So this is the New Year?

And I don't feel any different, to quote Death Cab for Cutie. True story too.

2006 was an odd year, in many many ways. I was working for Wheelock Heath Baptist Church at the start of the year, and loving it. There were ups and downs, and then I left that place - a place I do still miss. A lot. And there were SO many experiences from there that I will treasure and value and I'll never forget, people I'll miss and do miss incredibly, and then things that I won't and don't miss. Mostly, WHBC is a place I miss a ludicrous amount.

And then I moved home; a place I never wanted to move back to for any length of time. But here I am. And am quite settled in my room, if not the house. The house is odd, we've taken in those 2 teenagers. I got a new job in a care-home for adults with long-term mental health problems, which I enjoy the work but really quite strongly dislike the other staff so am keen to move elsewhere. And am keen to get money and move away...

And then that raises another question: where? I have no idea where I want to be, what I want to do, why I want to do it, or anything like that. Life is very... up in the air. And I don't muchly like it. It all feels a bit dramatic, like it's going to explode in some great big finale at some point. Hope it doesn't.

Lots of other things have changed too. Friendships, situations, lives, and all sorts. I feel like a different person from this time last year, and I'm not entirely sure I like who I am.

I guess I'm the only one who can do anything about it though.

Things aren't as bad as that makes it all sound though. I'm mostly all fine. Honest!

Also, for all who are interested - click on the "My Music Myspace" link at the side, and listen to "The Book of Love" - I recently recorded it and am quite pleased with it. Let me know what anyone thinks, although I'm quite confident that this isn't that well-read anyway!
