HAPPY BLOGGING NEW YEAR!

Well, better late than never...

That's it then... 2006 over and gone, and 2007 already 2 days old.

Well, since I've not been here at all in the last week, I guess I could fill you in on my Christmas and the days since.

Christmas Day was spent with a very leisurely morning... laid on the sofa under the cats. Eventually got up and opened my presents, which were lovely. Headed down to my sister's about 3pm for dinner (very good) and stayed there until about 3am Boxing Day morning. Oh, both Ba's went up (boo... not good...).

Boxing Day was spent down at my sister's again for a tea of leftovers (well, you've got to really, haven't you?), with a visit to Dad in hospital, and another return home in the wee small hours.

Had Wednesday off work, then back to the daily grind on Thursday, Friday and Saturday.

Hogmannay was spent in a sleepy daze - In fact, I fell asleep on the sofa and woke up about 11pm. Poured myself a Baileys and saw in the New Year alone. Then, about 2am I got a phonecall from my brother who was at my sister's with a bottle of champagne, so I got persuaded to get a taxi and come down... returned home about 7am.

So, New Year's Day passed in a doze. Made dinner for myself (pork chops and roasted veggies) and passed out on the sofa afterwards. Woke up in the early hours of this morning and I've just had a lazy day today.

Popped along to see Dad tonight... who has had ANOTHER fall trying to get up himself. If I were one of his nurses, I'd have him tethered to the bloody bed!

Well, it's cold up here, and I think there should still be a bit of a fire on downstairs, so I'm offski for a warm.

Oh, and both New Year's Day Ba's went bloody up as well... Bugger...
