THE-MOO... because... you NEED it!!!

So here we have it ï¿½ a few days into the new year I know but I wouldnï¿½t be me if I wasnï¿½t always late!!

2005 has been the most challenging, most difficult, most amusing, most terrifying, most AMAZING most defining year of my entire 23 years of life. I could probably write a gazillion pages full of analysing what happened, how and why? But that way I wonï¿½t be posting this until Iï¿½m 100. I have all of the details of these memories stored up forever in my teeny jam packed brain and every single thing that has happened to me this year has changed who I will become forever.

I want to thank every single one of you for your part in the year thatï¿½s gone and for the role you will continue to play in my life as it continues both in the real world and my online one. I LOVE YOU ALL SO MUCH YOU WOULDNï¿½T BELIEVE IT!!

I began 2005 as Mandy Price 22 year old final year drama student, short chubby completely hopeless insomniac averaging about 3 hours a night on a good night and prone to bouts of three days without any, writing in my old diary and taking blurry pictures on a mobile phone, excited about my upcoming wedding and petrified about everything else.

The year thar followed could not have changed me more here is a list of the important eventsï¿½ with random pics woohooo

Also littler things like ï¿½ changed pill 3 times, put on lots of weight, started swimming again, left my old church and failed to find a new one (yet) and most importantly to most of you I moved from writing unsent letters at no-map to keeping a real journal here at the-moo

It doesnï¿½t seem so much written that way but everything changed for me this year I went from renting a house with my girls and living the student life to being a married woman with a home a degree and far too many cats (haha) so much happened and I need now to tell you that the thing that made a difference to me this year was LOVE!! I suppose it has done every second Iï¿½ve ever lived but this year I truly learned how loved I was. People have gone not just out of their way but they have attempted to move mountains for me to make sure Iï¿½m ok and I have been so very very honoured to be me this year because for a lot of it I have not deserved the love.

So what do I want for the next year?

My first full year as Mrs Williamsï¿½.

I want to somehow give out MORE love than I receive

(I want to be a little bit thinner maybe too perhaps!!)

Itï¿½s been difficult it really has this year but it was definitely MY year and next year Iï¿½m looking forward to just enjoying my Husband my Friends and my life.

I hope you will all continue to be here to enjoy it with me!!

LOVELOVELOVELOVELOVE TO ALL!!!
