Day 13

Tonight...was...AWESOME!!!!!

My throat is killing me, and is definitely going to be worse tomorrow...but it was kinda worth it :p

I'll start at the beginning of my day though...Woke up...did NOT want to get out of bed. It felt like I was swallowing knives. Got ready, and ran into Jelly in the hall. I tried to say hi to him, and that's when I discovered my lack of voice. I thought at first that maybe I was just whispering cuz I knew Josh was in bed. Then I got downstairs, Tim asked me how I was...and when I went to say "I've been better"...I think all that really came out was "I...etter".

Josh woke up and the first thing he said to me was "You sound stupid! Croaky Boy!"...Gee, Thanks cuz! Anyway, I sounded like a man and could hardly get any words out. Getting them ready for school was a real strain on my throat. It was hurting SO much!

I got about an hours rest between dropping Zach off at school, talking to the heating man, and then picking Zach up again. I then spoke from about 12 o'clock ON....ouch!

Heloise got home just after Zach and I had lunch. I took Zach for a walk to the High Street - picked up some groceries - *He got a bouncy ball and a glow in the dark alien*, and then we went to Boots (a pharmacy) to get some soap, eye liner sharpener etc lol. We carried it all home, dropped it off and Heloise, Zach and I left to see if Nathaniel needed picking up from school. He was well enough that he didn't want to come home, and he and Josh stayed for their soccer training. The rest of us walked up to the park and hung out for about an hour. It was a really nice day, and Heloise and I were feeling pretty lazy so we sat on the spinny thing...and tanned. I was in shorts and flip flops! It was soooo nice! We left there, picked up the boys and took about an hour and a half to get home. - A walk that should have taken about 10 minutes...15 tops! - But it was good. Josh and I had a conversation. We decided the two of us will go up to the pub once a week...just us, and spend some quality time together. He seemed pretty excited about that, which was nice to see :D

We got home, had some dinner, and Josh went to Cubs. Watched some tv with the boys, then they went up to bed, Josh got home and went up, and then it was time to go dancing!!!!!!!!

I had been sitting on the couch falling asleep, and my legs were killing me, as well as my throat, so I didn't think I was gonna make it. But considering I was making Heloise go, I couldn't bail. We got to the first place and it was a little uncomfortable...but then we went next door to Chicago's, and once I got on the dance floor it was AWESOME! And I was wide awake. I only left the dance floor twice, and that's cuz everyone else did, and I didn't want to be surrounded by numerous random people. I danced and sang all night, and can't believe how much better the clubs are here, compared to at home. Chelmsford was SO busy! It was great! The music selection was really random which made it even better. From S Club, to Venga Boys, Take That, to Black Eyed Peas, Michael Jackson and an entire mix dedicated to Dirty Dancing!! The best random song of the night though...Are you ready for this?



All I Want For Christmas! You should have seen the look on people's faces. It was awesome. It didn't stop anyone either. We just kept going. When Heloise wanted to leave around 1, the rest of the girls told me I was more than welcome to stay with them and they'd get me home...but I decided this time I'd leave. Hannah says next time I can't be so shy, and I'll have to stay. lol. I can't wait til next time!!!

For now though, as my throat is killing me, and I wouldn't be surprised if I get a little knock on the door early in the morning...I should get going. Speak to you soon xx
