Well I think the last couple of days my mind has been overly active - at least more than usual - and I was kind of 'wound up' and things were going through my head at a real rate of knots.
Yesterday I spent the day on the computer trying to sort out some information for DIL's family tree. I did get quite a bit done though for which I was pleased. Today the morning was fairly quiet with watering the garden and grocery shopping but after lunch DH and I decided to go to the movies. I had library books to return as well so we got seat bookings online to go to "The Iron Lady" which I've been wanting to see since I heard it was being released. I really enjoyed it - and Meryl Streep's acting was superb as one would expect. I love her movies - she is so skilled. We talked about the movie later in the day, and about Margaret Thatcher, where she lives now and how old she is and of course my mind stayed pretty well active until bedtime. But despite doing a little reading to relax, sleep has evaded me again tonight.
So after a warm drink I'm planning to head back to bed and hope I can drift off to sleep this time.
Tomorrow is the last day of 2011. It's hard to believe, the last week has just zipped by so quickly - I guess that's what happens when DH is home from work between Christmas and New Year break. Looking forward to seeing the wonderful fireworks display tomorrow night to mark the end of the year and the beginning of 2012. Hopefully will stay up and see the 9pm show but it's debatable whether I last the distance for the midnight extravaganza. We won't be heading off into the city to see it live - it's pretty good to watch on the television! Sydney is well renowned throughout the world for its New Year's Eve fireworks display and I have no doubt tomorrow night's will live up to expectations.
Happy New Year everyone - and blessings in abundance through 2012!
