It's been a while hasn't it? I didn't actually intend to be gone for any period of time, but slowly over the years I got a little preoccupied with living my life rather than writing about it. I'm hoping I've now found a bit of a balance to do both, even just starting this post I feel how cathartic blogging is for me, a feeling I've missed. A lot happened since I last personally blogged, the boys are now in Year 3 and 1, I couldn't be prouder of them and how they've handled everything - they're both excelling in school. I was in quite a tough and emotionally draining relationship which I thankfully left, I've spent a lot of time working on my self and enjoying time with my friends and family and I've also took on some additional social media work that isn't blogging. For the first time in, well, I don't actually know how long, I can say every part of my life seems to be thriving and I couldn't be happier. I guess that's the thing isn't it, that when you have a lot going on in life that's very personal, you don't actually want to write about it. But now I'm in such a better place - here I am.
As I write this, the boys are in Spain with my parents having the best time. I miss them like crazy and am so excited for them to get home. Hopefully their return home is a little less eventful than when I took them in July - as I contracted Covid from my ex which was horrendous. Being double jabbed I truly didn't expect to be as poorly as I was, I guess I'm just lucky really as I can't imagine how much worse I'd have been if I wasn't. Aside from Covid, we had a wonderful holiday, it was amazing to get away with my babes and have some vitamin SEA.
Since going back to school we're in a really good routine. The boys truly amaze me every single week with how amazing they've done, I couldn't stop smiling during their parents evenings, I was proud as punch. I feel blessed every single day that I get to raise these mini humans, they are beyond incredible. Since it's been really just me and them for almost three months now, I feel like our bond is even stronger than ever before. I'm still working in Pharmacy and thankfully my hours have started to calm a little after quite a hectic year, which is great as it means my work / life balance is a lot more manageable.
I'm going to keep this general catch up post short and sweet as I'm sure I'll delve into things more along the next few months, but it just feels good to be back here again!
