HAPPY CHRISTMAS 2005!!!!

Its my favourite time of year once again, and even though the suburb I live near was the scene of racially motivated riots, and I can't get near the beach, and many other things are wrong with the world (the cartoon above captures the mood right now in Sydney perfectly), I am choosing to decorate the tree, enjoy special time with treasured family and friends (that would be you - whether in person or in cyberland), max out the credit card (hey Mum its OK! I am doing it to give joy to others...and, uh, also me!) and generally join in the spirit of the season.....and I haven't restricted my bonhomie to home, having decorated my department's work area, with my colleague, Michelle, so successfully that we won the office decorating competition, with the prize being an order-in gourmet lunch!

On top of all that, I have got my Christmas newsletter done, unlike last year when aliens abducted me, or I got amnesia or.....ah life just got in the way (see below), and in keeping with the online times we live in, its gone totally cyber. You are now looking at my Christmas blog (short for weblog, or online diary) , which allows me to be way more creative with layout, colours, photos etc, and avoid all those nasty lifeforce-sapping queues at the post office! Its packed full of healthy tips on living, great low carb recipes and....wait that would be "Woman's Day" - my blog is instead full of all sorts of thrilling and exciting (in my own addled mind anyway!) raving about my life and hopefully it will fill you in on what's being going in a life, that may seem a tad banal at times, but is always on its way somewhere, not standing still for anyone.

So I hope this finds you loving life, making the most of it, and ready to enjoy a sensationally enriching, tinsel-covered, relationship-affirming Christmas, and an amazing one-of-a-kind 2006, when hopefully many of your fondest dreams do in fact come true!
