A much-needed holiday

We've had a year that in many respects we want to forget. We've worked too many hours to be healthy, we've had a number of issues which have sucked the life-blood out of us, we've battled ill-health at times and we've wanted to just flag it all away more than once.

Forunately we're survivors, me, myself and I, not to mention the redoubtable Mrs Inventory. We've aleady put a few changes in motion to ensure that 2011 will be a year to remember. But that's still ahead of us.

Right now, we're on holiday. Work will take a back seat for the next ten days or so whilst we recharge our batteries in ever sense; physically, emotionally and even ( and perhaps most importantly) spiritually. The tank is empty, and has been for a wee while now; a few days of pampering with the wider whanau will be just the caper.

We might blog a bit while we're on holiday, but then again we may not; it will depend on what we are doing, how we are feeling, and whether there are places to go and people to see. But we don't reckon that there will be many of you lurking around the blogosphere over the festive season anyway, and that is as it should be!

Merry Christmas from the Inventory whanau to you and yours. May you be truly blessed this Christmas season.

I2, Merry Christmas from the "Masterley" family.
As I say to clients, now is the time to sit on the beach, watch the world go by and bury your toes in the sand. It's a great stress killer.
This year I might even follow my own advice. I hope.
I'm looking forward to a day of cricket at Pukekura Park and of course the boxing day test.
I did entertain the hope of a trip to Hobart on boxing day but that did not evetuate to goodluck all those who are going.

Thankyou Inventory for finding the energy, inspiration and committment to return to your blog, a must read for me to survive each day.
All the very best to you and your family this season of joy at the close of what has been a momentous year, all the best for 2011.
