I think she's trying to give herself an advantage in the stars stakes... or just be mean to those of us who like to wait to put our trees up.. just because she's got a forest in the house

... there's no way I'm putting a tree up yet. It'll shed all its needles before Christmas!

Have written as many cards as I can, just need to get the family ones and then I can get them posted. Would rather send in 1 go than bits here and there otherwise some get forgotten.

Need to have an early night as got to get up to take DH to work for 630 :eek: as when he finishes he needs to get home quickly as he has a 730pm appt so will pick him up as quicker than cycling. I then have to take DD to school and go across to work to take my certificate - I'm afraid you ladies have me around for another 5 weeks :rotfl:. Then its trying to find somewhere to park at the hospital for another infusion. Home from that, time for a bit of chill/flying time as DD going to friends for tea and on to the school disco. Collect DH at 630 drop him off at 730 then collect DD at 8 and collect DH again when he rings me :rolleyes:.

I'm worn out just typing that

See you all tomorrow x
