Lovely quiet christmas week

It's been a very delightful few days here with number two - who is now safely back in Melbourne to party on and also move flats I believe, one suburb over and a slightly more lively house. We didn't seem to do much during the visit; just one trip back into Canberra to see friends and also briefly hit up the Braidwood shops (doesn't take long).

Christmas day itself involved a few presents, a bit of food, quite a few drinks, the new Knives Out for entertainment and reading many books. As a freelancer? hustler? person-trying-to-make-a-living-in-theatre? number two can work from anywhere any time, and took a few calls and spent some time on email shopping scripts and making connections. I think, I don't really understand how it all works. Sounds fascinating ... and there was still time to make the christmas pav. Perfection.

Number one is having a lovely time in Europe - we had a video call from Lubeck where they spent Christmas - and photos of selected highlights across Paris, the Hague, Hamburg... (museum d'aerospace! the ICJ! minatur wunderland! everyone has their own highlights :))

    I put away all the Christmas decorations, placemats, etc and we are back to what passes for "normal" here--Taking a well-needed rest....hugs, Julierose

  2. Is Europe not a bit chilly at this time of year?? My husband and grandson loved Minatur Wunderland! I... well, it had a nice cafe. Happy New Year when it comes!
