My sister has got engaged!
Her long-term boyfriend proposed to her at dawn yesterday on a dramatic hilltop as the sun came up. Apparently, he did the whole thing, down on one knee, and presented her with a diamond ring.
However, this did come as a bit of a surprise to me, because I remember all through her life from the very earliest days, she always insisted "I'm not getting married, and I'm not having children" (she's still adamant about that second part!) Although I knew her boyf was sweet like that, and I figured he might propose, I never really imagined that she'd say "yes", just because I always had that memory of her rejection of the concept of marriage.
It does, however, rather remind me that I am the oldest of three, and the only one still single (way to make it all about yourself there, Snowdrop!)

Comments Moderation Policy
This blog is intended to be a place where I can develop my thoughts freely and get free and honest responses. Essentially, it is my safe space, and for that reason I have elected to maintain this blog as a moderated space. However, I am opposed in general to censorship and believe that usually the best way to kill a bad idea is with a better one, so very few comments will be rejected. Comments designed to cause offence for the sake of it (e.g. abusive or inflammatory remarks with no other content), or else those that I feel cross a boundary of human decency, are most likely to be rejected.
