the best surprise ever.....

Hellooooo

so i have not been on here for a week again, sorry.  been sooo busy!  Thursday was weight watchers and i lost another 1/2 lb :-) only 1 and 1/2 lbs to go to get to my first target.
Friday was mums birthday so i drove home after work and had birthday dinner. It was nice as all of us were at home :-). Drove back the same night and was sooo tired when i got home.
Had work on saturday and it was rather busy but was looking forward to the evening as it was Hazel's Halloween party at hers.  She came over to Northampton and upgraded her phone and i went to Tesco's with her on my lunch to get some food for the party.
After work i headed over to Melton after nipping home and feeding the piggies. The party was good, had some drinks and good food whilst watching the x factor and then played on the wii.
i was working the next day so didn't stay up thattt late. AND we gained an extra hour which was ace :-)
got up on the Sunday and drove back up to Northampton. did some tidying and cleaning and then got ready fo work. just did 4 hours and then back home to start organizing for anna's surprise birthday party that night at mine. Evelyn came over and she did a great job of decorating the house with petals, streamers and balloons. I set up the table and iced the cake :-). we had lots of yummy food and goodies ready and then waited for anns. We forgot about the clocks going back and had already cooked all in the oven before realising we were an hour a head of ourselves lol!!  Anna had no idea so when she arrived with her boyfriend and friend and they took off her blind fold she was so stum struck.  she even cried blessed her. was a wicked night, we talked and ate all the food and played on the wii. Anna accidentally split malibu and milk on the sofa when her bf sat down next to her lol!
after everyone had gone home i spent time sorting the house and taking decorations down before going to bed.

Monday and it was halloween.......work was ok, was just looking forward to the ghost walk in the evening. Picked steph up and headed to town. met the TLC ladies in the Old Black Lion and soon head off on the first walk. was good, took a hour or so to go round. Had sine fish and chips to share with Steph. When we git back, were literally went straight back out again with another group and hayley joined us on this one.  we were going to go down to the pub cellars where they were doing a weegi board and spooks down there. we didn't go though in the end as both Steph and I were tired and still got stupid colds.

Tuesday was the 20th annivrsary of InfoMedia so we had a little party and Tina and Graham bought in a buffet style lunch and some alcohol and drinks. was good, nice ling lunch with good food. Mum came over in the evening and was nice to chill with her.

Wednesday work was busy as ever and got ratty!!  Was looking forward to the evening :-) I went to MK theatre with Steph to see Slava'ssnow show.  it was amazing!! To start with both of us thought err what is this? it was random scenes for half and hour or so, some mesmorising and some just damn right funny. Either way it was captivating and kept u fixated. The end was the best bit where a massive snow storm blew over us all and was just insane. then the clowns let all these giant inflatted balls into the audience and they just got bounced aorund. It was probably one of the best things i have ever seen, totally different to anything i have ever seen before! When i got back i nipped into stephs for a cuppa. Mum text me just as i was keaving asking  me where i was...... thought she had, had a bad feeling or something!!! it was only when i had been home for 5 or 10 mins that there was a knock at the front door. It freaked me out a bit but i opened it to find eddy standing there! YES EDDY, I COULDN'T BELIEVE IT!! I hugged him straight away and was shaking, i was in such dis beliefs!
This morning i woke up and had to pinch myself, thinking it was all a dream. It was so nice to wake up with him and have snuggles :-).  NATO pulled out of Libya so the jobs were ended and all sent home. He is not sure where he will go now, we will find out in the next fews days or week.

went straight to weight watchers tonight as i was helping out with Angela. We ran the shop :-) Did pretty well. I didn't loose any weight this week but i didn't gain any so it was ok. I will do better this week.  Spent the rest of the evening tonight with eddy :-).  i am off to Manchester this weekend to spend the weekend with Steph. Looking forward to it. Shame Eddy wont be with me but at least he is back and safe and sound and i have been looking forward to this weekend for sooo long. Love my steph :-)

right it is time for bed

monday again.... a week is now done and dusted

It is a week today since eddy left. I am feeling ok, little sad butttt i had a packed week and great weekend so it has flown past.
got through my rubbish day at work on Friday and was excited for Bingo. Emma came on Friday instead of sat in the end and that was a nice surprise. :-)  off to bingo we went.  There was myself, Amy, Emma, Jim, Vicky and Jo in the end so good few of us. None of us won at the Bingo but Jo did win a £5 voucher and i won an AMAZING FREE YEARS BINGO!!  i couldn't believe it lol. so happy i was. Emailed eddy straight away and publicised it on Facebook as I couldn't contain my excitement. really enjoyed that and then Emma and Amy an I went to Tesco to get some coke and bits for the party on sat. we ended up spending over an hour in there lol and bought a few bits of clothes. Emma tried in a little woolly hate like a panda, was funny.


worked Sat boooo but only until 1pm (ended up there until 1.30 in end as Jenny came in to do her upgrade). i didn't mind. When she came in i was with another customer and all i wanted to do was go and hug her.  Saturday was bit mental as we had the new iPhones launched Friday and had many people in after one. Jim was the door man and stood outside operating a 1 in 1 out system all day! lol


after work Jenny and i went to New look and i bought a killer pair of shoes for the night out! :-)
did a few other bits and then headed home.  we ended up watching Red Riding Hood and thejn started the party


we made our own pizzas, pims and cocktail. night was good, selina came over, Aaron also and Anna even popped in.  we had champagne and nibbles and lots of drink before heading into town.
Selina took me and me sister in her mans Audi TT. Amy and Hazel were loving it lol!


town was good (don't remember an great deal past baroque). we started in baroque and then went goose, revs and o'neils. I did the usual drunken laura cry my heart out when we were in revs! lol Nothing new there.

we were going to go to the casiono but after realising most of us were poor, my feet where dieing a death and hazel could hardly stand up, we decided to skip that and go MAcDonals. ahhh if you could see us all sat on bench outsude drunk and stuffing our faces!


all got taxi's home and think we all pretty much passed out. Woke up sunday feeling like death. cleaned my teeth straight away and went top get a drink. realised hoe messy the house was and ended up doing some tidying and chatting to Aaron before he went back home.
we all moshed around til like 1pm or later, seating food and pizza and watching saturday nights Xfacotr, while all nursing our hang overs.
Jim managed to take Hazels phone home on sat night the moron that he is! lol soo at 4pm i left all at home with Angela as wll who popped over and went to get Jim so i could get the phone back. come 5pm it was just me and angela and we had a chat and had piggies out and chatted some more while i cleaned out thier cage.
did some washing and tidying and then headed off to Gemmas to sort out her new iPhone for her. thennnnn went over to Evelyn's for a few hours and then back home. Tried so hard not to fall asleep in the car driving home lol!! always love seeing evelyn and Tommy (new name Mr T). Gave crumble a bit of fuss too, bless him.   i feel very privaledged as Dean and Evelyn have asked me to be Tommy's God Mother. :-)


I discovered an addictive game on the wii last night - Frisbee. you throw the Frisbee for the doggie and he has to catch it lol. sounds stupid but its good. At about 11, i decided i should prob go sleep considering how tired i was! lol.
emailed eddy back after he emailed me asking for piccies of my birthday. Need to get some sent over to him 2night after gym.  Feel shattered so the gym will be interesting! I turned down a  cupcake tasting event with Steph to still go to the gym! hmmmm  Need the exercise after the last few weeks.  I am hoping for a good result still though at weight watchers on Thursday. Missed last week with my birthday celebrations! got a few days to be good now before weigh in on Thursday1  lol



Hoping Eddy will be able to ring me soon. Just to hear his voice :-) it is going to get harder over the next few weeks but i hope that as the months go by i will be ok.
And hey i have so much to do in evenings now i cant get lonely and bored at home. I will still miss having kisses and cuddles and that intimacy. I would give anything juist to be able to have this with my Eddy :-). 
Its weird be cause i knew i loved him and i always have just i think i didn't realise just how much... we got into a standard routine, living together and seeing each other at weekends. Now he has gone i think i probably took him for granted at times and i should remember just how lucky i am! I miss him soo much.


Should get back to work now lunch break is over.

what a day!!!!!

I hate busy stressful days! Trying to please everyone is NOT easy. I hate having to say the same thing over and over and i hate it when people DON'T LISTEN.... i swear people just think oh its laura talking what ever!!
been abused, taken the piss out of, moaned at, snapped at..... any more today????? cant wait to get home!!   we would be gone at 4 today (boss was being nice) but we have to get these Liverpool and Chelsea apps out today soooo still here and haven't sent them to the clients yet and ohh Chelsea have been chasing today!
Its soo nice to be able to just have a rant (basically to myself) on here and not care......!
the next 3 months at work at going to be MENTAL, i am NOT looking forward to it, butttt i will be kept busy so i won't have much time to feel sorry for myself!  Prob just feel more down though... i will be missing eddy, feeling down and sad, busy at work, stressed from work and it will be winter and cold and dark....DEPRESSING.
i am currently listening to James Morrison again, try and chill me out a little.
Did go to the pub at lunch and Amy came too so at least that was nice to get out and chill :-)
i have had to hold back on the tears today, feeling emotional..
Jim bless him went to o2 and picked up my spirit vouchers and went to argos and picked up Just Dance for me for the wii. :-)  will be testing that out tomorrow te he he
well nearly home time, off to chase my apps! see if i get my head bitten off again!!!
Bring on Bingo and some vino later!!

feel a little low today :-(

I had such a lovely day yesterday i was just sad that mum nor eddy could make it. I was sad that i didn't get a call from Eddy but i know he would of if he could,. I got an email but he didn't wish me a Happy Birthday. It appears his job is long hours, complex and very secure from what he was saying.  Glad he did at least manage to e mail me.
Had a lot of lovely messages on facebook and texts yesterday so i felt loved and had a lovely day.  I don't know why but i just feel a little low today. can't seem to really get stuck into work and concentrate today! (hence writing my blog now lol). 

ahh i fogot to say on my blog about yesterdays events that i laughed my head off when i saw people camping outside the appls store at 4.15pm for iPhone launch today. LOSERS!! That went straight onto Facebook lol

ahh have bingo tonight and im hoping that will cheer me up a little.
I just feel down and rather tired now. Tomorrow should be a good day too and i have Jenny coming up which i am excited about. Fingers crossed i win at Bingo tonight :-)  We will see what happens :-)

well bye until later.  Just one thing i want to say to remind me to smile is:

love
laugh
live

:-)

its the day after my birthday - diary of events from yesterday

soo i had a lovely birthday yesterday.  The day started with a phone call from mum and the gran. Both asking me to wave to London for them. :-)  Then off to London it was with Hayley Amy and myself getting the train there the first thing we did was head to Chelsea. :-) We went to the Tiffany store first... woww love Tiffany's. some of the jewellery is gorgeous and they had some amazing rings! lol after "window shopping" we went a bit further down kings road and went to the Kath Kidston shop. Heaven, i love Kath Kidston. Hayley wanted to let me choose my present and i decided to get a nice new purse. (smaller than my current one i had lol). We then headed towards Hayley's work and walked past the Sattchi Gallery so decided to go in as it was free and non of us had ever been. It was awesome and there was some ummm bizarre sculptures in there including some sort of deranged orgy style piece! lol  was funny to look at.
From here we took a walk round some of the streets and made our way to a lovely little pub near Hayley's work where she goes some days. .lovely pub, just a little expensive... but we sat and share a club sandwich and hips with some bevies and Tony a guy she works with joined us for a bit.
We decided to take a look at Harrods so we got the tube to knights-bridge and on the way to Harrods got roped into H&M where we ended up for a while and in the end didn't go to Harrods as i really wanted to et round to Covent Garden. I did get some nice new bits from H&M though just thanks to the yellow plastic ekk.  it was my birthday i am allowed to treat myself a little lol!
we headed to Covent Garden and went into the little shop in the indoor arcade that i love and I bought a tiny little crocheted rainbow. cute as and a reminder of my 25th birthday  day out in a place I have grown to love.
we went into the indoor market vand bought fruit smoothies and had a look around, then went to the american shop and hayley bought some shoes from dune in the sale. After all this is was time to head back to Euston.
The tubes were now starting to get buys and we ended up all piled on the train lol.  chit chatted home and Ben (thompson) got on the train at MK and was like hiya. he came and sat with us and caught up. 
Steph bless her picked us up from the train station to go round to Bella Italia. At this point my battery had died and god love her she let me steak her battery so people could get hold of me lol!
Jim was the first one there and holding my present!  wasnt obvious! lol he got me a blow up dinosaur and did an awesome job of wrapping him already blown up lol, he sat with us all dinner te he he .
Joing me for dinner was: Jim, Steph, Evelyn, Gemma, Sam, Ashli, Hayley and Amy. Mum couldn't come in the ended as she has not been very well. But still it was nice meal and we got a free bottle of sparkly with a voucher i got sent :-). i got all embarrassed when they sang happy birthday and when the puddings came out the candles were in and the whole restaurant was aware then! lol
after meal, said thanks and bye to all and Jim, Amy and Hi headed home to set up the Wii and wait for Hazel and Jimmy to arrive.
When they arrived we played a little on the Wii and then had a few drinks, did cakes and rest of pressies.
all in all it was a good day. Eddy emailed later that night so that made me smile.  wish he was with me but an email was ok.

My Beautiful Family

my last night out in Northampton before eddy went away (08/10/2011)

its my birthday birthday tomorrow

so its now the end of the third day without my eddy.  Monday morning he left t 6am ans all i did all day was cry! lol. Got through the day and went to the gym but then drove home to  mums house and spent time with mum, dad and Amy.  was nice as i didn't want to be on my own. it is strange as it isn't really like any other Monday morning where he goes back off early to go back to work. but somehow i just knew deep down that he was gone and he wouldn't be back at the weekend or the weekend after or even the one after that. I felt like i had lost a leg, i cant describe the feeling i had! Just made me feel sick to the stomach. Sat with Amy listening to James Morrison's Won't let you go.... i just reminds me of Eddy and what we have and what i feel for him and all i wanted to do was cry! lol..... finally went to sleep.
Mum came in early morning Tuesday to get me up! boooo all i wanted to do is hie back under the duvet! Got up anyway and set off to drive back to Northampton with mum in toe :-). Ended up running around like a mad woman getting sorted for work but just managed to get to work on time.  last night was my pamper evening and i was very much looking forward to having some friends over ans getting pampered. Angela, Steph, Jo, Gemma and Evelyn came and i also got to have cuddles with my baby Tommy :-) was an awesome night ans steph even stayed over so i wasn't lonely lol!
got up for work this morning. - Gave Steph an eternity necklace as she is such a good friend and it has meaning for the both of us. :-)
work was busy today and i found myself wanting to pull my hair out again lol. but hey ho just got to get on with it and it keeps me busy and occupied :-)
Amy has come over tonight to stay yeyyy. i made us dinner and we have just been chilling at my house. Even had the piggies out te he the cheeky Monkeys!! We are currently watching Saturdays xfactor on ITV catch up TV. Looking forward to tomorrow as we are off to London with Hayley yeyyy. Then its back for dinner at Bella Italia and Mum and friends are coming. Hazel and Jimmy are also coming over later in the evening yeyy.  I will feel sad tomorrow as eddy will not be here buttt i am lucky to have such great friends and family around me. so very lucky xx  1 year ago tomorrow i was flying off to Monte Carlo. This year off to London wahooo. Its not where you go its what you make of it and London is close to my heart now.  well i could sit here and chat al night but i wont :-p
