I have no life. It seems another month has passed without me blogging. Just another part of my life which has suffered greatly from neglect of late. So much for my promises and resolutions to get back to regular posting.
So what has happened to rob me of my life and deny me those precious few hours each week when I know I should be doing something else, but instead blog? It seems LIFE. Let me explain. When I started this blog in November last year, things were pretty normal. I had finished study for the year, work wasn't too busy, everyone was in good health and I had some time on my hands. It seems since I began study again this year (end of February) everything has gone pear-shaped. My Mum's visit over Easter didn't help either, then cue bronchitis, way too much study, a sick cat and lots to do at work, and you get a stressed-out, cranky Aunty Shabby who has no time to blog and even if she did have time, would be too demotivated to say anything nice and would rather lie on the nice, new leather couch and eat chocolate.
And that's another thing. Started gym program as dismayed that weigh same amount as did almost five years ago before went on huge diet and lost heaps of weight, only to put it all back on. I have only been once, as no time to go, but then feel guilty because I haven't been, so lie on the couch and eat more chocolate.
Good thing it was our wedding anniversary last month, as I may have even forgotten I was married. Poor Mr S has also been the subject of my awful neglect, but as he is studying too it has been more of a mutual neglect situation. Oh - before I forget - I got those earrings I wanted. I almost can't believe it. Feel a little bit too spoilt. Very nice though. Will have to post a pic of me wearing them!
And so of course, this little rant brings me to my climax - no time also means no time to craft. I still haven't finished that baby blanket and I am pretty sure the baby has already been born!
My last assignment is due in a week and half, so if you can indulge me just a little longer, I will then be back in June, bigger (well, actually hopefully smaller) and better than ever!!
I remember having a life...vaguely.

HA! Yes, but you are quite inspiring and must have huge reserves of energy (or drugs), as you actually DO things! I just talk about doing them and then whinge when I don't!
