Anyway a few words to start the year off (albeit I have had a few Baileys and my typing is a little laboured).....(apologies for any typos not picked up by the good ole spell check).....
The Average family have said a fond farewell to 2011 and are looking forward to 2012. This time last year, a double redundancy was staring us in the face. Thankfully we both managed to obtain gainful employment and we still have a roof over our heads - ok the house is still in its half state of it's "do-up" and our savings dissapeared. But we made it, together as a family. We enjoyed a lovely family Christmas at home (no snow though) and a slightly less relaxed New Year at MiLA and FiLAs, but it has been great all the same.
This year is a big one, for us as a family and us as a country (and yeah I'm proud). So as a family the biggy must be that Master C will be going to school! Agh my big baby!! No doubt I shall write about it in glorious technicolour as I blub into my keyboard!
As a country.... the Olympics, the Queen's diamond jubilee and the hope that where we live will obtain city status. Party, party!
Resolutions for 2012? No, not our style. We have a list of things we want to do before the end of the year - we see it more as a series of objectives:
- Finish Missy A's bedroom, finish the bathroom, finish the office and finish the living room...no pressure then as the outside of the house also needs a paint! So under a programme of activity we shall get there before the end of the summer.
- Of course we aim to spend as much time together as a family - especially learning, walking (yep a few stone to shed) and cooking. We have worked out how and when.
Love and best wishes
Mrs A x
