Today, you can call me Lucky.


In fact, it would be just as wise to have called me Lucky for the entirety of last three weeks. Family, food and festivity: who could ask for more?
Christmas Day was quiet and understated but I loved spending it at home. Skype is brilliant and we got to speak to the family we couldn’t see on the day. All the presents I bought went down a treat and I was incredibly lucky with what I received too (a leopard onesie, 3 different perfumes and series 1 of Homeland on DVD.) Like I said, you can call me lucky.

In case you needed a demonstration of just how much I  love my onesie.

On top of that, it was our first Christmas in a new house and I absolutely love my room. It's not quite finished yet but it's well on its way and I couldn't be happier. My dog has taken to sleeping under my bed more often than not and I think I'll miss the company when I head back to uni! But I know I have lots to do and lots to look forward to in the next few months.

The luck didn’t quite stretch to New Year and I came a cropper to what I’ve called festive flu. January will be seeing me fight both festive flu and festive fat because I have, as I suspected, overindulged terribly. But I figured since we all made it into 2013 (take that, Mayans) a few extra sweets wouldn’t hurt, right? Although karma is already fighting back. I woke up this morning and what was the first thing I saw in 2013? A spider. Not the nicest thing when you suffer massively from arachnophobia but I figured that it must mean that part of my annual spider quota over (please?!)
Not having internet and spending the last three days in bed has meant I haven’t been able to blog as much as I would  have liked to over this festive period but I have had the chance to spend a lot of time with family and friends nonetheless.
And to finish, a somewhat rare demonstration of emotion. I would like to take this opportunity to wish everyone a happy and healthy 2013 :)
