Happy New Year Mandy! I love this post and your previous Christmas post. I went into hospital Christmas Eve at 11.30pm and was trasferred to another one early AM Christmas day where I had my leaky appendix removed!!! Came home on the 6th back in on the 27th and hopefully now I'm home for good!! Not the way I wanted to spend the holidays!
