Not much left of 2018 here - and the neighbours have started with their fireworks.
I usually work through Christmas and New Year. Have to get up at 3 am tomorrow. I only have to take care of the most basic chores though, so maybe we will be driving home (back to bed) by the time of the first sunrise of 2019.
Have put the madrasses in the hall for us all to sleep on. The dog is not too happy about the fireworks. Luckily, this far out in the countryside there is not much of it. Only one neighbour with teenagers are setting off fireworks tonight - and it's so foggy we can hardly see anything, and the sounds are muffled.
Went to bed a couple of hours ago, but haven't slept much; tossing and turning, aching muscles and joints and bad dreams. Hope it's not a taste of what's to come in 2019. Am sitting with a hot drink (non-alcoholic ginger-tumeric-lemon-honey) and Seal on the stereo. When we get a little closer to midnight I will serve the cats some fresh duck (roadkill from this morning) and for the dog I have 1/4 rabbit. Counting on that to bring them happily munching through the first hour of the new year. And if we could then (please!) have a bit of restful sleep before we have to get back up again.
May you all arrive into Tuesday, 2019 safely and as festively as you wish.
