I couldn’t stay away, I miss blogging too much, despite my last two blog posts being a month apart each. I am thinking of getting another domain name though as too many people I know, even people from work, have read my blog. I miss the whole “blog atmosphere”. I still read my daily blogs every day and occasionally commented. I still searched from blog to blog for interesting posts. I came online every day, I even checked my stats every few days. It was too hard to ignore the big fat “closed” sign. So here it is, open again, whether that is a good thing or not. Maybe not for the visitors I have probably lost, but for myself to…vent and write. So in true “returning to to the blogosphere” style, heres a list of things that happened to me since I last blogged.
- My fiance has recovered from his injury and is back at work
- I have less than 30 days before my contract at work ends
- My family came down for Christmas and stayed for over 2 months
- I traded in my car bought a brand new, more economical car (from a 6 cylinder to a 4 cylinder)
- My younger sister started her first year of high school at a boarding school
- My kitten Thomas turned a full year old. He still looks like he is only 6 months old
- My baby nephew never stops smiling and he is growing so quick
- Speaking of babies, I’m having one myself, due in August. I can’t wait!
- I am in the process of turning the spare room into a baby room/office for myself and the baby
So thats my life so far. I am very excited about the baby, it is something I have wanted in so long. Tomorrow I will have a better (proper) blog post, for now this is just my mini-updates.

In my previous post I asked how I could get my blog more personal. Now I sit here struggling to not be too personal. Some of you may have seen my other post (which has now been deleted) where I probably went a bit emo on everyone talking about life and how depressing it can be and blah. I sat there and tried to write what I wanted to say (like now) but I am finding it hard to say it. So basically here it is nice and short.
On Saturday my fiance was involved in an incident which resulted in a blow to the back of his head. He ended up in hospital for almost a week with concussion and loss of short-term memory. He kept crying out to me every 5 minutes saying “Ow I feel like I have been hit in the head”, so then I’d tell him what had happened and then he would ask me again as soon as I finished as he couldn’t remember a thing.
This happened whilst we were in the middle of moving, so I had to call my co-worker to help me move the rest of the furniture ourselves with her van. I was so busy with work, deadlines, moving and running around doing everything. I was and am still so stressed out.
He is out of hospital now, under the Doctors instruction to rest and not work or drive for 3 months as he has swelling of the brain. Now more than ever I know I need to get my license. He is fine now physically though not at all mentally. He is the worst in the mornings when he wakes up in excrusiating pain. I feel totally useless.
So to cut the story short and not be too personal, I am quite emotional and putting a lot of things in life back into perspective. I am dealing with it slowly.

With all the hiatus’s I have had, all the times I have been away on holiday or moved apartments (did I mention I am moving on the weekend to a HOUSE!), or have a relative visiting, or am just damn busy with work, I haven’t had hardly any time to blog. When I do blog, I can never think of anything actually worth reading so I just churned out the same boring “Top Ten” posts. I have only just realised I haven’t written anything personal in while. Not that everyone loves personal stuff, but I feel like my blog isn’t about “me” anymore and just about random internet crap. The last time I wrote anything about me or my life was when I wrote about crappy buses.
It’s not that I didn’t have anything interesting to write (well, you be the judge) I had many things happen lately. From family drama, to Christmas stress, to getting a Wii (and getting addicted), to being chased in car by a lunatic and being forced to go double the speed limit, to the size Thomas (my hand-raised kitty) has grown. Any of those sound interesting?
So really I fail at blogging. Whilst I put a lot of time behind the scenes onto my site, and I am continually updating or re-doing pages, the blog is always the same boring crap. Wow I said crap four times in one blog.
So I thought, how can I make my blog more personal? I can write about previous experiences from years ago to a week ago, or I can write about something interesting that is coming up. I can write about new music I am into, what books I am reading. Come on, give me something.
So to finish of this (yet another) boring post, let me know what you want to hear from me. Do you like the meme style articles or do you want something about me. Or do you just not care and only read because you are bored?
