Is it insomnia when it’s 4 in the morning and you still haven’t gone to bed because you’re not actually tired? Or is insomnia when you are actually really very tired but just cannot fall asleep? Or both?
Yes, it’s 4 am January 1st 2009 and surprisingly the reason I am still awake is not due to continual New Year partaying but some other inexplicable reason.
My poor family – they will have a grumpy woman to contend with in the morning, especially if we experience the NEAR BOILING heat we were subjected to today. 38 degrees (that’s Celcius, not Farenheit in case you were wondering). Tired and hot – the perfect way to start the day.
2008 has treated us well, by the grace of God.
I won’t say I’m a better mother but I am a lot more aware of how my reactions affect my children. I am trying very hard to make that deeper connection with them (not always successful I am afraid as there are days where I would rather run away that get close to them.)
How was 2008 for you and what are you looking forward to for 2009?

Hey, nice to see the upbeat new template!
Have a great 2009 as well and of the two things you mentioned… the latter is insomnia.
Merry New Year to you! Aren’t you the rager? I went to bed at 9:30pm, and felt really happy about it. I guess 2009 is bringing in my senility. *NB* was just calling to say ‘hi’ and ‘salams’ and ‘let’s go eat more yum leb food at that restaurant with the crappy service again this year’.
2009, will you go out with me? Tick the box: YES [ ] NO [ ] MAYBE [ ]
PS My best friend thinks you’re cute
PPS Mrs Symes smells
PPPS Destroy this note after reading!!!!
Happy new year to you.
Specs – thanks! I love it too and surprisingly it has husband’s approval too (he is very fussy when it comes to Bond Girls and blog templates). Happy New Year to you
susan- I am SOOO much the rager that in my fit of insomnia or sleeplessness I managed to clean the bathroom.
HAHAH! 2009, Will you meet me near the girls’ toilets in F block?
Haleem – Happy New Year to you too
Happy New Year 1430 and 2009.
I hope I lose weight this year…..
