The start of the final week of work before Christmas, and what a delightful start with the morning session. They really are a lovely bunch. I came out of the session with a big smile on my face. In the afternoon, I prepared a large vegetarian curry to go towards the Christmas party in the evening. It's the first one I have been to in three years, and I spent the day rather looking forward to it. I tend not to enjoy Christmas parties too much, which is probably a throw back to the big build up to Christmas when I was younger and the ultimate let down of it all. I also miss our friends from the group who have moved away, and no matter how nice the people are, it's still not the same. I am coming across as someone who cannot cope with change aren't i? :-) The other thing that plays on my mind was the phone call I received yesterday from my Aunt. After all the abuse etc that I received a few weeks back for trying to help, she phoned me out of the blue to ask if she could send money to the girls. I said no. She rather tersely said goodbye and hung up, and as usual, I feel guilty. I just cannot bear the ups and downs that I get with her, and it seems to me that I only get a call when I am needed. Anyway, in the event, the evening was very enjoyable, and it all passed with no incident, and a rather nice warm feeling.
