Holy crap!

I'm moving in on Pancake Day!!

How cool is that!?


After we've unpacked and everything we can chill out in front of the TV with pancakes! Lots and lots of pancakes!!


:D



Yum!


I've missed pancake day for the last five years in a row! I refuse to miss it this year!!

I'm ashamed...

Absolutely gutted. I know that I hadn't written anything in my blog for a while but for TWO WHOLE MONTHS?!

I'm a little bit disappointed with myself. In my defence, I am out of the house for twelve hours a day five days a week - travelling to and from work on trains and buses, blah blah blah... And one of the last things I wanna do is set up my laptop downstairs so that I can get the internet on it (our home computer is overrun with viruses and we don't have wireless, unfortunately...)


:(


Of course, that doesn't excuse anything.


SPECSAVERS


Life at Specsavers is going well. I think I know enough now to feel comfortable in doing any task that anyone's asking for me to do for them. People are starting to trust me with doing different jobs around the store. But I still haven't finished my three month probation though. Everyone tells me that I've got nothing to worry about but I can't help it. It'll be the biggest weight off my shoulders ever.


I've read one of the shittest books in the whole world. 'No Time for Goodbye' by Linwood Barclay. I bought it because it was a murder mystery and I never read them. And this book made me realise that I never read them for a bloody good reason!


I've put down a deposit for a house to rent in Didsbury in Greater Manchester and will be moving in on Tuesday. Ecstatic. I feel like I've been waiting for this day all my life. Can't wait to have my own little personal space again where I can start writing properly, hopefully.


And I've also walked in on my younger brother snogging his chavvy girlfriend on the settee on Valentine's Day Evening over a bottle of wine, some beers and a toffee cheesecake.


The bleeding romantic.


Not a lot has happened really. I've just been working my arse off at work and not been very social at all. But as soon as I get my arse to Manchester, that's going to change.


List of things to do on arrival in Didsbury:-


--- Get fit and healthy (I'm actually craving healthy food and reeeeeally wanna join dance classes and the gym),


--- Pass my probation period at work,


--- Start writing properly again,


--- Start planning a holiday (preferrably to New York or Las Vegas or any other phenomenal city in the US)


--- Generally be a happier human being and a general breeze of fresh air for everyone around me.


I haven't been the happiest bunny of late but that's all soon to change.


To be continued...


P.S. I need another hair cut.
