Happy New Year (again...)

It's come again! A new year. In fact, a new decade.

But anyway, the point of the post.... I'm going to America in 9 days! Eek! This time last year it was just something that I'd been told was possible, and was thinking about. Now, I've got flights booked, I know where I'm staying and pretty much just need to pack. I'm just waiting now.

I'm planning to actually update here more often now I'll have things to talk about, whether I remember and/or get round to it is a different matter entirely.


This time last year, I posted a blog. A snippet from said post:


So what do I envision for this new year? No resolutions... I've decided to go in with a new approach - 'Do It'... 
...I'm going to learn things about myself, about my friends, and about the world. And then I'm going to see if I'm a different person this time next year.


And now here I am. 9 days away from a life changing experience. I didn't even question the logistics, the details, the work involved. I knew from the moment we were told we could, that I would be doing it. And I couldn't be happier.
