HELLO WEEK!

This week I'm saying:

HELLO to the last few days of 2013...how did that happen?!

HELLO to the first few days of 2014...how did THAT happen?!

HELLO to just Boo and I being here, after having Craig and Kirsty with us for a few days

HELLO to working out the time difference between here and China...that's where Craig flew to yesterday!

HELLO to going out with friends for dinner on New Year's Eve

HELLO to arguing with myself  (again) about whether I should actually be in Scotland ...dad is back in hospital, but once he is stabilised they will let him home again...mum is insisting that she and my brothers can cope   (which I know they actually CAN)

HELLO to enjoying the last few days of looking at my Christmas decorations.before they come down at the weekend

HELLO to planning a trip mid-January...and NOT to the UK!

HELLO to wishing you and yours  a peaceful, healthy and happy 2014!





Thanks for dropping by!
Take care of you

Taking a Break......

......in blustery, freezing Central Scotland. I arrived into Glasgow Airport, gripping the sides of my seat and sending up prayers that if this was to be 'the end', that it would be quick and painless! However, our pilot very skillfully managed to get us on the ground...and much as I'm not a fan of all that clapping that goes on when the plane lands, that man deserved it last night!


So today starts the rounds of visiting friends and family ,,,and of course that entails the coffees, cake, drinks and meals that go along with it...willpower, please don't totally desert me!


I  left Boo chewing on her new Christmas reindeer, and looking forward to be totally spoiled by mum and dad!  








DH arrives on Friday, so we will spend a few days over the New Year here, and then we head down to  NE England for a few days there.....we are actually managing to spend (almost) a week together...YAY!


There probably won't be many posts in the next ten days or so, though I'm hoping to be able to get round to checking in and seeing what everyone's up to.


Thanks for dropping by!
Take care of you
