So here it is, Merry Christmas...
Sunday, December 20, 2009
I'm being a bit pre-emptive, I suppose, what with it not being Dec 25th yet.
Bloggy-business: the announcement of the winning definition will happen after Xmas; I haven't forgotten and there is definitely a prize afoot.
Other Business: I've been rattling around Leicester - I can recommend it - and generally being on extended holiday. All of that has to stop, alas, and I have to start taking life much more seriously now. Not that I want to, but it will be best all around if I do.
So hurrah for that.
And with that...rather pale and poor imitation of a blog post...here's a Christmas wish for the folks who read me:
My 2009 was both a high and low point, a series of triumphs and the long crawl out from under the biggest failure of my life. Now, at the death of the year, I can look forward to what 2010 will bring and be reasonably certain that the good things I did, the steps forward I took, far outnumber (if not outweigh) the bad and the backward. I can go forward, knowing that forward is the right direction and that if I only apply myself, I can do anything I set my mind to.
May your Christmas bring with it similar revelations, so that you can relax and enjoy the depth of winter with those you love, and that you emerge in spring refreshed and relaxed.
Merry Christmas, mes amis.

Sounds like you're sacrificing the year with due ceremony, good.
'2009 was both a high and low point' – strikes me how many people are saying the same for their diverse reasons. Odd, that.
Seasonish wishes back to you for soul-nourishing hibernation and a positive (re)start. :0)

Aww Dave, Merry Christmas to you too! My holiday was very suitable and I am glad for that. Vastly superior to last year when I was stuck on the far side of the world without a decent bit of Mexican food within a thousand miles. Ug, remind me not to go to Asia for long periods of time. Anyhow, I look forward to the new year and hope your new year's horizons are merry and bright. Keep on keeping on my friend. Your forward motion is commendable. I'll look you up next time I'm in the UK, whenever that will be:-)
