A Very Happy and Healthy New Year!

What a week for snow and ice - made getting around very difficult. The family managed down (just) for Christmas and we had a good time together. However, there was a mad rush for son and girlfriend to get back down the hill on Boxing Day before being snowed in - and they had a long drive. We did manage an icy walk in the village late on Christmas afternoon!

Still working on husband's website in between the festivities - new business about to start very soon! Also have church newsletter to do for this weekend; almost forgot about it in amongst the holiday comings and goings. Managed to do one article for Suite101 and it has been given an Editor's Choice Award! Really delighted as it's about writing romantic short stories, using the five senses.

Daughter, son and girlfriend are coming for Hogmanay (meal at local restaurant) and New Year's Day, when I'll do my usual home-made steak pie.

Looking forward as always to beginning a brand new year. There is such a sense of expectation in wondering what it will bring. And I love getting organised with a new diary - if only I could attain all the the writing goals I set with such optimism!
