2½ weeks till a new year begins..

...and boy am I going to be glad to see the back of this one. Not that I believe you have to wait until the new year to restart your life but after the year I've had it'll be nice to draw the line under it.

flooding, burglary and health issues

Yep those three reasons have made it overall a pretty rubbish year. The only positives I can take is that I learnt how little possessions mean to me. Doesn't mean that I'm not still gutted that the only place that I had my New York photos was on the stolen laptop. Still they can't steal memories.

Flooding destroyed my living room. Guess that taught me how sweet home is for me!

Health has been affected due to hypothyroidism


Now that I'm feeling better maybe the effects of that were a major part in my procrastinating ways?

The positives from this year

I like to leave things on a positive note so very briefly here's the good stuff to take from this year:

holidays; fun, enjoyable, new places and with New York - life changing
career; I have a new focus
health; I have a diagnosis for my problems
nights out; new friends, old friends, old acquaintances, enjoyed time with them all
volunteering; fun, new skills, good experience, feels good
family; closer than ever, appreciate them (particularly in a crisis!)
marriage; happy, close, supportive, loving
home; redecorated after flood though still need to finish that damn kitchen!
experiences; paul mccartney live=amazing, roller disco-ing, horse races, travelling alone, navigating london alone, camping. all fun, scary and new!
and finally at least I can say that my crisis management skills have developed!!
