Happy New Year! Before Britain and the British colonies officially switched over to the Gregorian Calendar in 1752, March 25th was considered to be the first day of the new year!
For me, this past week has been one of adjustment. Whenever I return from a vacation, I spend about a week alternatively feeling either extremely cranky or else like I’m in a walking dream. It takes a while to get used to being back home. All said, I spent most of this week wishing I was in Ardglass.
That said, I still manged to get caught up on all of the TV that I missed while I was gone and I was able to watch a few new movies. Now, I just have to get caught up with reviewing everything!
