We have had a very quiet New Year - we dont tend to go out to celebrate it anyway, but poor Jay had "man flu" - and to be honest he is very rarely ill and the poor bunny was really suffering - we were all in bed before midnight and being in a very quiet spot in East Sussex the silence was shattered at midnight by some neighbours setting off some fireworks - when I say neighbours they were from across the railway and over a field - but it may as well have been outside the window as it is normally so quiet!! could i get back to sleep? - no... so I ended up coming back downstairs and watching an Arnold Swarz -im ijig film until about 2AM!!
Sadly when I got up in the morning I found our beautiful red Oranda fish - Miranda had turned up her fins overnight - I was very sad as she was the first pet Jay and I bought together - and yes, all our fish do have names..........
Danielle stayed in with us last night - I think she was quite relieved to have decided to stay in - the weather was absolutely foul - high winds and rain - it was so bad at one point we had more smoke coming down the chimney into the lounge than was going up it!! Needless to say we let the fire die down.
I had some nice news last week - I applied for two things in work before Christmas - a position on the management training programme, and also to train as a Medical Underwriter - I wasnt succesful with the management programme but have been offered the underwriters position - so I am just waiting for a release date from my current team - I am really scared!!!!!! I love my team to bits and we have such good fun - but the actual work side of the job was really getting me down, so I think it will be a positive move.
Zoe and Madison are doing well - Madison spent her first new year with Zoe and some of Andy's family - Andy went to the pub - understandably Zoe didnt want to leave her gorgeous girlie. Amy and Mark went to there local, poor Amy has one of her sore throats, so she didnt feel like celebrating much.
This is Danielle and Maddie just before Christmas - both flat out - seem to enjoy sleeping!!! I am sure in future they will shop and drop together!!!!
