HELLO SEVEN

(card from Moonpig)

January is flying by, just like the Christmas holidays did. I have so many half written posts and photos that still need editing so although the content is there, sitting down to blog just seems an impossible task at the moment. It’s also quite shameful that I only realised it was my blogs birthday when I clicked on my Timehop this morning as another thing to distract myself from getting out of bed. January is all about getting in to good routines and being a better you and the first thing I think when I wake up is what time I can go back to bed that night. I feel like I’m going through the motions and counting down the days until the weekend once again. Awful right? I know.

I wasn’t going to blog today, like I mentioned everything is half finished so I didn’t see much point. I’d like to do a shopping inspired post but my hour lunch break isn’t long enough and commuting traffic has started to go back to being horrific so after dinner and house jobs, I just don’t have the energy to open the laptop I’ve already spent 8 hours on.  I’d also like to post outfit posts, but the holiday weight is staying put and in the words of Mean Girls ‘’Sweatpants are all that fit me right now’’. I love my job, but I honestly long for the days when I could blog so freely and be in charge of my own time. I also miss having suitable light to actually take bloody photos! I often see others mention how difficult it is to maintain an online presence and yes, some elements are but when you’re your own boss it makes it so much worth it. I miss blogging and I miss talking to you all.

I’m not really sure what this post is all about, but I couldn’t have my blog birthday go unnoticed (although it nearly did) so I just wanted to give a little mention that although I’m not updating as frequently as I’d like because life. I’m still here, I’m not going anywhere and I still check in daily. 7 whole years I’ve been on this part of the internet and as each year goes by I’m even more grateful you’re still here reading it. My time will come one day when I’ll become an even smaller fish in a bigger pond, heck it’s already happening, but for those who do take precious time (and it is so precious) out of your day to see what I’ve got to say, well, I’m forever thankful.

I won’t make promises I can’t keep, but I’m going to try and get back in to a routine with my blogging again. We’ve been through too much to let it go too long. As always, thank you, you have no idea how much each and every one of you means to me. 

Until next time... love you all...
