December 2016

Well can you believe it, Christmas over for yet another year! I hope you all had a fabulous day, or days if you're like me.

​I also hope that the sadness of those that are no longer with us wasn't too much to bear and that you were able to look back at fond memories and happy times together.

I always feel quite emotional at this time of year, as one year draws to a close and we begin to get the sniff of new beginnings just around the corner. I'm not a massive fan of New Years Eve, to be honest it and I don't have the best track record. It marks the unfortunatly timed passing of my own Grandad, not to mention failed engagements, a VERY near miss with a malfunctioning firework and even Mini Goddess deciding that it would be a great time to being her journey into this world 6 weeks early.

That said I do love a fresh start, a new beginning, a chance to start over, reinventing yourself and becoming the person you truely want to be. 

So come Saturday night I'll be tucking myself up in bed and doing my best to sleep through the damn fireworks in readiness for getting up on sunday morning with a spring in my step as we venture into our new year.

​My first job of 2017 will be to rid the house of tinsel and trimmings as It's Mini Goddess's birthday on the 2nd so I need to make space for the birthday banners and another round of presents. I do love putting the Christmas tree up and all the decorations but I love the feeling of space you get when it all comes down again.

I'd love to hear what you love/hate about this time of year and how you celebrate and remember the loved ones that can't be with us so why not share it with me by leaveing a comment?

I'll be back to work on Tuesday the 3rd of January - see you all soon!
