New Years Day 2012

Becky and Mike left around 12 noon for their 6 hour drive back to London. Their little hire car was packed to the brim with presents.

Started missing them as soon as I shut the front door after waving them off. The house feels so empty and quiet.

Felt a bit weary this afternoon so went to bed for a nap. OK now.

This is my 200th blip. Pretty amazing. Doesn't seem so long ago that I started on this blip lark - now it seems so much a part of my life.

Why chocolates? Well I seem to have loads of them - Becky and Mike were under the impression that I like chocolate ... how right they were.

Another reason is this line from the film Forrest Gump ...... " Life is like a box of chocolates; you never know what you're gonna get. " So on the first day 0f 2012 I wonder what the year will bring. ???????
