A Belated Merry Christmas!

Merry Christmas everyone!

I'm well aware that this is a very late blog but - in my defence - I was at my Nan's for Christmas Eve/Day so couldn't get online and then went to Dads, followed by my boyfriends (we'll call him Drummer Boy) for further celebrations. I got home this afternoon and have finally had some time to sit down and write to you all!

So, did you have a good one?

Mine was fun, although it was the first year that I've felt like an 'adult' and therefore sat watching as my cousins ripped through a mountain of gifts whilst I opened numerous cards with cheques and cash in. Don't get me wrong, cash is great (and we all know I need the money at the moment!) but it was odd to be counted as an adult instead of a child.

I was thoroughly spoilt by my Drummer Boy yesterday and I'm currently writing from underneath a Snuggie!! It has swiftly become my favourite gift of all time, I'm never moving from this sofa!

My little cat was very happy to see me after five days apart and she is purring very loudly from the other side of the sofa. My neighbour (we'll call her Kitten Girl) and a friend from uni (we'll call her Blondie) very generously kept an eye on her whilst I was away but I still felt very guilty for leaving her! But I'm pretty sure that all the treats and the new collar that I brought her have made up for it...

In other news, I've finally found myself a job! After four months of hunting, I've found a job in a nursery over in Bristol and I start on the 4th of January. Phew! I'm very excited to start and will, of course, keep everyone updated on how I do!

This week will be mostly taken up with thank you card writing, buying new work clothes, going through the massive file of stuff that I have to read for my new job and, more importantly, preparing for New Years Eve. Usually I avoid it and just spend it curled up with my Drummer Boy but this year, as I have a place of my own now, we decided to have a small shindig. Some friends of ours are coming over for drinks, music and Wii and it should be a good laugh, I can't wait!

Anyway, that's enough for now, I hope you've all had a very merry Christmas and enjoy your New Year!

Stay happy,
