Throw away your cares everybody, it’s New Year’s Day here in Australia 🇦🇺! Of course it has been New Year’s Day for two hours already in En Zed they see the new day first in the world, we see it second (in the world).
What ever your hopes and dreams, wishes and aspirations, may they come to fulfilment in 2023. Bonne Année. Feliz Año Nuevo. Athbhliain faoi mhaise daoibh. Frohes Neues Jahr. Feliz Ano Novo. Sanad wanaagsan. Buon anno. Gelukkige Nuwejaar. Kia hari te tau hou. 新年快乐 - pronounced: xīn nián kuài lè

Let it bring Joy, Ruth, and other girls names that mean nice stuff.
We have got a bit more 2022 to suffer.
What's life like on the other side?

Happy new year to all and may it be better than the majority of 2022. Slow.. so far so good. I'm upright after 4 days of shuffling round using a walking stick so that's a good start. Breakfast was tasty so that's another good thing and the sun's shining.

Life on the other side is pretty good. It is a surprise the few times I see a mask wearing person, it just doesn’t happen here. At least not in my bailiwick. Plenty of locals setting off firecrackers last night, poked my head outside, very pretty some of them. Left a get together/party early as the weather was hot and muggy. Stayed that way long into the wee hours today. Expecting 36° today - that’s 36° C

Let it bring Joy, Ruth, and other girls names that mean nice stuff. that reminds me of my favourite Christmas story. My mother's first cousins were 3 sisters, named Ruth, Grace, and Isla. Not sure how old Isla was before she stopped feeling hurt that God ("He") "rules the earth, with Ruth And Grace". And there's no mention of Isla at all.

I spent New Year's Eve alone (in Germany) and minded it not one bit. One daughter was in Turkey and the other one was out with friends. Mrs M was in the south of Germany with her mother who is in hospital after having a fairly major stroke recently. Fireworks were going off until about 2am and I had a nice view of them. On the 1st I got up around 6am, drove north an hour and a half to pick up one daughter and then drive virtually the same route back to my starting point to then drive south a further five hours to pick up Mrs M. We stayed in a hotel and on the 2nd, drove eight hours to get to Slovenia.
Spent the night in Slovenia, the next morning I had a few hours worth of work to do to the apartment we have there to get it ready for tenants, plus we had to visit a couple of offices to sign and sort out legal matters. Late afternoon we drove through Croatia to spend the night a little over the border into Bosnia, in Banja Luka. This morning as another early(ish) start to get back to Sarajevo for 11am for Mrs M to be dropped off at her work for meetings etc. Whilst we have been driving she's had online conferences she's attended and I've enjoyed listening to her work voice and listening to other people being told off.....
Now back at "home" sorting out washing and trying to find something for dinner in the freezer.
