Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year

Just a quick post to wish everyone a HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!

I hope everyone is having a fabulous Christmas!  Christmas in our house usually lasts a lot longer than the normal couple of days holiday.  We try and fit in as many things as possible into the time when my sisters are off work, whether that is going to see the 3rd Hobbit film several times, or having a "story day" when we all write our story, or making a start of some crafts for next year's County Show.  Ginny got a crochet set and instructions for Christmas and has since made a fabulous little car seat blanket for the crochet class next year!  She's only had it a couple of days!  How does she do it?  Sheer bloody-mindedness, I should think!

We did, in fact, have a white Christmas but not in the traditional way.  The ground was so icy, the footpaths, roads and grass were covered in a layer of white.  On Christmas Day when I was walking the dog in the evening, the pavement was glistening like stars.  It looked like someone had emptied several bottles of glitter onto the path!

I'm sat here wondering whether or not I will finally get my shop launched this coming year.  2015 is certainly full of possibilities.  What are your aims for the New Year?
