Hello Everyone!
I hope you all had a wonderful Christmas and a good start into the new year.
The past year has been horrendous for everyone, no matter where you live. The Covid pandemic has put a lot of strain on all of us. My thoughts go to those who have lost dear ones or their job because of Covid. But today is the start of a new year. And here’s to a better one than the last.
Today will be the same as usual for me. I’ll be spending the morning in my PJ’s, enjoying a champagne breakfast before watching the live transmission from the Musikverein of this year’s New Year’s Day Concert from Vienna.
I wish you all the very best for the year to come: good health, good company and a good job.
For myself, I’d like to add a few things to that, such as:
- keep up my knitting for my local children’s cancer hospital
- continue my Strauss research and after having published articles about Johann Strauss II’s first and second wife, also have one published about his third
- hope that my cancer doesn’t come back
- stay in close contact to those who have proven to be real friends over the past two years after both my operations and my cancer treatment
My champagne is chilled. Breakfast is calling. The do not disturb sign is on the door. Let 2021 begin!
Happy New Year to you all!
