I'm feeling very lonely since Matthew left. It's been amazing; we've really enjoyed eachothers company. He arrived late Friday night so we just chilled and caught up with our tv for the week.
On Saturday morning, I treated him to the best waffles ever, if I say so myself. We didn't think we'd have enough time to fit in a trip to sprinkles, especially with my poorly foot, so I brought sprinkles home!
This was followed by Saints v Chelsea! We all had tickets so went to St Marys to (hopefully) see them slaughter Chelsea! It was actually a really good game, and we won 2-1. I was super glad Matthew got to see them win, would have been a bit poo if they had lost. We got dominos after and watched Doctor who. Personally, I thought the episode was a bit crap. Nothing really happened and there was no real villain or action or anything. Hope next week's is better.
On Sunday we chilled, ate a big fat roast and ended up going to the hospital. I'm not sure how but I injured my foot and it had been hurting for a couple weeks, but not bad enough for me to consider it broken. It was getting worse, though and I couldnt move my toes or anything so thought it was best to get it looked at. Turns out it was just a pulled tendon so nothing major :) I've been on a bit of a bread making hype lately so I made ham cheese and chive bread, which was yummy.
On Monday, we didn't do much except go out for dinner with another Toby couple. We went to The Cowherds on Southampton Common, never eaten there but looked nice. It was actually really lovely, and we were sat with the sun shining in on our table which was a rare treat. After, we went round the fair a little and Matthew won me another teddy! It was a lovely evening and after we played monopoly and I beat everyone, of course.
Tuesday was the best day. We went to Brighton to celebrate being together 4 years. In the past, we have done quite extravagant things... Our first anniversary was a trip to thorpe park and an overnight stay in a luxury cabin. For our 2 year we had a weekend in London, and last year I was treated to a night in the grand harbour hotel - SO posh! But this year, things are different as we live in the same city, we see eachother a lot and him coming down felt special enough without needing to go on a fancy weekend away. Brighton seemed perfect, and it was.
We spent the day wandering around Brighton lanes, popping in the cute little shops and looking at things we would never buy but would love to own. The weather couldn't have been better considering what it's been like lately, and we had so much fun walking down along the pier, in the arcade and sat in the deckchairs in the sunshine :)
It was a lovely way to celebrate being with this one for 4 years. It feels like it has flown by, yet at the same time I can't really remember my life without him. I've grown up with him, and he has with me. We've changed each other, for the good. We've made eachother into better people. It's been far from easy, at times, and things have pushed us to the edge, like with any couple, but we are strong and have come through them all. I wouldn't want a life without him in it, he is too entwined in mine now and so basically he is stuck with me. And I am with him, although there are worse people to be stuck with. I'm actually finding it really hard to put into words how I feel about him. But these past few days have made me fall in love all over again, and realise that what we have is special, and definitely worth fighting for.
Love love love, xxx
