Sad today. I've always thought of New Year's as a pretty big thing, a good indication of what the rest of that year will be like. Ok fine that might be a bit silly or whatever, and yeah okay realistically not necessarily true. But I don't know, for me there's something really quite special about New Year's, maybe its the fresh start, clean slate thing. Anyway, this past year has been a bit sort of mixed up, the last few months have been a bit shit and I've been looking forward to the New Year as a new start, a way of putting all the horribleness of the last few months behind my and move forward, with the good of this year. Well, I'm not too sure if that's going to be the case. Looks as though 2011 won't be quite what I hoped it to be. Maybe it's just a case of learning to deal with things a bit better, rather than getting in a tizzy over things.
Mleh. Sucky year.

So, I finished the necklace I was making for my secret santa (yay!) It's super cute, I won't post any pictures until after christmas just incase she happens to see it. Also, My dental appointment the other day was asolutely awful, being at the dentist makes me want to tear my hair out. It was horrible, I cried, had to leave the room, refused to go in initially, panic attacks. The whole lot. And my ipod did NOT help. Urgh. Why do I have to be so scared of the dentist! Anyway, back there on the 5th for my root canal which means I'll be in the chair for an hour or an hour and half. I have absolutely no idea how I'm going to handle that. Sigh.

Sometimes you have to let go of your anger so that you can move forward. The last couple of months have been a little mlergh, and I think today I've realised that continuing to be annoyed or hurt by someones actions gets you nowhere, it just makes you feel like crap! I don't know, maybe at this time of the year, when we start getting closer to christmas, I think you realise the importance of having people around you that love you, even if you don't realise that they do.
I think I'm starting to understand that it's better to just keep an open mind and an open heart, instead of closing yourself away.

Yeah. Feel good today, even though I have to go to the dentist tomorrow. D:

Snow fixes everything.

Okay, a bold statement I know. Now, there are a lot of you "snowists" as I like to say, about at this time of year. Complaining about train delays, the bruises from slipping in the snow, the motorway pile up which meant you were sitting in your car that's decided to refuse to heat up for 5 hours. But who can honestly say that they haven't looked out the window and thought; wow, that really is gorgeous. All the snow covered rooftops and trees, the whole neighbourhood covered with this absolutely perfect blanket of white loveliness. Seriously!?  For those few seconds, you  forget all the worries and thoughts about how you're going to get to work tomorrow, or how the snow has ruined your friday night plans. For that split second, you are 100% worry free.

I admit, I'm a snowlover through and through, so perhaps my opinion is clouded by my inner child screaming "SNOWW YAYYY!". Nonetheless, complaining about the snow isn;t going to make it any easier to deal with, nor will it make go away. I say we embrace our newfound British-Arctic relationship and make the most of it. Give the inner child a chance to play
