I am surrounded by a lot of talk about new year's resolutions and I hadn't really thought about it to be honest... but in retrospect, every time I walk the dogs in the evening I make life plans so I guess that counts for something!

j is finally home - a lovely early morning surprise to get his call. Our home doesn't quite feel like home without him in it. When I picked him up this morning I had forgotten how attractive my husband is, amazing!
