I am definitely feeling bluesy this second of January but that is mostly because it has just been so nice being with everyone over Christmas. Even though it sometimes meant clearing up poo or having a very very smelly dog all was good. H and R excelled themselves with food from the first night Christmas Eve, Eve, party to the final get together. H also had games for us and in between we all went to the panto, most went to the light show, I went to the cinema with N, N and R for my first in cinema experience of anime. And N and I went up to Lindisfarne and Bamburgh Castle our last day together. Bliss. And then amazingly a good train journey despite the badish weather predictions and onto Maylandsea for a great couple of days watching good movies including Killers of the Flower Moon, having a few drinks and laughs and walks. Lovely.

Sadly and terribly ironic really, Christmas was cancelled in Bethlehem this year. And now Japan is struggling with yet another earthquake. We never know when we will go. J has hung on till Christmas and is if anything better than before, but over Christmas another art club member died and tragically so did a young friend. It is against such sadness that the joys are to be so grateful for.
