    We have booked out a property down at Rosebud for a week from January 11th just to really reflect on the year that was and map out a bucket list for 2016.

    2015 was a year that I will be glad to see the back of..the old saying "what doesn't kill you makes you stronger" is my personal take out of the year.

    Going down south to Batesman bay with friends and our dogs. Oz style Xmas where I will be making sand snowman. Then maybe see if we can plan our move to a different state further

    Moving to Melbourne while keeping the Sydney place. If we are living in Australia, I think we should live in a house for once o_O Lived in Sydney for 10 years already so a change of pace will be interesting.

    Keeping the Sydney place, just in case I totally dislike Melbourne and run back to Sydney with tails between my legs.:rolleyes:

    Short trip to Port Arlington after Xmas, a few games of golf, spend time with my kids, and generally trying to avoid any contact with humans as much as possible.

    Bahaha!
    I nearly had a meltdown on the weekend doing early Christmas shopping! So many angry people in the shops! No way I'm going back, the festive season isn't so festive with crazed shoppers blowing their cash on crap!

    We are getting the house ready to take off travelling. Still decluttering and fixing the backyard. Planning on big family time. We will have Christmas a week late, when everyone arrives. Getting to know my new grandson (born on Saturday) and spending lots of time with the other youngest grandson who will be down from Alice Springs (and having his 1st birthday).
    I'm hoping to duck over to Bali for a week end January.

    Sana you should read- Quiet- The power of Introverts in a World That Can't Stop Talking- Susan Cain. She has a Ted Talk video which is great. The book of course is a lot more detailed and has studies etc which are very interesting. I love psychology stuff and loved it. I will read it again.

    It's not just for Introverts. There are studies on how people are influenced in groups by people that are vocal, even when what they are saying makes no sense. And about group dynamics. It's very interesting reading. I think it should be mandatory reading for everyone, especially those in managerial roles.

    We're having a Christmas away from the parents and grandparents! Should be nice, quiet and relaxing!! Post a few pressies and done.

    Probably head down to Albany or Margaret River for some camping and beach fun in the sun!
