Long Time No See Again!

How fast is time passing these days!!! It’s crazy.

It was my birthday a couple of weeks ago and I had a great day. My sister bought me a hot air balloon ride but I’ve got to wait until April because of the weather. I’m so excited though!

2.5 weeks into my Christmas holidays and despite working pretty hard I’m nowhere near as organised as I’d hoped to be. I’ve decided to have just one aim for the remaining 1.5 weeks and that’s to write a 2000 word history essay. That must get done and anything else that gets completed, I’m going to class as a bonus.

Have not been dancing for a loooong time. Starting to get a bit worried/upset about it now because I really don’t want to lose it.

Hope you all had a great Christmas. I had a wonderful time. I only started feeling Christmassy on the 16th when I went carol singing in the freezing cold with 30 or 40 others but then it just kept coming. The Christmas services on the 23rd, 24th and 25th that I went to were all good, simple but I hope effective, and it was great to see so many new faces – especially on Christmas Eve when the church was packed with people from all ages and backgrounds. Family-wise we did well two. We went to one set of grandparents for afternoon tea on Christmas Eve and the other set came over for a superb lasagne lunch on Boxing Day. I liked all of my presents: the best was front-row tickets to see Strictly Come Dancing Live on Tour next year and the smallest was a ring.

I’ve been invited out tonight but I’m not sure that I actually want to go. I’m not sure what to do so will ask the family’s advice over dinner.
