Holidays and my latest lame excuses for not posting.

Well I hope of any of you that bother reading had a very enjoyable Christmas time.

^ Now that is out of the way.....
I have been very damn busy with all of those last minute shoppers and crazed bargain hunters recently, not much of a surprise seeing as I work in retail.

Very happy to say that we managed to make it back to Wales to have a real Christmas with my family. We shall ignore the fact that my long-suffering boyfriend had to drive us back at 10pm Christmas night so he could go into work the following morning.

It was a rather lovely day, filled with cackling that other people have to do the washing up after the obligatory xmas lunch, presents, explaining to my smallest sister that I was not eating a regular duck, nice ducks don't make it to the dinner table and its only those nasty vicious ducks that go and bite people end up being eaten by me, some really awful photos, PUSH FOR ICE (a longstanding joke that makes fun of my older sister) and then off to a more civilised dinner with my Dad & that side of the family.

Most likely not making much sense right now, but as usual I have had a rather stressful day and I now feel like I am dying, so I cannot think straight to save my life.

The chipmunks have managed to re-align their sleeping habits, so that we are not rudely awakened at 2am.
This makes for a happy Zilla, as it did get a bit tedious having to sleep on the sofa!

Other than the usual festive crap, yesterday was Rob's 21st birthday & our 5 year anniversary.
We ended up down the local pub. How romantic.
Luckily, a very amazingly good friend of mine I used to work with back in the Cabot days mentioned meeting up for a meal and catching up, so Saturday night I get to have a proper meal and amazing company :)

I can't be bothered to type anymore, not that I have anything interesting left in my life to talk about anyway.

Happy happy happy!

It seems I have managed to find this weird inner happiness thing recently.
Not sure where that came from but anyway!

Blah blah blah I haven't updated in ages, the reason for that is I have been busy, with work, with the BEAUTIFUL chipmunks my amazing boyfriend bought me for Christmas (even if the little buggers do wake up in the middle of the night and keep us awake) and with generic Christmas shopping.


Look at me! I am a cuuuuute chipmunk NOM NOM NOM!


Work is going rather well now, I think it was just a case of needing to wait it out and riding with it. There were a few teething issues to start with but I think it has all settled down nicely now.
It also helps that the management in my store won the lovely new deluxe GHD sets last week as a company incentive & I only just found out (and received mine) today!



I mean? who wouldn't be gloriously happy with that?

The Christmas music hasn't driving me mad yet, but that may have been due to not having music for almost 2 weeks due to technical issues and almost going mad from the silence!

Aside from going home to see my family for ages, life seems to be going well.
Reconnecting with a very good friend that somehow managed to get away is also helping with the positivity :)
