So very tired. Life continues complicated. I like real people more than content spouters. God, I sound like a complete plum.
I made a resolution for the year, to notice sunsets each day. The beauty of the light changing, colours and so on.
I have discovered that sunsets where I am, are white/grey skies going blue, followed by darkness. Not a red, yellow, orange or pink to be seen.
This is why resolutions are a bad idea.

I don’t want to alarm anyone, but I found some new jelly babies.
I am now 150% jelly baby. Oopsie.
In my 20s i thought i was soo sophisticated, because I liked dark chocolate, black coffee and various other things like certain films and music. I am much older now, and I still prefer dark chocolate and black coffee - but it all falls apart if you present me with a packet of jelly babies.

I was so cross for Ura! We have only just got by the November photos of the top of Ono’s foot on the clay against Aonishki, and then this happens. I love Onosato, but come on - acknowledge the man loses sometimes… it undermines him to constantly be said as ‘winning’ when he has lost.
Did Onosato receive special accommodation in his first bout with Ura?
Here's the story:
In their initial match, Ura attacked Onosato and followed up with an ashitori (leg grab), knocking the yokozuna off his feet and onto his hands.
Replays show both of Onosato's hands on the clay ...

Just learned that clam chowder is not a thing. Clam chowder it turns out, is many things (no doubt all of which can be tasty). Let the (non USA or otherwise clam-experienced diner) buyer beware. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clam_ch...

Family nagged me for years to get hearing aids. Finally gave in and have spent the last two days oiling every creaky door in the house. Oh, and those silent but deadly farts I've been dropping out everywhere I go; they're high pitched squeakers.

Im sorry these images made it look like a Wes Anderson scene where they knock down the town hall only to reveal a smaller one inside
Masterton Town Hall - 2022 and a couple of days ago. Demolished due to earthquake risk.

Ok, but that also sounds like the set up for a joke. Me and my buddies; shawl, huge blanket and hot water bottle…

Freezing icy fog rolling in from the marshes tonight. The ground is all crystal silver with a heavy frost, and the air is a sort of shimmery grey/white where the fog and nighttime are mixing together in the street lights. Very pretty.

Just brushed my teeth with a new toothbrush. Forget New Year, new start - it’s broke, old fashioned and bound to failure.
This here, shiny blue and white toothbrush, is the fresh new start we all seek. Only winning is possible from now on.

Sitting here the outside temp is -4°C. I just pointed the temperature gun thing, (some of you might call it a thermometer, so dull), at the room and it said 2°C. I then pointed it at our little fire, and no word of a lie-the batteries popped out like they couldn’t handle it. The INFERNO!
