So what were the really lovely things that I learned over the Christmas break?
- Go out for the family Christmas Eve dinner - don't eat in - for lots of wonderful reasons!
- Have Skpe working on Christmas Eve so we can all feel close to those who are not with us
- Send beautiful Christmas cards - sending and receiving those is a real treat
- Don't send me those newsletters with a year of pictures - tell me about it during the year!
- Take no notice of when someone says "no presents" and just do what you feel like.
- Avoid giving children more than about three things as they cannot remember who gave them nor probably why they got them....
- Only buy half hams!
- and only eat Sally Beachley's fruit mince tarts
- Try to get more than three things done in a day - amazing how quickly you slow down to just getting one thing done - like "the washing" which you normally managed before work.
- Appreciate the friends made here at the Beaches.... The Whale Beach Walkers are too cool.
- Decorate the house - have fairy lights
- And decorate your car - people notice!
- And remember to breath
