A puzzle for you.....

There are three facial profiles in this image.... the image is from the France of Napoleon..... one profile is Napoleon, the second is his son and the third is Napoleon's wife Josephine.

 I've been very quiet for too long .....  it's an emotional response to our current financial woes .... if I keep quiet and don't talk to anyone, it will all go away.  Of course, the situation will return to normal in time but it's hard to cope while waiting.  

As usual, Kaylia is shielded from this .... all her normal supports are continuing and she is very happy.  Sometimes it seems as if she is deliriously happy!  She can be highly vocal with her "happy noises".

 New Year's eve ....  Best wishes to you all for 2025

At the moment we are at an all time low so the new year will be much better for us.  We're selling stuff to get through the business end of year close down.  I've already sold my trailer and hopefully the car will be sold in the next few days.    Kaylia is unaffected by this .... she is focussed on having four new calendars on New Year's Day.

Christmas morning.....  WHO SET THE ALARM!

We were awakened much earlier than anticipated...,.. a decent sleep-in was planned.  The puzzle now is who set the alarm?  Naomi?...... Nooooo.   Me?..... Nooooo!  It only leaves Kaylia.  She is fixated on opening her presents ..... so it means that she has worked out how to set the alarm.  She is familiar with the clock as a timer so she has investigated the other functions of the clock on her iPad.   I'm impressed.

We head down to cooler weather in Busselton tomorrow.

Happy Christmas.

This is the Christmas letter which I recently circulated. I hope it is legible.

Kaylia is off with Jenny today ... Jenny is a carer who provides us with respite under the NDIS.

Several people have commented on the health issues .... it's funny ... these issues don't seem to be such a great problem to us ..... but I guess that could be because the issues are constantly with us.  I am much more concerned with the chronic pain in my right wrist.  I've already had as much treatment for the problem as I'm prepared to do .... so I just have to live with the pain.  (Any further surgery on the wrist would be a repeat of the nightmarish surgery in 2011 .... so no way!)

I'm much more conscious of the lingering effects of the childhood abuse ..... for instance it is difficult to make and maintain friendships.  I'd like to meet up with fellow Landrover nuts .... I have contact details for several "nuts" .... but I can't get myself to make the move!
