My New Year's has been quiet, I successfully made challah bread with a fig filling that was used in French bread this morning and was delicious. This past year has been full of so much good and bad that I'm ready for a new one especially where I can get more settled.
The big things that I want to do in the coming year are travel more, find ways to be more social and creative in my new neighborhood and be active as much as I can in my new job at my old place. I just want to build on the new foundations that I created last year and trust that they won't disappear. I think that was the biggest scar that my bad landlady and mice experience left me with, this worry and sense of uncertainty especially in my home. The new place is lovely and the management so far are great but I'm taking my time feeling settled.
For Yuletide I wrote
A Divided Duty, an October Daye fic of the teens hanging out together. I was very lucky that my request was a fic that I've been wanting to write.
Next week, I'm back to work and will have two lovely paychecks, one in my mail and one later this week, which along with holiday money will go towards making my home feel like a home. Also I'm going to take one of my SWs toys to live on my desk so work feels more like my space. I have things I meant to mail that will go out at some point and want to spend more time with my friends. I hope everyone has a wonderful new year.
