Damn me and my forgetful mind. I seriously did completely forget about my blog for a while. Though I’ve had other things on my mind, I still should have updated to let you know I was okay. Which I am. In fact I’m pulling along quite well. Sam and I have been talking about moving to Surrey (London), where I grew up. It’s 200 miles from where we are now but it’s definitely what I want. I’m back and forth from that damned place but this time I want it to be a permanent move and Sam is backing me all the way, so it looks like we’re set to go as soon as we can afford a huge down payment on a flat. Looking to move before Christmas, so we can spend it there together

Other things are generally still pretty crappy. Not been feeling too great the past few weeks but pulling along as normal. Money is very tight and I’ve been living off 8p noodles again, but food is food and I even managed to scrape enough to treat myself to a Chinese dinner tonight!

You may be shocked to know that I also join a gym. Sam paid for my membership and well… best choice I’ve ever made I think! I just want to tone up a little, get back into the small clothes I used to wear. I’m not far off, they’re just a bit tight on the thighs/bum. My top half is still small though my arms are pretty flabby haha But I start as I mean to go on and this diet is the best I’ve been on in a while.

Anyway this was just a quick update as it’s 4am and I’m not really up to typing a whole essay out about how boring and uneventful my life has been the past few weeks. So I’ll stop here and let you get on. But yeah.. I’m still around. Just been a little quiet recently

So after Mr Ham passed away at the dear old age of 2 years and 3 months, Sam was sweet to buy me a new hamster. I wanted the russian dwarf, so fluffy and adorable but the lady in the store pretty much pushed the chinese dwarf onto me instead. I don’t mind though, I’ve had lots of them before and if you treat them well they can be so sweet.

I named her Blossom - she’s so small and pretty, very friendly too - just sits on my hand for ages and eats carrots It’s nice to have a new pet, I was lonely without Mr Ham. Yeah, I’m a little odd. I talk to my hamsters. But still - for as long as I’m house sharing I can’t have a kitten or puppy so have to settle for the smaller creatures. Still, she’s nice

Britt has a new layout up. It’s very summery, go check her out. She’s been a great help these past years. Always there to give me advice and support through the rough times. Also, a special plug to Kristi and Jis for being the amazing people that they are. It’s nice having people to talk to online. Sometimes just talking to Sam and myself (I told you - I’m not normal haha) can be lonely. It will be nice to start working again and make some friends in this new town.

I’ve also been looking into going back to college plus dieting my ass off for my birthday in two weeks. And pushing my claim for compensation since the car accident with my mum when I went to London. Whiplash is painful and I’ve been suffering a lot from it. So some comp’ money would be nice. So anyway - have a good weekend!
