It’s been a little while since I last blogged, so hope you all had a nice Christmas and are enjoying this new decade. This might surprise some of you but I celebrated the new year in Japan only to return back to the snowy and cold UK. It’s been a pain trying to clear the snow off my car in the morning and driving has been dangerous so I’m quite glad to see most of the snow melt today.  My parent’s home (yes, still living with parents) is freezing in this weather  so hoping to get some insulation installed soon – should have been done long ago.

I’ve never been in the habit of making new year’s resolutions but I decided at the end of last year to try and pursue an MBA (Master of Business Administration) to improve my managerial skills. It just seems like an appropriate thing to do at this point in my career, even if I may not be in a position to be a manager. I also want to improve my Japanese and possibly take the new JLPT N3 exam next December – still waiting for results from my last exam. What else…try and save money for my own house (been doing this for years and getting no where) and just to enjoy life e.g. travel.

My eye sight is pretty good now about 7 weeks post surgery. I’ve been glasses free, well, ever since surgery. My right eye doesn’t seem to be as sharp as my left but with both eyes combined, I can see pretty well. Been relying less and less on the eye drops which is a good thing and have another checkup this week!
