Balanced Diet

Balanced on a tin of chocolates anyway. Smoked salmon and oatcakes for lunch and doubtless something similar tonight.

I like Boxing Day. Better than Christmas Day most years as the pressure's off. Though I did enjoy yesterday and in the circumstances we did very well to see all our family. We had to drive but that was fine. We saw all three grandchildren in various states of (over) excitement and (over) exhaustion and all three were adorable. We had a couple of walks then came home before it was dark. A bit of festive food, opened gifts and watched a movie. Low key and delightful.

Slept really badly and awoke to a) Level 4 restrictions for who knows how long and b) Storm Bella. I need to get out for some air so it'll be full waterproofs.

But there's plenty of chocolate, a family zoom at 4 pm and clean bedding to sink into at the end of the day.

Happy Boxing Day blippers. Hope you're merry and bright.
