so ever, since things have changed for me, i have now taken a different path 1 which i am very very happy with, i'm still on my Diet, but i'm also trying to get more exercise done, as to get myself even fitter, lol lol lol. In the street, where i live, i now go 4 daily walks, i start from my Flat, going around the corner where Living Health (Beauty Parlour) etc etc, is & walk right up to the top entrance of New Street, & end up right back at my Flat, again i do this 2wice & it. Takes me 30 mins in total altogether, i do this every day, also when the warmer weather comes/the Nights/Lights draw out a bit better, i shall be doing this 2wice a day every day, to keep in shape. The best thing about this, is that i do not think about the past 'nightmare' (you know just exactly who you are James Needham!!!! !!!!), as i have better things to do than think about you lol lol lol lol. I have found new ways to occupy myself, like Yoga & Pilates, these are helping to strengthen up my Back, (i have ongoing Back problems) etc etc, so i am hoping that the more i do Yoga &. Pilates, the more it will help strengthen up my Back, so that i will be Pain free at least in my Back, lol lol which in time will make me feel better in myself, at least that is what i hope will happen lol lol. I have also, (re - started) going, out with my friend, (Jane Hunter) again, her Husband (Robert), just happens to, be my very, very own 'PAIN, IN THE ARSE,' Ex Boyfriend from, years & years, ago!!!! !!!!, lol lol lol, he made a, very very bad, mistake. Years &, years ago whilst, we were 'seeing each other' (he cheated on, me with his, Ex Girlfriend Jaqui,) so i got, my revenge (, in a good, way!!!!), i poured a, full Glass of, Bacardi & Coke, over him!!!!, the bloody bugger, never hurt me, again i can, tell ya!!!!, lol lol lol. Since i last came online, i have started to paint, my luvly luvly Flat so far, i have painted the Hall, Sugar Sweet Pink, (Light Pink) & it looks really really good, my next plan is to paint my Bedroom/Dining Room, a Dark Pink, which would look really really good. I have so many, Wishes & dreams that, i wud like to, achieve + i wud also, like to conquer my, Fears 2 eg going, on an AeroPlane eventually. Whether i will conquer my Fear, of going on an Aeroplane, is an entirely different matter, as most of you know, i live in a Top Floor Flat, which is very very High up, & as i suffer from Vertigo. An ongoing (Fear of Heights) etc etc etc, which makes it totally totally, impossible for me to open up, my Big Windows & look outside, & down below !!!! !!!! !!!!.

I wud like to lose sum weight, so that i can fit into my smaller clothes. I am currently going to a pharmacy to be weighed. I started on 05/05/2011 (thursday) but i go every monday to be weighed.

My program (goal) is i try and go for a walk everyday. My other goal is to go back & re-join the gym again. The last few times i've been to the gym, i always use the bikes & treadmills.

My name is Melanie Louise Jackson (nee Large). I am 43 years of age (Middle Aged) as my Family call me. I have lived there for 9.5 years, i have no children, i was married before, but it wasnt a happy marriage at all, as what i didn't realise was that my Ex Husband Paul Jackson, suffered from Mental Health Issues. Cos he became very violent attacking me and it ended up with him throwing a glass at my face, almost blinding me in the process so in the end he walked out after 6 months of marriage. I am much happier now i'm getting my life back on track (or at least trying to) maybe with your help i can finally be happy. My Birthday is 10th September 1970. Which makes me a Virgo. I like putting things together (eg book shelves, & other pieces of flat pack furniture). I no longer wish to be the fat/overweight person that i am, inside me there is a skinny person just waiting to be set free.

I like going out to the cinema, reading books, watching dvds & videos & listening to music. I like going shopping, the shops i go to in the town where i live are as follows Asda (banned from store at moment) Bonmarche (Clothes shop) Morrisons (Supermarket) Poundland (One stop shop) Sainsburys (Supermarket) Wilkinsons Although i do like popping into charity shops to find sum good bargains (books, cassette tapes, cds, dvds, & videos)

Add a Link Its the sound of the underground, & we gotta fight for this love, before we breakaway, cos silence is golden, & its only words, & love will keep us together, on a night like this, wow, hey baby, my baby love, save your kisses for me, or its goodbye cruel world, forever & ever, goodbye my love. These are all my favourite song titles, all put 2gether, as a kind of ode/poem, Melanie Louise Jackson (aka Grease 31)
