HAPPY NEW YEAR!!! (by sarah)
It is the shiny new beginning of 2008 and we are hoping (desperatly) that it is going to be a bit better than 2007 and that we will soon be back in our own home with a shiny new kitchen and nice effective flood defenses etc...
For 2008 i am hoping to loose the last 2 stone of the pregnancy weight (I doubled in weight actually doubled during the pregnancy which wasnt good), we have budgeted in gym membership for me as I need to up my aerobic excersise. your probably all wondering why I dont just do some gardening or somehting but my joints etc... are unstable and I have to be very careful - loading the joints is bad so gentle swims are good digging wholes bad. I will also be starting physio therapy again so that I have some direction inwhat excersises are good for me and which ones will cripple me.
I also hope to actually star a hobby I've been dreaming off and trying half heartedly to do for a few years - I've been interested in it every since my dad carried me into my nans garden when I was a toddler to show me a lunar eclipse. During my GSCE's there was Hale Bop which had me late in to physics as I'd gone round my uncles to look through his telescope the night before.
I've also been reading Astronomy Now off and on since I was working at the museum on meteorites - I cant right now get back to those pieces of sky rock so I will be attempting to consol myself with star gazing. Our binoculars where distroyed in the flood unfortunatly and I dont have the money to buy any equipement at the moment but my bro has lent me his ickle telescope which I am looking forward to actually using. 2008 is going to be a year of astronomy for me 🙂
I shall also be consolidating my webstuff into a proper business of its own. I will have servers and we have nominet registration and as purple cloud is no longer James I can quite happily become a comercial ISP without competing with my friend. We will be doing hosting and domain registration I will also be building websites and setting up blogs, mailing lists and forums for people. I've had a few customers so far so am confident that if I actually advertise and stuff there should be a nice organic growth.
You may have noticed that since the flood the other blogs - Salaric and wigglypets have been a bit neglected - I hope to remedy this asap. So 2008 is also going to be the year of the pooter for Sarah.
Who knows I might even get that noval typed up and published 🙂
Here's hoping every body had a great night last night and an even better year to come!
HAPPY NEW YEAR from the family Snell-Pym 🙂
