Christmas Eve spent at friends, along with one very badly behaved guest, with whom I don't need to spend another evening. Life too short to waste on rude and aggressive individuals. Christmas Day did not bring me an iPad or a new car (why am I not surprised), though it did bring friends and family aplenty. We had a small party on the 27th (ugly sweaters once again), and spent New Year's Eve with friends and family once more. Then, the cold struck. So, taking life easy today.
Last puppy still here, she goes on Sunday, and I can't wait. She is a biting, widdling monster, and causes a disproportionate amount of trouble for her size! She is immensely loveable, and its proving difficult not to become attached to her.
The big boy spent New Year in Edinburgh with friends, and has made his weary way home now for some rest and recuperation. Baby boy celebrated in Skegness with old friends and had a thoroughly lovely time catching up with University news of old class mates. Quite a few of them graduate in 2013 so thoughts are turning to careers, Masters, travelling etc. The joys of being young.
My own thoughts, when not occupied with nose blowing and throat clearing, are mostly filled with ideas for a body of work at Art Skool for the Spring term. I have been offered a commission for a piece of art for a sitting room, and I must go and visit to see what can be done. I have a feeling sitting room art is not going to be for me.....
my own ugly sweater, needing a replacement for 2013!
my sister, who was upset that we seem to have the same taste in ugly sweaters....
