May

Feel the need to blog, 

Since the last blog 13, I've gotten myself a car,... which is great as the search for cars was getting tedious. 
I've only gone and ended up with a convertible haha, oh dear this could be a bad idea. 
Never had a car that wasn't black



Have had an awesome couple of months hanging out with an old friend who has been like a breath of fresh air into life and let me enjoy the finer things in life and just let me chill out. 




Work... I hopefully will know in 2 days if my job will continue past August or not. Fingers Crossed ey,... cant be looking for a job in a month or two as that sounds all kinds of depressing :( 





Taken Imogen to London for her first time which was amazing. She loved travelling on the train down, she had totally no fear of being at the top of the Shard and she certainly enjoyed the whole experience. She's an incredibly lucky two year old. 











So I'm currently counting down the days till my holiday at the end of August and I genuinely cannot wait! It will be awesome :) 














Also had such a great couple of outings with my girlies, Paige, Katie & Gabby. They are a hell of a group of friends to have and I cannot wait for the next couple of hopefully sunny months to enjoy the wether and maybe throw in a few road trips!



And to finish off this blog its 24 Days until Rosie is due with my little niece :) I so cannot wait for her to arrive safely such exciting stuff. Rosie had a baby shower at the begining of this month which I got to go over to Aber to enjoy it with her!







HAPPY HAPPY HAPPY!!

13

So it is quite simple the question in which I am asking;
could 13 be my lucky number?



Everyone has their suspicions into what 2013 has to hold for them - 

So far I could answer that on each month;

January - Lucky
February - Unlucky 
March - Unlucky
April - Lucky

This year so far I've had a holiday to Gran Canaria with my little girl, I've had trouble and upset from a odious person, my working hours have increased, I've had a crash in my car leaving myself car less at present & I've gotten to see Emeli Sande - so although I would say the negative have been a huge impact on my life the positive are outweighing the negative 75/25


On the agenda next I will hopefully complete the following;

Pink in Concert - April

Sky Dive & becoming an Aunty - June

Race for life -  July

V Festival & Holiday Abroad with Tiny Tot - August

My 21st & Imogen's 3rd Birthdays and an A-Level at College - September



So yes... things look like they could carry on being completely on the positive scale of life

Life should be a privilege not a right

Hello 2013 - you're moving fast!





Wow the 18th of March already, this year is getting on a bit I don't think I've had time to sit down until now and actually think about it! 

It's been a fair amount of time now since I last blogged; a hell of a lot happened last year big changes but I know and especially when I look back now I realise these changes were all for the right reasons and for that I am extremely happy.

So lets sum the months so far; 

 

January -

I spent the first 14 days in Maspalomas, Gran Canaria what can I say other than AMAZING!!!! I needed this holiday and I can honestly say I thoroughly enjoyed it. Home is where I didn't want to return. I don't believe I've ever had the 'holiday blues' until now... Also it was a special holiday due to it being Imogens first holiday abroad :D 

So I got straight back to work about 7 hours after I arrived home - not impressed, I didn't plan that particularly well. 
Then for the rest of the month I was pretty much working and getting back into the great English weather - yes we arrived home to snow - it was expected though so cant blame planning this time. 


Oh and I bought my Ice Skates FINALLY,  £115 and I am overly happy with them in fact I love them but then I got too eager, I tried wearing them in at home like the woman told me which I successfully did for a few days then I decided to go to the Gym for three hours, do a half hour spin class then drive to Birmingham and skate for three hours followed by my weekly shop around Tesco - its safe to say I Fucked up my foot - so its taken a while to heal but back on the Ice this month - maybe more sensible this time though :) 

February -

I went on a date with a guy I had been 'dating' before my holiday, it was our 9th date and we had a coffee catch up followed by the cinemas ( FLIGHT - Denzel Washington - Great film, just throwing it out there!) 
- but this guy after this date stopped contacting me ... maybe he wasnt a fan of the film :') well thats the excuse I shall use. 

I started talking to a new guy after my friends persuaded me to 'GET OUT THERE' which was following off their conversation they had with me before I went abroad, I had nothing to loose so why not.

Spent most of February catching up with my friends LOTS, and seeing this new guy as we both had time off work so it meant we could meet up quite a bit especially since he only lives minutes away which was a first.

However Feb also had its downsides, things have got significantly bad with the Ex David that I had to seek advice and get a solicitor to sort out contact with him regarding Imogen. The stress has started to build, but after reading the few blogs from last year I do not under any circumstance need that again.

 

March -

 

Katie, Paige & Gabby <3
Well I thoroughly enjoyed my first night out of the year with my girlie's on the 2nd March and caught up with a few old friends that night - it was fun - Gabby was hilariously drunk so we shipped her off home safely. Paigey stopped at mine and we had a girly hangover day the next day. Although Gabby doesnt understand the Avengers and believes its a new version on the power rangers - but ill let that slide.

Then the following day I have the Police turn up at my door on behalf of the social services team to come and investigate allegations. They told me very little but wanted to check my fridge for food, check my daughter had a bed they did  this and their words exactly - "someone is shit stirring here" I told them of recent issues regarding my ex partner and they said all their checks were fine then next thing I know they are back and want to check my daughter over - check her body - strip down my two year old to check she didn't have marks over her - the fact someone had the audacity to even ring the police was sickening!
 
The next day after stress and sickness has kicked in I spend the day at home with Imogen and have that time off work, when a Police officer who works in the department of social services turns up at my door - she comes in, tells me the allegations and then checks Imogen again as the police the night before hadn't noted down that they had done this -.- Appalled is a bit of an understatement.   However obviously again - they have no concerns. She asked me a few questions and she tells me what has been said, all false information & allegations
So those days were a bit upsetting to say the least, but no matter how hard someone who wont be named tries to get at me, the harder I will fight - if you think you can try different tactics to get at me then your wasting your time - I am a hell of a lot stronger than I feel I have ever been. 


Now to settle things off for March, I had an amazing mothers day weekend with my lovely family and also went Go Karting with nans neighbours kiddies and my brother it was awesome. This this weekend I went out again with my girlie's and I loved every minute of it even more. It was a very interesting evening, i'd like to think I was incredibly drunk but we shall just remain with the words tipsy. Caught up with some old close friends and enjoyed seeing them out and able to hang out with them. Hopefully keep in touch with them more now :)  I had such a great weekend and I thank my girls so much for being here for me they are the best and I have become so close to three girls, - Katie, Gabby & Paige they are my rocks and I wouldn't be where I am now if it wasn't for them the last few months.

Plans for next few weeks - Emeli Sande at the O2, Pink, New Tattoos, Catching up more with old friends <3 

So I thought about my blog today as I sat here eating healthy (oh yes, I'm trying to get back 'on it') as I have got to a point in the last two weeks where I've decided the guy I have been seeing isn't what I want right now, I know it sounds mad after pretty much a month but it isn't, he isn't and its not really him personally I think its more where I'm at as a person. So yes, I am currently sitting here pondering how I am going to let him know I guess.... BUHHHHH I hate things like this but hey ho I'm not going to settle for being with someone who doesnt make me happy when I don't actually have to - This is a lesson I think I have finally learnt... :)
