Happy New Year.

New Year is always a bit strange, we ended up watching rubbish on the television and then going to bed. Up at six for the paper round, then back to bed. Need sleep at this time of year. Lazy day. Only 357 shopping days left till Christmas.

Avoided some argument with an American on the web today, he insisted on correcting my spelling. He didn't like the English version, tried to tell me that his was the accepted version and the whole world agreed. Made sense to ignore him rather than getting into some argument about the fact it was an Englishman who invented the web. An American lady leapt to my defence.
Enough of that.

Need to buckle down and do some assignments, four to do and so little time.

Still recovering from Christmas at the in-laws, it was good on the whole, but glad to be back at home. Up is on the box tonight, need to look it up and find out what it is.

December 31st 2012

I guess the grey rain goes with the cold, not rocket science at this time of year. Looking outside, the grass is green, the road is quiet.

New Years Eve is a strange time of year, stay up, go out, go to bed. The latter usually wins. I toyed with the idea of Trafalgar Square, never been at this time of year. Is it worth it?, probably not, too many people and empty bottles.

What should I do? Everyone seems to be watching something on the TV. Not sure what, not sure I need to know. I feel I should be doing something, just not sure what. Not quite true, I do know, just can't face it.

It's often like that, just hope this coming year will be better. But hoping it will be better is not enough, need to take the year by the horns and plan it.

First thing is time management, good old Ivy Lee. If I can stick by what Ivy said I will be fine.
