This is a very weird moment for me right now, to be sat here on a Friday night with some rubbish on the TV for some background noise to keep the place being so unquiet, with little man in bed and no toys going off or a loud children's DVD blaring in the background, moments like these recently have been very rare. I have been ill once again, this time with a chest infection, my second chest infection in 3 months actually, a chest infection is not the one when your Asthmatic, every coughing fit I have I panic in case it turn's into a Asthma attack, yes panic, panicking itself is not good when your Asthmatic, I have totally remained 'cool' to the best I can with only one night me debating on weather to get some medical help, turns out sticking my head out the window and breathing a specific way really does help! Enough about me being ill! Christmas, the word that every child dreams about, the word that many adults dream about, Christmas can be a very stressful time, which is something I discovered for the first time with Christmas just gone!
I started this post at 8:40pm, the time at writing this sentence is 23:18, I have not lost my passion to blog, to be honest I don't think I've found my passion to blog yet, don't get me wrong I love blogging, I am amazed and fascinated that people read my post, totally surprised me when I got my very first reader, it was most probably my lovely Mother who's Birthday is today actually! Ok that was more of a paragraph then a sentence wasn't it. I have so much to write about but before I get carried away I would like to wish you all a very Happy New Year! I hope that 2013 is a better year for each and every single one of you!
I also wish you all had a lovely Christmas, I did plan to get on here on Christmas eve, and before then, I didn't plan on my last post to be the 19th December at all, some of you may have seen a post I wrote, I had to remove the post for certain personal reasons, that post was the reason why I couldn't get online and write a lovely Christmas message to all my wonderful readers and visitors, that post was the reason why I discovered how stressful Christmas can be! If you missed the post, me and Spud have had some personal problems going on, and the person who is meant to be the 2nd most important person in Spud's life (obviously I am number 1 =D) let him down big time in a child's eyes.
So there was me, on Christmas eve rushing around trying to get my boy the presents he was let down on, Smyths Toys by the way I love you! I love them, you see Spud really really wanted a Mickey Mouse Fire Engine for Christmas, about 3 months ago a Smyths catalog arrived on our door mat and ever since he set eyes on the toy he wrote that down on his Santa list! It only cost £14.99 if I would of known Spud was going to get let down on his promised presents I would of ordered the toy in due time! The Friday before Christmas which I believe was the 21st I ordered the Mickey Mouse fire engine from Smyths, unfortunately for guaranteed Christmas delivery order's needed to be made by the previous Monday (which was the 17th) so I had no hope in my mind that we would receive the toy on time, possibly even before the new year! I could not believe it when the toy turned up on Christmas Eve! Smyths you made my child's Christmas morning!!
Christmas morning is always the same for me and Spud, we are the only ones here so we open our presents together and then have a cooked breakfast then later on in the afternoon we go to either my Mum's or Dad's each year we alternate to one or the others. My Mum has 4 children, 3 to my Dad and my little sister to her partner of 12+ years, my Dad has 6 children, 3 to his first wife and 3 with his second wife (my Mum) so understandbly Christmas is a very packed occasion at my Dad's, especially since he has 6 grandchildren too! So this year my second oldest brother and his partner William invited us to their lovely new home for Christmas day, when I say us, I mean all of us, my Dad and his partner, all of us kids and all the grand kids, a very big well done to my brother and Will because the dinner was amazing and so was the setting! Gays are perfectionist, it was like we was in a 5* restaurant!
The whole day was very special, with most of us going off to my Dad's about 6pm for some tea and games, my Dad brought his partner a puppy for her Birthday present (also on Christmas day) so everyone was fussing over the new edition who my Dad's partner called Bonnie, I myself am not a animal lover/person at all, but she is a lil cutie, for the first time in my adult life, I let a puppy/dog 'kiss' me! My family and myself were totally amazed at my achievement!
Spud had a brilliant time as he always does, thank you to the beautiful Attachment Mummy who blog's over at Attachment Mummy where I won the Vtech Innotab 2 Spud spent most of the Christmas holidays on his new tablet! He kept forgetting the name of the Innotab and said more than once it was his Ipad lol, he was very proud to show off his new device playing with the Mickey Mouse game I purchased him to go with it (I also purchased Disney cars, you can never go wrong with Disney!). Ohh by the way if your new to the blog you will soon discover Spud is OBSESSED with Mickey Mouse and loves anything Disney!
Well enough for now, I will be back tomorrow to tell you about the rest of our Christmas/New Years holiday!
Best wishes to you all!
