Hello lovely girls,
A very happy New Year to you! Looking back I have had a very good year. As you know I lost my husband two years ago. I took me all of 2023 to grieve and to adjust to living on my own. The year 2024 I can say that I got used to it and have found new happiness within me. I can honestly say I am now enjoying life again.
Let me show you my postcard:
Especially for those in the UK this is very true. This card comes to me from someone called Lidwina in Germany. She writes she has toured through Andalusia some years ago.
The stamps is the usual stamp from the baby animals series:
Baby goats (kids) in this case.
The past week has been really weird. Boxing Day in Spain is a normal working day and, like many people, I lost count of what day it was. But New Year's Eve arrived, and I chose to stay at home (I'm not much of a party animal). I had a bottle of Prosecco in the fridge and I had the heating on, and watched tv in a special cuddle-up-on-the-sofa garment:
I asked Dian next door if she wanted to come and help me drink it, so together we welcomed the New Year in.
Of course I had the BBC on and they have midnight when it's 1 a.m. here, so we nearly missed it. We toasted at 4 minutes past midnight. (but hey, it doesn't matter).
I managed to finish my advent jigsaw puzzle on New Year's Eve:
24 little puzzles in 24 individual little boxes:
I'm going to un-do it and put it away for next year. I really enjoyed it, and will do it again.
That's it from me today, apart from some funnies at the end.
Wishing you all a very happy and healthy 2025!
Hugs,
Lisca
PS, Did anyone in the UK see that documentary about the Year 2024 from Space on Ch4? There you can see the northern lights from space. Spectacular!
