That was never a year just now...

So the rest of this year seems to have whizzed past. I swear it was July five minutes ago. Work has kept me fairly busy, which has probably contributed. I had a couple of deadlines in October, and spent the last month of the year acting at a higher level. I managed to squeeze in a few fun things too. I made it to the Feast of Blessed Herman, and the Foundation Day Picnic, and irreparable and I hit the ABC plant fair and a local craft fair.

Now I'm on three weeks leave , which I feel like I have rather earned. We were originally going to have a fairly quiet Christmas at home, but my brother decided that he and his fiancee were going to get married on New Year's Eve instead of July as they originally were planning. So we changed plans at fairly short notice, dashed up on Christmas Eve, and we're currently in Queensland.

Most of this week I have spent lazing by the pool reading books. We had a noisy family Christmas, as you do when there are twelve for lunch, and we just got back from my brother's wedding, which was very nice. Going to sit up and see the fireworks at midnight then we have a day to recover before we get on a plane and come back to Adelaide.

Happy New Year to one and all!
