2011, the year that was … harder than we expected.
It’s been a long time between blogs and I’m sorry about that. 2011 didn’t end up being the year that I’d hoped. For one, studying and working full-time was much harder than I expected. It made me extremely conscious of how much time I must normally waste. On top of that stress, we lost Wilhemina, Norman and, just a few days short of 2012, we lost Chuck Norris too. We almost lost Otto Macduff to a tick just before Christmas and had to watch Chester suffer on his own for the week Otto was at the vets. We had our share of illnesses and personal ups and downs. We ate more than our normal quota of takeaway and for a while cooking was just a necessity.
