Holidays are over

I have been neglecting my blog for the last couple of weeks. Put simply I haven’t really done anything of note to speak about. We had a very quiet Christmas. Had a long chat with my aunt and uncle in Spain where they were celebrating with friends in 18C temps – we had 18C too, but with a minus in front!

TV at Christmas was really crap, so we rented several films from Blockbuster to keep us going. One we thought was really good was Eagle Eye. I also bought several games for my Nintendo Wii and have been playing those quite a bit, certainly more than I would normally play on the Wii. I tend to play on Sunday’s whilst hubby is watching football – trouble is the season is coming to an end soon, so my Wii hours may be reduced! I really like one game that I bought almost by accident – Zack & Wikki. One of the stores I found another game in had an offer of 2 for $40 so I got this game and it is really good. I also really love Rayman Raving Rabbits – it is hilarious.

So that is what I have been doing over the holiday period – playing games and watching films.

Some snowy pics.

Big chunks of snow

We are seeing the first snowfall of the season to hit our house. We have seen other snowfall when traveling but this is up close and personal. It started off this morning as very fine snow but the flakes are getting bigger and chunkier now. Hopefully it will not settle although it is cold enough.

Oh well, just have to accept that winter is on its way.

I spoke to my aunt and uncle in Spain yesterday as it was his birthday and they are having brilliant weather at the moment. Hot, dry and sunny, but not too hot. They said we should go over – if only it was that simple! One day hopefully we will get back there, but it won’t be anytime soon.
