Happy New Year, I hope it got off to a good one. For many Monday will be their first day back after the seasonal break. I like many others headed back a little sooner as you know. I feel sorry for those like my son who was working on New Years Day. I find it depressing when I have been forced to work on those days when the world is enjoying the festivities of a fresh year beginning. I’m sure I am not the only one in that category. Even though I don’t go clubbing or to any parties I still enjoy having a glass to toast at the bell in the knowledge that I can have a long lie in the following morning as I did this year.
So what are my hopes for the coming year? Well one thing I am aiming for is to write more poems from my Nowhere collection. I’m not sure how may I have at the moment but I wish to try and swell the number into the hundred mark if possible. I would also like to find the time to pen another book though I really don’t see where the energy or time would come from. Each year seems to pass faster than the last one and I find that what I plan at the start of the year is less likely to get done. Maybe a shorter list would work better. Of course as you can tell I don’t have a very long list to begin with.
One other thing that I have planned though is to tile the hall, kitchen and bathroom floors. Magz was saying last year that she would like to have slate tiles running from the front door to the back. It will cost a bit but it will be worth it if it makes the missus happy. It is going to be a big job as well as expensive though I’ll worry about all of that when I have saved the necessary to pay for it all. That will take a few months with prices ever rising.
Well all the best for the coming year.
