Happy New Year!
Jan. 1st, 2008 04:33 pm... and apologies to
prettyannamoon,
sannalim,
stereo_m and
awelkin. I was very busy in the run up to our trip to Germany - as a result, I didn't manage to make it to the post office in time. You'll get your parcels / letters some time in January; I'll post them on Saturday, which is my usual day for Post Office runs.
I hope all of you had a relaxing festive season. We certainly did - spent 10 days of quality time in Germany, where I did NO work WHATSOEVER (yay!). On the other hand, I'm now looking at a very stressful two months before I go on Maternity Leave. I don't know whether I already mentioned it, but two (groups of) people I work with are/were a couple of months behind with data that I need for analysis and writing up. If you're working to as tight a deadline as I am, with as little wriggle room as I have, that's Not Good News (TM). Plus, I wasn't too well for most of December, but that seems to have passed (thankfully). My husband is an absolute star and does a lot of child care, while I do housework / work-work or try to recover from the latest stupid cold.
Roll on 2008!
