So that’s it then! Christmas is officially over and my waistline is the only evidence of our period of indulgence. After a rather large lunch, Nicki helped us remove the cards and dismantle all the decorations and the tree. The cards are now in the recycling bin and the decorations and the tree are back in their ‘other’ home – the rafters in the garage.
I feel a diet coming on and to make life easier, any food still in the house that contains a hint of ‘junk’ about it, is now considered contraband. It’s either been given away – or filed under ‘b’ for bin. Bye-bye then: chilli-peanuts, chocolate nuts and raisins, cake, crisps, salsa dips and all that beer – I’ll miss you!!
With the ‘other event’ coming up at the end of the year, that’s another good reason to get into shape – it’s just I’m not sure what that shape will be – a dodecahedron maybe?
We chilled-out in the afternoon, watching Elizabeth – The Golden Age recorded earlier in the week on ITV1 HD.
I got into blogging quite late in life, not publishing my first post until 2004 – well into my 40s! My lifelong love of technology and communication (in all its forms), together with a fondness for the art of writing seemed to be the perfect combination to contribute a few words to the online community. But I’m no Samuel Pepys! If you’re looking for deep and meaningful comments on a variety of subjects, then you’ve arrived at the wrong site! I only pen for pleasure! On average, my posts appear about twice per month, covering family & friends, cinema visits, eating out, holiday experiences and techy stuff. Oh, and as this is my hobby, there are no sponsored links nor adverts here – it’s all done with love!
I hope you find it enjoyable, interesting and occasionally, even helpful!
