Day to Day

Hi All,

Hope you all had a great Christmas and are looking forward to a good new year and all that 2013 brings.

Had a good Christmas here apart from poor Deb has been ill almost the whole time, although she did manage to get through Christmas day.  I think it has been this flu/cold virus that has been going round.  The good new is that she is on the road to recovery and the worst seems to be over, so she may get to enjoy New Years Eve !!!!!!!

Well the weather has been awful so we have not been able to get out either (Deb being Ill hasnt made a difference).  The beauty of the internet has meant that we were still able to pick up some bargains in the boxing day sales (mostly from HMV online).  You should check out their Bluray sale (its the best on the net).  Picked up some more presents of people and so am just waiting for them to arrive.

As the weather has been bad and we have been confined to the house (so to speak), we have watched a LOT of tv and films including Mr Stink, Miranda, It'll be alright on the night, Doctor who and several others on tv.  Dvd/Bluray wise we have watched Fred Claus, Mr Bean's Holiday, Santa Paws 1 and 2, Hop, Nativity, Four Christmases and lots more.  I have also started to watch (finally....) my boxset of Band of Brothers.  I am hooked so far.

Not a lot happening other than that.  I have decided that i am making two new years resolutions.

1. Start doing a lot more writing
2. Stop biting my nails.

the reason behind number 1 is i have several stories that i have part-written and they are just sitting on my PC doing nothing.  I have been told that i am a good writer and if that is my gift its about time i started to use it and not sit around on my ass all day just wondering what might be.  The number 2 is because i am one of lifes nail biters and its starting to annoy even me.  Whether i am watching a tense football match or just watching a dvd i find myself biting my nails.  Not only does it make your fingers look unsightly, but it also causes some pain and discomfort which i intend to avoid.

I will let you know how i do with both.
