Wow, I have been sooo slack with my blog posts! Typical really… The thing is though, that this blog was really (although visible to anyone who finds it) just for me… Something that I could have always and look back on over the years… So the only person I am disappointing is myself haha! Anyhooo, I guess I should do a little update.

A while ago in one of my posts, I had to run off to look at a house to buy. We LOVED it and bought it! Well… Almost. We have exchanged contracts on it and are currently living in it (renting from the people we are buying from) until settlement. It’s SO exciting! I cant wait until the house is totally ours so we can start doing things to it… We are going to rip out the kitchen and do a beautiful new one and also make the ‘garage’ into a pirate den haha! The reason I say ‘garage’ is because technically it IS a garage but we dont use it as such. Currently there is just a lot of junk in it that we are going through slowly and a table and chairs which we often hang out at.

Greg has moved in with us which is fun. We are all having a blast so far! For some reason living with boys (although they tend to be a tad more messy that girls) is far easier than living with women. Maybe because its less catty? Who knows…

Mum is in Europe so we are looking after Sophie… After Micky died I just couldnt handle the idea of strangers taking care of her, so she is here with us for six weeks. She is a pleasure to have - even though she likes to get on the dining table when we are out of the house!!!! Anyhow, I will miss her when shes gone back to Mums and I even think she will be a litttle lonely.

Mic and I arent ‘trying’ for a baby anymore… We (well I) have decided that I am not 100% ready. Even though I dont think anyone is ever 100% ready, I just dont think I’m in the right place just yet. It’s OK though, I’m not anti-baby at all and still look forward to having one someday, whenever that may be. The thought of children is still so exciting to me which just makes all these decisions all the more difficult.

Quick kudos to my friend Jen… In exactly 7 days she goes into surgery to have gastric banding done. She is an amazing woman and I just love every single bit of her! I am so proud of her for making the choice to change her life and just wish I was closer to her to give her lots and lots of hugs and snuggles. Check out her blog on her journey: www.anotherskinnybitch.com

Another little thing on Jen - not sure if I have mentioned it before in the blog, But her and Marc have asked me to be Godmother to their little angel, Cooper. I dont even know how to put into words what that means to me, but I can tell you that its a LOT. My heart gets all full and warm and fuzzy when I think about it. I love them all so darn much and am so grateful to have them all in my life.

Anyways, better run - got chores to do… Joy.

Catch you next time!
