This post was meant to be a pre-Christmas how is your year going kind of post, then it was going to be a pre-new year wow where has the year gone post, and then it was going to be a new year we made it post and now its a well and truely in the new year post. Atlst to me we are well and truely in the new year. I feel like I have been in my new role for ages (I started on Monday so it's been 3 days lol). It's not that I know everything I need to know already, cos I sure don't. It just feels like the routine of the year is already there. Is that a bad thing...? I don't know, but I hope not.
So my year ended with me still not being able to do a full week of work thanks to post-covid fatigue or whatever you wanna call it. And ok so I wasn't diagnosed with anything cos that would have meant seeing my doc and I didn't wanna be 'that' person. Thankfully the two long wknds (which I spent very chilled) and the two short weeks seem to have helped. While I am not all better yet I am getting there, yay. I am confident I will make it through this week without needing any time off which is awesome. Am I napping every night after work then doing not much in the evening, ummm yes but I am making some great progress on some craft projects which is cool. And so long as I ignore two which I started many moons ago and have been shelved then I am almost completely up to date so mega yay there lol.
Christmas saw me and Glenny just chilling here, with a book, tv series and a bottle of wine hehe. It was actually a struggle to drink the whole bottle in the day and I had to stop partway through as I was rather drunk. Seems that happens when you don't really drink any more... go figure lol. Quite by accident I seem to have started drinking loads of water, and I actually really like it. Am not really noticing any differences but others are and I've been told I am looking better and much healthier which is always lovely to hear. Also has meant I can buy more treat food at the stupidmarket, that I am loving hehe, esp cos I can buy some of my expensive but amazingly tasty treats on a more regular basis, YAY lol.
New Years wknd Mum and Dad came over for a few nights, and Bro made a day trip over. Did we do much, no not really but it was lovely all the same. We did go out for dinner, to our fav Indian place in Havelock North om nom nom. Dad and I got up for the sunrise on New Years morning as well. Bit cloudy and probably not the best I've ever seen but it was quite cool in the sense it was very similar to the sunrise Mark got up and saw in Scotland. I am taking that to be a sign that 2024 aint gonna suck lol.
