I'm very glad that I blogged to remember a few milestones of 2008. So much happened over the Christmas period, it would be hard to try and mention it all in this one post - one very memorable thing to happen on 31st December, was that Mr Monda asked me to marry him. It has only taken 12 years to reach this point, so obviously it took me a while to decide whether or not he was the right one for me. Eventually after a few seconds of decision making, I said yes. This proposal was not done on a whim mind you, he was well prepared - I received a plywood postable ring in the mail, and a little message asking me to be his 'proper missus'. Now, who said romance was dead?
I'm not sure this ring will stand the test of time however, so I have been checking some designs by Chris Parry, as I really like his work.Back at work tomorrow and back into something of a routine, which in a way will be nice, but I'd be lying if I said that I wouldn't just like just a bit more time off - at least to to adjust to those early mornings again.

Oh what lovely news!
many congratulations to you and mr M.
I was with my hubbie 8 yrs before we decided to get married, although he never proposed as such, it was more mutual consent, v unromantic! But still, i love being a Mrs however it came about.
I'm really thrilled for you, what a lovely start to the year
