A New Year's Post
Jan. 1st, 2007 11:52 amThis is quite a short New Year's post, for I find myself non-communicative and oddly obsessed with putting up shelves*
My New Year's Eve was small, comfortable, warm and surprisingly sane for me. I'm prone to wibbles on New Year's Eve, and this year the worst that happened was I went for a wander around a graveyard with
sea_cucumber, and then went home early because
pierot was really rather poorly. Even then we stayed til just before 1 am! I therefore thank
adze very very sincerely for being a fantastic host and holding a very lovely gathering.
My 2006 has, I think, been a successful year overall. I come out of it with an MPhil in European Archaeology, two healthy and rather contented cats, a new house, a college course I love, and a boyfriend I love even more. There have been ups and downs, and I've lost some people and gained others along the way, but overall I think I've done well.
I said last year that I wanted this...

...to be my card for 2006 and I think it was. It was a year of working away, of not being glamorous, but I think of stabilising and becoming a lot happier.
For 2007? What do I hope for?
Nothing very dramatic I think. I think to keep building from what I've got. I'd like to get fitter and healthier. I'd like to do well with my conservation, maybe moving into map conservation. I'd like to get my house sorted. Lots of solid, focussed, grown up things. Maybe I won't and it'll all go to pieces, but right now I'm feeling optimistic enough to offer up this...

...as the card with all my hopes for 2007.
*This makes sense if you've got the number of books piled against walls that I have in my house.
