What a relief to wake up and find out the world hasn't ended. I had gotten a little confused and was a day behind everyone else wondering why everyone was wishing everyone a happy new year a day early. When the fire crackers went off at midnight I vaguely remember thinking they were quite keen letting them off one night early and they should save some for new years. How awful it would have been had the world really ended, and I was out by a day. There would be the smoking ruins of the apocalypse and me saying "but its still December isn't it?" Perhaps somewhere it still is.
So in celebration of surviving yet another end to the world I was asked if I had any new years resolutions (may as well plan since we have another year now). I thought this was fairly short notice, although I suppose the more organised people out there (i.e the people who actually managed to get their Christmas cards out in the same month as Christmas) probably had them all prepared in case the world didn't end. Of course I didn't prepare, heck I thought I still had another day (and I still have the Christmas cards all ready to go- just need to get them out of the box, although hang on its January now isn't it...), so all I could think of was possibly being more proactive in getting the lawns mown before they out grow the fence and the dogs get lost the moment they step of the back verandah.
Ah yes, to be more organised. 2012 will certainly be another year, but not as we know it...
