Apologies and gratefulness

I know it's been a while since my last blog post but life is crazy busy (I know... I know... when is it not?).

I am now 4 weeks away from the end of my Masters course. It has been such a fantastic year in so many ways: no exams for the first time in many years, made some fantastic friends, sorted out my life for the next 3 years... But it has also been an incredibly difficult year. Life has been very stressful recently and I have all of a sudden had a lot to worry about, not least the fact that I have ZERO money at the moment! (Minus actually, but whose counting!). It will all change next year, but I am just finding it very difficult to 'live for the day' at the moment! On top of all that, there is just a lot of stuff going on which I have to deal with by myself and it just gets a bit much sometimes!!

And what has been getting me through it? Well, actually, it is all of you... My new found blog and twitter friends! I have been reading a lot of amazing stories at the moment on lots of people's blogs (The health scare that Sarah had recently and how strong she was at dealing with it, and Ashlee's encounter with the blind man) as well as other blogs that just never fail to make me smile (Ashley and Laura to name a few favourites). My amazing new twitter friends (both old friends I had lost touch with and brand new ones!) have also had a very large part to play in keeping me afloat!

I just wanted to say thank you for always being there, even though you may not have realised you were!!

Until next time...
