Riding the Waves to Eternity: Hangin’ with the Cosmic Surfer

Ah-choo!

A major snort and sneeze into a handkerchief tells me all I need to know about how I will be bringing in the New Year.  After doing well all week I started to feel dodgy last night and after a difficult night’s sleep (or otherwise) have felt duff for most of the day.  I went out for some fresh air earlier which was fine but I’ve been knackered since.

And so my Hogmanay has been spent watching Battlestar Galactica Season 1 on DVD and feeling woolly.  I have some red wine here for medicinal purposes though.

So 2010 comes to an end with a bit of a whimper which is a shame because on the whole it has been a good year.  The two negatives, such as they are, are the continuing issues with my blood-pressure which remains higher than I would like and also a problem with me knee following a fall back in November. I thought I had bruised it but I rather suspect that I sprained it.  Of course I worked this out after I had been walking to work through a foot and a half of snow for a couple of weeks. Duh!

But let’s leave the negatives behind. I have reason to believe that 2011 will be a good year and that is where my focus is now both for myself and for all of you.  So that’s it for 2010: farewell to the old year and welcome the new.

A pocket full of money and a cellar full of beer
I wish you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year
