Christmas & New Year ( Hogmony to Scottish people )

So I haven't really been updating my blog lately, just due to the fact that i am a lazy bastard and can't be doing with the mind numbing crap on writing somthing interesting when in reality i'm just not upto it lol.

Excuse me for the spelling mistakes, i haven't had sleep tonight but i wanted to let people know how my christmas went and new year

so where to start? well Kimberley and I spent christmas apart this year which was sad but was good kind of. She went to Irvine and i went to Edinburgh, Edinburgh and Irvine are around 70 miles apart so from the west coast of Scotland to the east coast of Scotland. Anyway, we made sure we cleaned the whole house before we left. because a messy home isn't a nice thing to come home too after travelling for around 2 and a half hours on a small crampted bus...

So after cleaning the house we packed our stuff and kimmi's dad picked her up and i got the bus to Edinburgh.

I arrived in Edinburgh and the bus to my parents house broke down but restarted again whilest i was walking home... yeah 20 minutes in the cold. how fun... anyway i arrived home and my dad made me a cup of tea to warm me up. we chatted and just watched tele (mum was working)

I actually got along with Andrew for once and we were chatting away and laughing and joking. I have realised Andrew has a very personal sense of homour. it's like he makes fun of you your faults but he does take it too far and for once i just didn't take his jokes personally because he didn't mean them in a bad way.

So christmas came the following day and we opned presents the family and it was really nice. I have and my brother have always been spoiled for christmas's and birthdays got whatever we wanted plus an extra £400 but this year no for obvious reasons.

And i knew it would be like this but to be quite honest. i got a better present i got the best christmas present ever. that no money or savings or vouchers could buy. i got my old dad back!!! That's all i wanted...

He sounded a lot better i mean his voice was more clear. he was making jokes and being bossy and shouting at Jack, and he looked a lot better aswell. I was just so happy....

Kimmi came over on the 28th, because her brothers 18th birthday was on the 26th and obviously couldn't miss that big day, we got him a really nice canvas painting and by the way on to gifts...

last year i felt so shitty because i could hardly afford any gifts not even gifts for Kimmi, so i made a promise last year to myself. i would never feel this bad again. so what happend was i saved and saved and saved. a christmas bank that you have to open with a can opener. i put my extra £1's £2's and Ten pound and twenty pound notes in! i saved £200 ! and i always had money coming through so i made sure i got everybody a good christmas present, i spent around £120 on kimmi little presents because people appreciate the little thing rather then a big bar of gold, although a big bar of gold would be nice...

I got my dad coins from his childhood, a book on his favourite band (black Sabbath), World war 2 coins. a voucher for a hardware store, and lots of small presents,

my mum i got, bath soaps, a nurse's watch, bracelets, perfume and other things

I got andrew and kirsty and richard things but im far too tired to write this out lol but they were good

i made sure i got everyone somthing and a card. i spent around £400 on presents

leading upto new year the whole family and kimmi and i went out for a meal to celebrate my dads 60th. it was really good and i told andrew i would pay half for his cake and half for my dads meal, so it just felt good spending money on more then one person rather then me or kimmi. just seeing there face glow so to speak was a good feeling... anyway we brought in the bells and drank and watched the fireworks from my brothers new house (my grandads old house which he is buying of my dad) he and my sister in law are spending money on reneovating it to make it all nice.. so we watched the fire works from the window and it was great! and when we walked in to 42 to bring in the new year i saw the best thing ever. my dad had a little shot of whisky to bring in the new year.. it felt so great seeing that!

Also I'm taking this with a pinch of salt because maybe my dad isn't trying to let people worry and is protecting them but he told me and in another conversation with my mum that he doesn't have c*ncer and its gone.... but like i said im taking that with a pinch of salt... i won't get my hopes up... im just appreciating having him around and my family...

anyway after we got home we went to our neibours party (our old flat) and they had a onsie party LOL it was actually cool getting drunk in a onsie, it was a batman one:D i don't even like batman, yeah fuck you batman fans ! nah only joking meh... im more of a wonder woman man.... god i sounded gay there... anyway before the party we went to see alladin at the panto, richard got me and kimmi tickets, kimmi's seat was behind a big poll so i said kimmi get up come with me, she came with me and i spoke to the manager and he moved us to better seats... actually front row seats... good eh?!

The best moments of 2013 had to be My dad getting the good news.. Moving again into a better flat with kimmi... kimmi's 21st party, meeting new people, even if half are wankers ! and my coffee machine <3

Anyway i better go now cause' i feel like a fucking zombie, no joke honest! anyway i hope YOU had a great christmas and a great new year! :)
