And, wow,great news....huge congratulations. :) Have heard great things about Ty Newydd - good luck with that. <br /><br />Frankie; love the idea but it's not a radiator - it's a small boxy fan heater...so they'd have to get sticks and poke the food through the holes. Actually, having said that.... *goes to check*<br /><br />Legend; Thank you so much... :)<br /><br />Bear: hope things look better after your hibernation. I know you can get the lows... :(<br /><br />BM: A very Happy Christmas, my dear friend...Yes, do hope we can meet soon.<br /><br />Tattie: get ordering! You would love them! <br /><br />Toady: oh no, not you too... :( Sending huge good 2011 vibes down the link road!... :)<br /><br />Posie: ah but you're being very energetic, rescuing footballs and so on! Happy Christmas, up in the far far north... :)Exmoorjanehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09230395732150659356noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4677133322409652783.post-56110765783059178172010-12-22T08:09:04.457-11:002010-12-22T08:09:04.457-11:00You make it all sound sooo heavenly Jane, I could ...You make it all sound sooo heavenly Jane, I could do the face cream, defo, but am completely rubbish at remembering body creams etc, and then the yoga..yep think that should be on the resolutions list...it makes me feel so good and yet it tends to come bottom of the priority list. Am very impressed at you managing to eat well at this time of year, that is definitely slipping here...as crisps and trifle and chocolate log and all the yummy Christmas things are taking over...<br />Have a fab Christmas, PosiePosiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12844732200803572416noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4677133322409652783.post-66194103238365379592010-12-22T05:12:08.857-11:002010-12-22T05:12:08.857-11:00Bring it on!!

I used to have a dog that would hide pizza crust behind doors. I can only assume he was stockpiling it for the advent of Zombie Armageddon and the end of pizza delivery as we know it.Fhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02011180576782676523noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4677133322409652783.post-85084329265431091922010-12-21T06:24:36.736-11:002010-12-21T06:24:36.736-11:00Sadly, I missed the eclipse too.
Have good Christ...Sadly, I missed the eclipse too.<br /><br />Have good Christmas; I have enjoyed your blog this year - I usually read even if I don't always comment.<br /><br />And good luck with the novel. <br /><br />PS I've had some good news with my writing. I've been working on a book about fatherhood on landscape, and amazingly have a publisher interested; and I've also been asked to run a course on blogging for writers at the Ty Newydd writing centre in Wales. Scary.<br /><br />Mark's latest post is Moments of Transcendence <br /><br />http://viewsfromthebikeshed.blogspot.com/2010/12/moments-of-transcendence.htmlThe bike shedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05195882998271591934noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4677133322409652783.post-18676380078601682952010-12-21T06:22:53.682-11:002010-12-21T06:22:53.682-11:00Frankie: Bad Frankie!

Hugging is good juju...<br /><br />And yeah, laughing is the right and only response to my dog-meat heater.<br /><br />Crystal: Isn't the energy of it AMAZING? Yup, it;s gonna be a mega year next year. Make a big wish for your writing tonight! :)Exmoorjanehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09230395732150659356noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4677133322409652783.post-10426124458180705792010-12-21T05:18:07.112-11:002010-12-21T05:18:07.112-11:00I was up at ten to two this morning and was so tir...I was up at ten to two this morning and was so tired I fell asleep again. I really wanted to see the lunar eclipse live, it would have been magical. Out with the old, in with the new; something I'm trying to do with my writing. Hoping my methods will pay off next year!<br /><br />CJ xxAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4677133322409652783.post-24688746009980587382010-12-21T04:37:46.376-11:002010-12-21T04:37:46.376-11:00Now I'm thinking I probably I shouldn't ha...Now I'm thinking I probably I shouldn't have had potato chips, gingerbread cookies, and clementines for lunch today. I did drink water, but only because I didn't have any cola handy. At least the clementines will prevent scurvy. <br /><br />Sounds idyllic. So easy to forget to take care of one's self. Not even forget, just postpone it. Until after the shopping is done and the laundry is folded and the dishes are washed and the cat box is changed and...<br /><br />Sometimes you just need the reminder. <br /><br />I think this afternoon I will light some candles and listen to some music and hug someone I love. It's the darkest day of the year, after all, and somehow that makes it seem a little more important to keep the night at bay. <br /><br />And I'm sorry I laughed at your dog food radiator.Fhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02011180576782676523noreply@blogger.com
