It really does. I really try not to be negative on this blog but there's nothing like being shoved, elbowed and sworn at to dampen your holiday spirit. Ok, moan over! I had a WONDERFUL Christmas. I got so many lovely p.resents and I spent time with everybody I love, even if some of it was by webcam. I can't wait to get round to playing with all my new toys, haha!
I've been so bad at posting on this blog! I've been writing in my paper diary instead. I'm going to run off now and make a cup of tea and watch some more of the Ally McBeal boxset The Boy bought me for Chrimbo.
Ally McBeal makes me feel so nostalgic. I remember cuddling up with my Dad and sister to watch them when they were on TV first time round. :D

No smoking, but lots of snow!
Hi blog! Sorry for all the neglect and whatnot... y'see I, erm, ah! I have no excuse but hey, I've got a bit of time now, lets catch up!
I've had to take the day off work today because of the snow. I don't know exactly how much snowfall we've had but when The Boy and I went walking this morning it was knee deep, and it's been falling thick and fast since then. Needless to say I couldn't get into work today, all public transport has been suspended until tomorrow. I'm getting pretty worried to be honest, I can't afford to have any more time off but at the moment it doesn't look like I'll be able to go anywhere tomorrow either. Money worries aside though, the snow is beautiful and we've had loads of fun playing in it. My poor doggie has to pee under the picnic table because it's the only place the snow isn't higher than her head! According to the forecast it's going to be snowing on and off for the rest of the week, but I hope it clears up soon.
In other news, I haven't had a smoke in five days and it has been haaaa-aaarrd to get this far. I'm coping better than I expected actually but I keep getting these intense cravings/urges for a cigarette and I need to just sit and shut everything out for a while until it passes. My cravings are worse at work, they're triggered by breaks and the end of my shift. When I'm at home I can just knit or read to occupy myself. It REALLY helps that The Boy is quitting with me this time, I was worried that quitting together would be less successful because we would both be weak but in fact it's been the opposite. We've had the strength to say no to each other. It's great, and I'm starting to feel more confident about my ability to achieve my other health goals once I've got quitting smoking under my belt!
