Happy New Year ๐ฅณ.
First New Year's Eve I have been sat outside round a fire pit. We had blankets as well , just three ladies . I had a couple of glasses of wine , then some hot chocolate before being walked home by a kindly neighbour and his dog. I was in bed for 12.40@m . Then mins later the local lunatic family decided to have a fight in the street ! Anyway it was a lovely surprise evening.ยNot much happening today apart from some housework, I still have the cough that I have had since November, I am hoping my chest X-ray is ok as well and it's just a winter cough and not the start of another lung issue.ยLife is an adventure, never stop exploring.5 -
Your evening sounds lovely. I just love it when unexpected things like that happen.ยFingers crossed that your chest X-rays are ok.
I was sorry to hear about your friends mumยJanuary spends - ยฃ587.584 -
