Looking from the outside in....

It's been a strange festive period for me with the start being a horrible work day like no other on Christmas Eve when I was supposed to be having my first day of the holidays. It took me quite a few days to get over the shock of events and settle into resting, festive fun, relaxing and calming down. In between days such as the anniversary of Auntie's passing and having to go into work have made it even harder, not allowing me to switch off. I folded this week and found Auntie's absence this year so difficult. I did manage to spend some time with Amy and the girls, a lovely Christmas lunch, plenty of swag, some time with Libby and company, a wedding anniversary meal out which was lovely and tonking the girls at Monopoly. It wasn't the Christmas I had hoped for and I struggled but it was lovely to have some family time and this is the only thing that's important. Poor Amy now poorly in bed with a sickness bug, so it's just me and the girls this New Years Eve and ready for Anna's meatballs and pasta! 😋  I pray and hope that 2022 brings a different kind of year for my girls, one of freedom, joy, new experiences, new friendships, happiness, love and opportunity. They really do deserve it and it's my only wish for them both. My kind, feisty, belligerent, argumentative and lovely young ladies xx
