December Happiness

Five things which have made me smile this month...
 
 
 
1. A free ride on the beautiful vintage set of gallopers in the centre of Bath.

2. Each morning before we go to work, when Andrew is scraping the ice from the car, I'm sat in the passenger seat and I peer out through the window at him. He jumps back in some pretence of being shocked and suprised - it never fails to make me laugh!


3. This picture. Me and my two best girlies being completely silly in a photo booth in between looking after our students at their graduation ceremony.

4. Finally being given the go ahead to start IVF treatment in the new year and leaving the clinic clutching a bag of various drugs. This has also made me feel scared, excited, numb, delighted, nervous and every other emotion in between.

5. Reaching 20,000 visitors by the end of 2013. When I started this little piece of the internet, I never in a million years imagined that I'd have even 10 people who'd be interested in my life. I'm guessing that about 10,000 of them were myself and another 5000 my friend M but if you were one of those lovely visitors, then I'd like to thank you very very much! You've made one little duck smile rather a lot :-)

 
 
Happy New Year!
