almost new year
I'm just back from a fab break in LA, seeing films (Mary Poppins/Vice) and shows (Come From Away/Wicked) and eating both badly and really well, with a friend I hadn't seen in far too long. I have come back with a suitcase of lovely gifts and terrible candy.
Having done no work at all, my head is clearer, and I'm ready for the year ahead. My fridge is full of things to make stews and soups; the soy yogurt is already on the go; my cupboards are stocked for the apocalypse; tomorrow I'm getting the vitamin D lamp out, and going to start walking again. And I have things to write, hurrah.
Underspent on hols so that's some more in the unemployment fund, and new duvet covers arriving from the sales.
I am happy to be back in my simple little home, and keen to find more balance next year. My health needs to be the focus and I'm glad an opportunity for breathing space is coming up.
Parent related calls: dad in another fight with a resident at the care home; police control room with a neighbour wondering where dad was. Pretty low stress. Next visit is end of Jan, if the weather is ok.
Just watching this last episode of Extreme Couponing and changing over the laundry before bed. Hoping my body seamlessly adjusts to UK time.
Getting a chauffeur back from the airport was the best idea ever.
