~ City Driving ~

My biggest fear is driving in the city - I have only done it a couple of times and only because I had to!! but yeserday I did it again and yes it was another case of the "have to's" We had to go to go to Camberwell yesterday to pick up our new car - long long story but this Nissan dealership in Melbourne was the only one in Vic. with the exact car DH wanted - that too is a long story - the car is a Nissan Maxima but it was all about the colour & optional extras and of course he wanted a 2006 model so that is why we ended up there......and of course to get there we had to drive so we then had 2 cars to get back home!!!!!........sooooooooo I had to drive in the city....oh my!! my heart was pounding in Burke road congested with trams, cars and shoppers crossing the road oblivious to the traffic.....but I did it!!! and I feel quite a sense of achievement not just because I survived the ordeal of driving but I did it feeling so crappy - yesterday was one of my bad days I had the tremors really bad and my head was thumping and that was before we even left home....I gather my nerves probably didn't help these symptoms. What's that saying?? - you can do anything if you set your mind to it" I'm going to try and apply that theory to today as well - I am currently in my PJ's not feeling 100% but with a heap of things to do today DH is working, my eldest DD is at the Footy ( she is a sports trainer ) and my 14 year old DD is not in the mood to help her mother - I have a heap of housework to catchup on and then a few things to finish making for a Scrapbooking Retreat I am co-hosting in just a few weeks - so wish me luck - I think I can do it!!!
