Happy new year! Are you ready for 2016? I am.
Although I *loved* our Christmas and New Year celebrations, I have been champing at the bit to start a new year. 2015 didn't start off very well and a small incident shook my confidence massively. I got a grip of everything towards the end of the year and just felt impatient to work on my new venture and my 'self-development'. (Sorry, I have to warn you that this year is going to be a huge learning curve for me and I bet I'll be getting deep and using knobby psychobabble.)
Anyway, we saw Wicked! at the theatre yesterday in London. It is my new favourite show. At the very start I had a sinking feeling that it wasn't my cup of tea but came out singing "Wonderful, they call me Wonderful" as you do. Loved the whole back story of the witch. Seriously, a sparkly pretty good witch and a green, dark, bad witch on stage together being besties? Perfect. Really want to take Izzie, my little niece, to see it. She would love it.
** I just have to interrupt this blog post to let you know that I had new, wireless, headphones for Christmas and oh my word they are a revelation. I can dance about the house without getting in a tangle with the cable. Currently doing a seated shimmy to that bonkers song about peanut butter jelly. As you were. **
We've had a really relaxed day today and it has been super cosy. Fires roaring in both rooms downstairs and a spoiling breakfast of huge English muffins with smoked salmon and scrambled egg. I'm cooking mac and cheese later and then I promised to join Andrew for a game of Rock Band on the ps4. Can't decide whether to be lead singer or lead guitarist. Decisions.
(The random photo above is of Lizzie on Wednesday. I changed the seat covers in my sewing room to ivory linen and she's not allowed on them with her mucky paws. Isn't she a cutie.)
Have a fab weekend!
