Catch up!

I haven't written in a long while! I have been very busy. I went to France with my Boy, his Dad, Grandma, Auntie and two sisters, who had never really spent any time with their Dad before (he abandonded them when they were little) so it was a very interesting experience.

My man got a little bit overwhelmed by it all, (including his Dad continuing to be a completing arrse and treating him like a doormat as usual) and got really upset one day. It breaks my heart to see him upset. Anyway, he is leaving things with his Dad for a while now and seeing if he really cares. The place we stayed was lovely. A chateau with a river going under it, and we just entertained ourself in an old fashioned way, making boats out of paper and bottles and racing them down the river, playing bowls and playing cards. We got back on the Sunday after another 12 hour drive back to my Family. My man stayed at mine and we left for University and to go back to our flat on the Monday.

So we have been back five days, and everything has gone quite according to plan. I have been at university every day since Tuesday and have done about 5 hours of revision each day, but some were a little more distracted than others. Have been eating really healthy dinners, mainly chicken breast (roasted) and vegetables, and not too much food. I don't feel like I am loosing any weight though, but I suppose it is early days and I never weighed myself to begin with!

The weather has been interesting! Its snowed on Wednesday and has been around since because as I am sure you all know the whole of the UK is freezing at the moment! I have walked to/back from uni a couple of times, as part of a bid to increase my activity levels.

This evening we are supposed to be having a poker night. My mans friends are coming round and we brought in beers (I have my Crabbies alcoholic Ginger Beer, which if you like normal ginger beer I urge you to try! Its delicious!!) and tortilla chips and dips and nuts. Which is no doubt going to sabotage my healthy eating for the evening but such things don't put me off anymore. Having one bad evening a week is a lot better than 7 a week, which is what mine used to be with the way I was eating.

Anyway, I have decided to put 120 million percent into my exams now because I won't really have anymore exams in the future. I think next semester I will have one, maybe two, but when there aren't that many its different. So i plan to up the anti a little bit with regards to the time I get to and leave the library.

Just wanted to add, that me and my munchkin have been getting on amazingly over the past few weeks and I am literally loving every min of being with him. I thought such feelings would fade a little bit after being together for 2 and a half years, and maybe a little bit with moving in together and seeing eachother alllll the time but then it wouldn't be true love would it :)
