Cyaaaaa 2016, you bastard

So here we are. It’s New Year’s Eve. It sounds so very cliché, but I cannot wait to say goodbye to 2016. This year has been my most challenging year to date. 

It’s been a long, hard year, full of pain and sadness, with still some good times, but not enough to level out the negative. I’ve lost friends, made some new ones. But, of course, the light in this very dark year has been my beautiful (but sometimes feral) son and his daddy, keeping me sane, and sometimes driving me insane. Just the way I like it. 

I don’t set New Years resolutions, but 2017 will be a year where I finally set some goals instead of sticking myself in a rut. 

You’ll still find me as Abi, the foul mouthed, sarcastic bitch, that likes to parent with biscuits and drink wine, but hopefully I’ll be able to drive, and I’ll be closer to becoming Mrs Daddy! (I’ll have a two year old next year, so wine consumption may well be at an all time high). And who knows, maybe I’ll really throw myself into this whole ‘writing a book’ thing. 

I’d like to take this opportunity to wish all of my family, friends and supporters a happy, healthy, and wonderful new year. As much as I’m looking forward to seeing what it brings for me, I’m excited to see what it brings for all of you too. And to the haters and fake friends, don’t change. You fuel me to make a better me just as much as the true ones. 

So, fuck you 2016, don’t let the door hit you on the way out 👋🏻

See you all on the other side! 😘
