I hope the day is/has been good for you. I'm opening with happy Christmas wishes because I don't want to depress anyone who may casually glance at the new blog entries and because I feel that writing a blog on this day, at this time should begin or at least contain a season's greetings and well wishes to everyone.

Please don't read any further if you want to maintain good feelings and general Christmas cheer because I'm going to start whining now.

Sorry for the inconvenience. ...

Because it was so late....or early depending on your point of view, I didn't want to use the hoover because it's quite loud and might disturb the neighbours. So I had to get down on my hands and knees and sweep the floor with a dustpan and brush.

I hoped to have the tree set up for when mum got back from walkies. Extremely wishful thinking. ...

You know. Ever since the year 2000 came around I've been getting pretty sick of the whole "the world's going to end" stuff. It's like every year someone has a theory or indisputable evidence that something's going to happen. It's pretty depressing. Not THAT depressing but a little depressing.

I was thinking of doing some baking today.

Well...

We heard the mice in ...
