Merry Christmas, Happy New Year, Finally!

Sorry, that was a long break but I kept very busy and it was well-needed after last year.
During my absence I:
- screen-printed my own wrapping paper
- said goodbye to a good friend
- went home for Christmas
- flew to Australia and spent a wonderfully hot week on the Gold Coast
- rang in the New Year
- flew home and caught up on a months worth of washing
- finally got to do a little bit of crafting.

I'm exhausted and ready for a holiday. Oh wait, I had the holiday and start back at work tomorrow. Oh well, maybe next year!
So a very belated Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you all. I hope you had a relaxing break!
