    Thank you for all your Christmas wishes.

    Christmas Day was a quiet affair with my parents and myself. I saw the DGC in the morning and they were very excited and busy playing.

    I am suffering terribly with jet lag , a first for me . I keep going to bed at 5.30 . Tonight I only slept for 2 hours so have got up again.

    I have the DGC tomorrow and Friday so I need all the sleep I can get. I have been trying to keep up to date with diaries but haven't commented on any.

    Normality will hopefully return soon.

    Have succumbed to a really bad cough, that will be from the aeroplane. The sleeping is getting slightly better . I have had the DGC yesterday and today , their dad has taken over at 2pm. Their dad has not been very well recently, he is suffering from anxiety and depression, he has lost 2 stone in weight. Nearly everything is falling on DD , I am trying to help it's hard though , as I can see my DD who has also got a bad cough looking tired. He has help now and is back at work , so hopefully things will work out and he will recover soon.

    Money is all over the place , I need to put it in its right pots , I came back with money from hols , just other things are taking priority at the minute. My parents gave me money for Xmas and I think I am going to get a new laptop. Even though I have an iPad you still need a laptop , so will be researching that over the next while.

    I sound full of gloom , but I am just wanting to be over this cough , as everyone else does .

    It sounds like you had a wonderful time. It’s no wonder you feel a tad down - cough, jet lag, gloomy weather and family health worries. You’ll adjust back to reality soon - post holiday blues maybe ?
