Well, it's 2007 - in case nobody noticed.

We (my elder sister, BIL, and their cutey) got back to Brisbane at 3.30 am on Sunday morning after starting our journey at the south coast of NSW at 9am the previous morning... A long drive. We went the coastal route (Pacific Highway), which was remarkably good - there were few cars on the road. So we had a good run.

The week down the coast was pretty good... a pretty good break. Maybe some more details and photos later.

The few days before that were in Canberra. It was a bit weird to go to dad's crematorium and pick up his ashes, and to see where there will be a spot for him...

On the Thursday morning (day after I arrived), I started my Christmas shopping. Something to be said for leaving it too the last minute putting the pressure on. Anyway. In that evening it was good to catchup with an old friend.

So, what's in store for 2007? A move at work in a month or two; being more organised and disciplined - giving jobs their correct priority; lots of people tasting my culinary wares; perhaps a big purchase in April / May; starting to learn the saxophone; continuing clarinet playing in my bands - maybe an increased role in one of them; sorting out my spiritual issues; and who knows what else??

But I hope that 2007 will be a better year than 2006.
