When I'm away I miss my baby, I'm gone with half my heart, God knows I must be crazy, For living far apart, But tonight it's gonna be different

Boxing Day is crazier than Christmas day itself minus the extra family.

Seeing as I got woken up at a ridiculously early time this morning by my personal alarm clock (Scott) texting me, I decided I might as well get up at about 8am. I haven’t really slept in all this holiday. This meant I spent quite a considerable amount of time this morning talking to him through msn as well as downloading new music and watching various videos.

This time tomorrow though I’ll be with him.

I had what felt like a million and one things to do today. Once everyone else was finally up, I was sent down to the shop in our village. This was quite a challenge baring in mind all the paths are covered by a thick layer of ice, once I got there the shop didn’t even have what I was asked to go and get, so a waste of half an hour. When I got back it was into sorting out lunch, another roast dinner which was an attempt t use up the last of the turkey, which failed.

This left me to my main challenge of the day, pack for Scott’s. I didn’t think it would be that hard, but seeing as my clothes weren’t were they should be, some of them not being dry and me generally just being a girl about it and not being able to make decisions it went really well.... oh yeah and my moisturiser exploded on me as well, it was a good job it didn’t do that when I closed the case (I have a mini case it’s really cool, the only problem is it isn’t green). But I managed to just throw a load of stuff in the case in the end; clothes are clothes at the end of the day. I nearly forgot to put Scott’s Christmas present in it but I remembered once I was telling my mum I’d finished sorting it all out.

I finished the day with one of my new DVDs, Sex and the City 2. The first one was really good and this one was even better. DVD and chocolate a good way to end the last couple of days and to prepare for the long car journey tomorrow.

I need to be up at 8am in order to be ready for 10am to leave for about 5 hours in the car. I have the outnumbered series 3 plus the Christmas special to watch on the way, I decided the revision wouldn’t be a good way to pass the time plus outnumbered was more appealing, I love that show. Although it’s going to be drive for 10 minutes stop at Tesco’s coz my Dad needs to get some diesel and my mum wants to get stuff for the journey, plus we’ll have to stop half way through the journey coz my dad will need a break at some point.

I’m really looking forward to this next week with Scott though, two months without him, now a week with him. It’s going to be good. Although this means no blog posts for a week...

Christmas day

Okay, so we’ve all established I worry too much, but old habits die hard.

Today has been a really long day; I was woken up at 3.15am. I wasn’t amused by this, basically my parents still do the whole stocking thing and I was more than happy to wait to open the presents inside it at a reasonable time, but no I wasn’t left to do that. Due to sharing a room with my sister I had to wake up as she wanted to open her presents and decided to switch the main light on in our room, she wasn’t content with just the desk lamp was she?

It was then decided we would get out of bed at 7.30am. My family don’t understand the meaning of sleeping clearly. Once those few hours passed and I was thrown out of my bed for good, we were able to open our presents under the tree. I’ve been really lucky. My sister spent a fortune on me this year, a charm bracelet and several charms, DVDs, books and a stitch teddy. My brother got me a mug which is shaped like biscuits, anyone that knows me knows I love biscuits so this is a pretty loved present even though it was one of those quirky presents you don’t expect. My mum and dad replaced my much loved Samsung mp3 player with a new one, a sandisk sansa clip mp3 player, 8gb with a memory card which was also 8gb plus the new sex and the city 2 DVD which I’ve wanted since it’s been released. Plus various other relatives got me the usual presents of bath stuff and perfume. I’m also £75 richer!

With a few hours to waste I helped set up the table and sort the house out. I also had to get ready myself which took longer than expected due to the fact my hair wouldn’t go right.

Then it was for the part of the day I wasn’t looking forward to due to my uncle and me not getting on. Although for some reason everything went okay, I worry unnecessarily. We had a really good lunch with my Nan, and Granddad as well as my Uncle. However most of the conversation was about me and Scott, which at times wasn’t really very good to be a part of due to what was being said. We played some family games and then they left.

It was a pretty good family day.

Scott did a swimming thing today in the sea to raise money for his expedition to Nepal next year and he came 7^th out of 50. I’m really happy for him especially as he seemed pretty nervous before hand, but he did really well. I don’t think I’ll be doing it anytime soon though! I’ve only got tomorrow at home then I’m off to see Scott. I might not be looking forward to the long drive but I’m definitely looking forward to seeing him, it’s been two months since we’ve seen each other, I just can’t wait to be with him again.

Well only another 365 days to go till the next one.... but this has definitely been a pretty good day, and there isn’t a better way to finish it off than speaking with Scott.

I love you baby, can’t wait for Monday xxxxx

Christmas Eve

Well this is Christmas isn’t it, family arguments and the buzz is gone. I guess that’s what growing up does to you.

I didn’t get much sleep so I’ve been overly tired today. This has probably been the main contributor to the fact that the littlest thing has managed to annoy me or wind me up in some way.

I’ve had to help with the preparations for tomorrow, which isn’t the best way to pass the time but it did mean I wasted an hour.

Once my dad got in from work we had to go to Tescos, yes Tescos on Christmas Eve. I know what you’re thinking. Although surprisingly it wasn’t that busy, the obvious aisles were the alcohol, chocolate etc but to what I thought it would be it wasn’t that bad. I don’t get why my parents couldn’t have got this stuff on their many trips to the shops before but obviously it was necessary that we got them...

Due to the fact my mum didn’t like any of the cards for grandparents, it was left to me to make one, so at 17 years old I was sat with a whole collection of card, glue felt tips to make a masterpiece. For some reason I felt like a I was four years old again. It was pretty fun.

I wish I could see Scott today; it’s been that kind of day where I just want a hug from him. Although I have had a really good conversation with him on the phone and I am really looking forward to seeing him, I can always and I mean always rely on him to cheer me up. Plus he’s made me so that I’m looking forward to tomorrow in a strange way.
