And finally… A Very Happy New Year
friday 26 january 2012
Thanksgiving is well and truly over, Christmas has come and
gone and we have almost completed the first month of this
beautifulNew Year. How exciting it was to once again reach
that point in a year when one gets to wipe the slate clean and
prepare tobegin afresh. I have finally managed to quit smoking
(actually it’s been over 3 months now – with only a
couple of minor slip ups) and I have been blessed
enough to enter 2012 with a job.
