Warm Socks, hmm, yes, maybe a little ambitious, but all SHOULD be achievable, although I don’t frankly anticipate managing to achieve it all!

Especially, Maggie, the weight loss, in spite of the event in August which ought to be a bloomin’ good incentive! Rumour has it that Mrs Mooseface has her new frock already!

Your resolution list looks ambitious. Good luck!

As for shatter-splatter: Only had one of those this year. It was a smallish silver star. Cat got spooked by dog and went shooting beneath the tree, knocking the wee ornament off the branch by total accident. I only shrieked a little, but the spatter part of the shatter spread out amazingly and we were afraid to walk barefoot near the tree for the remainder of the holiday. I took the whole thing down two days ago, though I had no actual resolution. I just didn’t feel like trying to hang on to that Christmassy spirit until the end of March, like last year. I also didn’t want to have to dust all the baubles before packing them away.

Aren’t I on top of things, though?

Glad your Christmas was a good one, you got lots of embroidery done, and that you can work in a nice neat office, at home and abroad, for the next several days. I know. That’s all THAT will last. ;o)
