With B in respite, I didn’t just go and get the paper, I went exploring as well! Limping around the local lanes on my wobbly legs..

1. A bracing walk along the fringes of dublin bay after a medical appointment
2. “All I want for Christmas is my new front teeth!” Got them now 🎉
3. The M50 was clear for both legs of the journey during rush hour. Is this a record????

1. B is back at her day service, so some resting, shopping, cleaning, admin and exercise all got done! #FeelingProductive
2. The Christmas Tree is NOT dead, so it’s not coming down 😊
3. Even with my current teeth issues, I’ve found I can still eat truffles if I quarter them #win

“This much light and glitter in such a small space feels like a physical manifestation of a long-suppressed feeling she can’t quite name. Something like hope.” There may have been a couple of happy tears for Ciara at this point 🥰
Loving this book so much!

1. Just B and I at home on Christmas Day, but I had a call from M, and a successful visit with E
2. The park was open and busy so we went for a walk. Lots of greetings were exchanged, making B v happy 😊
3. The 5 minute (alcohol-free) trifle for two was a great success, esp with B!

Me too, so I let Gemini have a go at a map of Ireland

1. Novavaxxed*
2. My favourite Christmas tree decoration
3. I was driving in the dublin Christmas traffic between 9.30am and 4.30pm, but managed to be in time for everything
*Novavax is the non MRNA covid vaccine which suits some people a lot better

1. One of my BFs loves the birthday present I got her. As usual, I was so worried that she wouldn’t #phew
2. The big IKEA shop done (wish list from DS)
3. Dark (ish) skies just 3km from the city border 🖤 So glad I moved here

1. B in respite so I’m getting a badly needed pre Xmas breather
2. Sorted getting #8Radio in my car: delete the Apple Music app and its “free” U2 album. I took long enough to do that didn’t I? 🙈
3. Had time to look up after I dropped B off, and take a pic of what I saw

I know we’re all supposed to be leaving Spotify, but I wanted at least one wrapped before I left (I used to share an account with my daughter). So here it is, and it looks as though I still like “weird” music, as some of my female friends describe it!
