Long time, no blog...

Hi Retro Lovers,

I know, it's been a while (and that's an incredible understatement). I'm totally and utterly rubbish and have been neglecting my blogging duties for a whole nine months. For this, I can only apologise and promise you all that I plan to get back to blogging in the new year.

There have been reasons for my absence however and in the hope of avoiding a boredom inducing fifty two page essay that none of you will find stimulating to read, I'll try and keep this as short and as sweet as possible. As I'm sure some of you may know, I embarked upon a change of career at the start of 2013 and as it always does, time has quite literally flown and I've been putting my all into passing my course and pretty much nothing else. In fact looking back, it seems like I've been living the life of a recluse and I'm beginning to realise that whoever said that people could multi task may well have been lying. But with only two weeks to go until my course finishes and with Christmas on the horizon also, this last month especially has felt like a mad panic whirlwind but the end is finally in sight. Hurrah!

But one thing I've realised is that I've really missed blogging and with a new year brings new and exciting blogging ideas, lots more time and maybe even a new laptop (one can dream!).

So I do hope you all have happy and peaceful Christmases and very prosperous New Years and I'll be seeing you all in 2014 with some exciting (and regular!) vintage updates.

Keep you posted,

Helen. xxx
