I've been a busy piggy..

Got Tesco delivery so have been putting that away and wrapping the last stuff.. OH's stuff done so just Jacob and the family bits to trawl through.. I'll do the ist for tomorrow in a second.. after shopping with my mother.. collecting th children back from KH and sorting them out and not to forget my nap.. then there is the fact I decided to fall down half the stairs at half 3 this morning while heading off to pee.. I have twisted my ankle, hurt my wrist with the RSI that was just about mended broken a nail bruises my delicate derriere and.. broken a toe... I've not had a good day!! Did I mention pulling my stomach sneezing so every single thing I do hurts?! It almost killed me putting the shopping away!

Christmas cards arrived today.. thank you everyone.. I was greatly amused by how many had bunnies or kitties on the front .. lol.. thank you all xxx

TRIKER.. there are a couple of cards here for you hun.. .. xx Are you busy Thursday? I may need a time out by then.

I'm not really big on recipes BUT it went roughly like this:

Thank you. They will probably come in handy for next year's Christmas presents or other special occasions.


The tree is up and decorated, so I can focus on the rest of the house from tomorrow. I still need to collect some presents tomorrow, and I still haven't got a clue what to get DH. Leaving it late, I know. I'll update my list, and then it's time for bed.
