Precious,Posing

The first time I wrote the date 01/01/14 was today, in pencil on the first egg of the year at 7am. I was mindful of how relaxing it was to pop the date on something so casual , instead of the usual round of documents, papers and tenders that a work day

holds. Today being the first of the year is (of course) a holiday in Australia so blessedly relaxed.
First proper blog post!!!! Very exciting and hopefully the first of many, although we will see how the year pans out.
In three weeks time I will be leaving my paid work of 14 years to take a sabbatical / take stock/ have a rest/ think about what I would like to do with the rest of my life……..rather than the usual hurry burly of plane trips,meetings and general work responsibilities.
How will it feel?….. Don’t know yet but I can’t wait to find out…..roll on the 24th Jan…..not many sleeps now.
Now a duck wants my attention; not one of the menagerie, Dinner for New Year’s Day (no, obviously I am not one of the vegetarian animal lovers, although I do moderate red meat)….. Mainly birds and fish for me ( tis ok, the ones in the tank can’t hear me)…… Will away and get the bird in the oven.
