It has been a long haul, just making it through the year. Lots of things have changed. Not necessarily for the better. I did make one good decision last year. Any time that I wanted to visit someone that lived far away, I had to find a place for Skye, my Akita. Finding a kennels was always difficult, or impossible, and if I did manage to find one, it was expensive.
So I bought a caravan. The dog comes with me, and we have all the accommodation we need. It takes a bit of effort, but I manage to cover a lot of miles. Worth the effort.
I am also getting back to my writing. We will see what comes from that.
