Still Not Enough Rice Pudding

 

I had a great New Year.  Not many of us dressed up, but I was quite proud of what we managed to create with stuff from round the house. I got an origami pattern off the Web for my hat. Neil added to his golf tam o'shanter with a set of mini golf clubs.  A good time was had by all.   Zoe put on a great party and even organised pass the parcel. How cool was that! ? I won some air fresheners and custard.

 

Drank too much vodka,  but we started the year well with a run and I managed to get up early this morning to do sit ups. It has killed me not to have hot chocolate from the vending machine all day but I can be smug.

 

Sadly though, we had a blow today as N's parents won't be coming to the wedding. N's dad has recently lost his sight and is reluctant to go places he's not familiar with. Plus N and I are having clashes of ideas and I feel his disappointment underlies some of the difficulty. But it will be sorted and as special as we both want it to be,  I know.
