happy new year

You peeps, I feel like I should have something to say.

Some wisdom, something pretty, some summary of 2014. Truth is, I don't really have any sense of what a year is anymore.

I'd like to be more normal this year; work harder, have more energy, exercise, eat like a proper human eats, parent well, succeed a little - make some money, pay for grown up things like cars, holidays, dental work. I don't know about resolutions, though. I am not famous for resolve, wishes are much more my style.

I wish you all the best for the coming year, though. I stood in the doorway tonight, and shouted happy new year to my Polish neighbours, and watched someone else's fireworks bursting in the sky. Axl responded to Olivia's question about resolutions by saying that he was going to exercise, and to Parent and to ... give up smoking...! I am impressed by the resolve, even if these things are ongoing projects.

And it seems from this pic that 2015 is year of the sheep, which may mean nothing to anyone but me and my friend, but it makes me happy.
