In Between Days

Saturday. New Year's Eve.

Work. 

Slow to start with, then by 9.30ish it was as busy as it had been before Christmas, a lot of people didn't know we were open New Year's day, or that we were open until nine pm that evening. 

Anyhow we got out and got both buses fairly easily. 

We got home and got changed Kev did some Indian snacks, and we had some bucks fizz. We watched Batman the new one with Robert Patterson in it. Very good, but very dark. If you think the Tim Burton one is dark this is darker. 

We saw in the new year and then went to bed. 

We slept like logs and only woke up at 5 am because a noise woke us. It sounded like the front door handle had been tried. After some investigation Kev found it was my oodie had fallen along with the hook on the bedroom door, that would account for the door handle noise as it would catch that on the way down. 

You just never know chancers trying door handles to see if they are open was a common problem when we lived at Gedling Road. At least here we have chains on and with it being so quiet most of the time they'd get spotted. Let's face it nothing gets past the nosy gits we live next to. 

Sunday. New Year's day.

Lovely not to be at work on a Sunday together. I had a shower and put fresh pj's on and we settled down to a quiet day, I did my pages, and played with more new stuff we started the year quietly. I've not made any resolutions. They don't work for me. As I never stick to them and there's not much I want to change. I can't change who I am as I'm too set in my ways. I can try and be kinder, but also know when I'm being played. There are a couple of people who misinterpret my kindness for weakness. Or lie thinking I buy it, I don't but I don't call them out anymore. I can't be arsed. I just let them get on with it and allow them to think I'm aware of nothing. You don't always have to show you're hand. You don't always have to defend yourself. Let people believe what they like about you. Let them think they know you. It's taken me a long time to figure that out. Just be you, the world will adapt. They'll judge you in any case give them something to judge you for.
