around we go again


A new year, a chance to wipe the slate clean and start afresh or is it? I've been reading a few of my favourite blogs of late and many seem to be feeling like January is proving to be less than the shiny new year they had hoped for.

It's funny how 1 Jan rolls around year after year and there is an expectation that the year ahead will somehow have a totally different feel to it on that very day. Seems people are setting goals, finding words that they hope to live by, making promises to themselves and generally wanting the year ahead to be different to the one just past.

I'm easing my way into the new year with very little in the way of expectations. I have been able to look back on the year that was and know it took a hell of alot out of me. My festive period was spent avoiding going far from home and then when I was out all I wanted to do was get home. I slept, boy did I sleep. I couldn't believe how much sleep I needed but it was something I was not about to ignore. The last 3 months of last year reduced me to a person that had absolutely nothing left to give by the end.

So 2015 what will you deliver? It's kind of exciting to ponder such a question but then again I'd rather not know. Just serve it up and I'll deal with you as best I can at the time.

One thing I do know is I have two holidays book for the year and the most exciting part a whole 12 months of massages booked, yep they're all in the diary and that's certainly something to look forward to.

I'm hoping for a calm and kind year and will be doing my best to ensure it is just that.

I hope you are enjoying 2015 thus far.
