New year resolutions I must keep:
Chuck out all the stuff in my cosmetic bag and buy a whole lot of new colours .
Not to worry too much about anything. Things usually work out well enough if you hang on long enough, so I will remember to hang on.
Keep writing the diary every day in longhand. Never edit, or look at it again once the page is turned.
I promise to watch family antics with humour and love, only butting in if needed or asked ( but let me know in good time please)
View from the fig tree.

The nativity set bought from the Avon lady, many, many moons ago, has come out once again in all its glory. Everything is there; the three kings are just out of the picture. The scene is as fresh and bright as the first day, although many little hands have rearranged the scene over the years. I wonder which piece will go for a walk this year? Probably the donkey again!
Just seen this little bit of magic
on my way to the post tonight…..
nearly dropped the Christmas cards
on cosmic strings
something for the weekend
raw
with dust
before hairspray
from a 4 year old!
(well done sweet heart)
or framed study in pink and blue
