bucks life

Happy birthday to you - 18 today!

The last day of 2014 was jam packed.  It was work til 12.30pm, mainly billing.  Then I did a quick scoot over to Brackley where I bought some tuna for the evening's sushi making and then went to PPP+H's to wish Miss P a very happy 18th birthday and to welcome her to the adult world.  

There was a great spread for a really enjoyable afternoon tea in P's honour, including a huge chocolate birthday cake  (yum).  We were ten plus two bubs by the end of the afternoon.  About 4pm I left to make way for the other half of the family to arrive and bombed back home for forty winks before heading over to Bedford to spend a lovely relaxing evening with S and E.

We made and ate some gorgeous sushi, played silly games, chatted, talked interior decorating and I was treated to two Strictly style dance displays.  

We wrote down our chosen word for 2015 (mine's 'connect' - last year's was 'present'), the things we didn't like about 2014, the things we did and some hopes, dreams and resolutions for 2015.  Mainly I want to 'connect' my actions to my thoughts and to consider things a bit more carefully and deeply with a view to changing some of my bad behaviours and habits.  Otherwise, I'd like to make it to Kenya this year sometime.  We then went outside to ceremonially burn our papers and sang a bit of 'Let It Go!'  I reckon we were like three nutty witches!

At midnight, we raised a glass of bubbly, watched the superb fireworks on telly and enjoyed the Queen concert before I came home to my own bed.  I'll be looking for another lie in in the morning.

Happy New Year, dear fellow blippers :))
