My desk is looking tidy!! :D:D:D:D

Dusty.. I can't decide what to keep in my hamper.. I'd like it on display too but the children and cats and rabbits would destroy it so it will have pride of place in my room so I can enjoy it!!

*devours shortbread bickies.... these are delish.. my faves*

wine and coffee and bickies and preserves and olives and sweets and nuts and hot choc and liquers and champagne and port (I've not had that since my dad gave us all some when I was about 10.. on christmas eve to make us all sleep and we all went hyper and were bouncing off the walls and up all night.. lol) and erm.. oh heavenly chocolate fudge sauce... *slurp* .. christmas pud and christmas cake and mince pies (my grandad was a spy in the war.. a MIN SPY) and heaps of yummies..

It filled a shelf and a bit in my cupboard

oh! and I am not even hungry after reading that.
Attic job done. Kitchen cleaning suspended due to DD preparing food for her and her brother so I shall divert...

:wave: Feeling a bit stressed! Children driving me a bit nuts for no particular reason. I think it's because my room is a mess and they keep traipsing through it even when I've told them not to come in! Got loads and loads of presents to wrap and feeling a tad bit despondent about that whole thing.

Did well in my half hour challenge with Vivw. I:

• Degibletted the turkey and put them in a saucepan to bubble away for stock for gravy tomorrow
• Dysoned the living room
• Got the frozen stuff out the freezer and in the new fridge to defrost
• Hung another lot of washing up to dry
• Put one of the throws from the settee in the washing machine as it's got mucky which is annoying as I only did it a couple of days ago (so it seems!)
• Put tins of dog and cat food away
• Started cleaning the utility area

I'm just scoffing some cheese and biscuits to give me energy to carry on. The cleaning is almost there I think. I ought to go and do the garden now before it gets dark

Pigpen - the hamper sounds lovely! Enjoy it!
