Monday Morning Blues!

Well, after such a lovely restful weekend, it was definitely a struggle waking up this morning :-( Oh well, only a couple more days until the shortest day of the year, then gradually we will start to see the days lengthening - I am yearning for a bit of warmth in the sun. It was so dark and cold outside when I left for work. Still, the big motivator is that I only have a few more days to go until we finish work for Christmas so I am counting down the days! I will see if I can add one of those Ticker gadgets to my Blog so I can do a count-down when something important is happening.

I think DH and I will be planning to stay overnight in a nice hotel we know for New Year's Eve. He is ringing up today to see what they are doing for the New Year celebrations - it was all very spur of the moment (i.e. last night as we were washing-up :-) , so we will see what happens. I am quite happy whatever we do really, as I am rather a home-bird at Christmas, but he likes the idea of us having a nice leisurely meal, rather than dashing around sorting things out (which normally happens over the Festive Season!) and it will be nice just to spend a bit of that Quality Time that gets talked about all over the place (but then people say "What's That??) LOL

I am planning to go to Yoga at Lunchtime today (we have a gym at work and there is a really lovely lady who is an ace Yoga teacher who comes in on Mondays and Tuesdays). Its the best medicine I know for de-stressing and feeling soooo relaxed. I had a bad back about 6 years ago and since then, as long as I do my Yoga either at work or home (which is really hard to do, because it involves me having to be motivated enough not to be distracted!!), then it has not troubled me greatly.

Well, Mondays being what they are, I don't have much else to update you on, but still, have a fab day and remember ....
Keep Crafting!

Monday mornings are the worst... I feel I have very very much in common with Garfield...
We never "celebrate" New Year's eve nor the 1st of jan. We just have a good meal, put the phone down, and watch a good movie... I think this has to do with the fear that the next year might not be as happy as the finishing one...

Today we had some snow and freezing rain, but yesterday was gloriously sunny here :)
New Years is pretty low-key with us, too - lots of movie watching and taking down the Christmas trees.
