M. I. A.

I feel I owe you all a bit of an explanation/apology for being M.I.A for a while…

I was getting really excited about bringing you some festive blog posts and I had loads of ideas so I went on Twitter as there was a Christmas themed blogger chat – it wasn’t as cheery as I thought it would be! People were commenting saying they didn’t enjoy all the gift guides, the party wear posts, the Christmas DIYs, etc because they felt that every blogger was doing the same thing. Personally, I love these kinds of posts and were some of the posts I was planning on putting out but I don’t want to post content that will be boring/same-y for my readers so I scrapped these from my schedule.

With Christmas approaching, work has been very stressful (yes, even more than normal), after work I’ve just been wanting to go to the gym and then get home and chill. I didn’t feel like it mattered whether I posted or not.

Finally, I have been struggling to keep a hold on everything at home. Week starting November 24th we had to move out and Thor went to his holiday home whilst our bathroom was being torn out and replaced. On Thursday 27th November my Granddad passed away. We had booked to go to London on Saturday 29th November and I was planning on taking lots of photos for an “Out & About” post, although we decided that we were still going to go, I didn’t really feel much like documenting our day.

Granddad’s funeral isn’t until the 19th December and I’m trying (really hard) to find my Christmas cheer again..

I’m sorry, I may not see you again until January so I want to take this opportunity to wish you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year, I hope 2015 deals you a good hand.

And please, if you have any suggestions about what you’d like to see, I’d love to know!
