The Sunday Post #2

The Sunday Post is a 'meme' created by Kim over at caffinatedbookreviewer. I came across her blog a while back and absolutely fell in love with it so definitely go check it out. I decided that I would participate in this every week simply because it will help me not only keep track of my blog but also it will add more personal information about me for you. So without further ado, my second Sunday Post.

Monday was my first day where I could just completely chill out. My nephew came up and me and my sister blew a pool up for him, and when I say blew it up I literally mean we had to do it ourselves because we couldn't find our pump. Roman (my nephew) loved it though. He's such an outdoorsy little boy, only 22 months. The rest of the week was a slow week with just me and my boyfriend hanging out and also hanging out a lot with my sister. 

Unfortunately, on Friday my bampi passed away. It's been a hard couple of months trying to come to terms with his cancer and everything that's been happening. Don't want to go into too much detail simply because I'm quite a private person but I wanted to mention him on my blog because he was an absolutely amazing man. I keep catching myself thinking about him and the tears come flooding. I will miss him loads but it's all about helping my nan and mum as much as possible now!! 

My boyfriend has been there for me a lot with this which is great and I'm trying to keep myself occupied enough so that it's not constantly on my mind (although that makes me feel somewhat guilty). I'm not sure if I'm going to be as active on my blog this week but I'll definitely try my best. It should help me take my mind off things though!

Hope your guys weeks have been better.

  4. I'm so sorry about the loss of your bampi :( Take care. I'm glad your boyfriend had been there and is supportive. Enjoy your reading. I've been curious about Carrie, as I've been reading King's On Writing and he talked a bit about how he got started with that.
