Thoughts on Mid-January

Hands up if you're already seriously concerned at the rapid speed that 2012 is taking. {In case you haven't already realized, my hand is up, way up high.} It feels like I only arrived in Brisbane days ago, yet I've managed three months there and am now on my last stretch in Sydney before I depart for London in two weeks time. I think it might have something to do with absence making the heart grow fonder, although I can't say I ever heard of absence making time go faster.

So far, in January, I have:

- Celebrated a birthday

- Visited a Theme Park

- Travelled over 900km in a car

- Had a hair cut

- Stressed out about how to get everything packed and back to London

- Participated in Chantelle's January Photo-a-Day challenge

- Learned some new things about Photoshop

- Spent far too much time playing The Sims 3 and not enough time doing more important things

- Seen my Sisters {in-law}

- Watched a whole season of Ally McBeal

- Cried

- Laughed

- Loved

Phew! I think I need a break after reading that list and I've still got two family birthdays, a flight back to London & a reunion with the crew I've not seen in months to keep me occupied in January. I'm pretty sure I need to squeeze in therapy appointments, job interviews & exercise somewhere there too.

Lucky for me there's no lack of caffeine in my Grandmother's kitchen.
