It's mid-festive season already, and the New Year is approaching fast. So far Christmas has been a five-day pyjama party for me, hurrah! I wonder if I can make it last a whole week? Probably. I'm not proud, and quite happy to answer the door and take in grocery deliveries wearing PJs.
It is a very peculiar time. Everyone here took the Bank Holiday in lieu of Sunday's Boxing Day very seriously, and it was so quiet here, aided by the weather which was dark, windy, freezing and brought ice and snow overnight. This morning the back garden was so snowy and icy the dog slipped down a gap by the fence and had to be rescued - no harm done, except she was very cold and I had to wash her jumper and dry it on the radiator. That's the level of excitement here, and I'm happy for it to be that way!
Can anyone imagine what Hogmanay in lockdown will be like? I'm curious to see what will happen. I'm afraid I'm rather boring, preferring a quiet night in with Jools Holland's Hootenanny (if I manage to stay up that late) and a glass of fizz to any amount of partying, so probably not so different here ...
Anyway, I hope you are finding something to make you happy and rejoice even if your plans were spoiled, and I wish you all a very happy 2021.
