    I have just spent the last hour or so rearranging some of the furniture in the livingroom and giving it a bit of a clean in anticipation of the Christmas decorations going up at the end of the week. Have moved the sofa which then meant I had to clean the windows and hoover and damp dust. Oh the joys of a Sunday afternoon, but at least I feel like I have done something.

    Now I need a cuppa to recover. Not used to all the cleaning, I usually take the minamilist approach to cleaning.

    Haven't really got into the whole vampire thing. I think I am way too old for it all.

    Twilight - not vampires....just an emo-teen vision of vampiric life.
    Anne Rice however...THAT's vampire!

    I'm glad I didn't go out, it's just snowed again.

    No snow here - but it's freezing! And I don't usually feel the cold - but had heating on all day :o

    Off to my mum's soon - kinda wasted the weekend, with it being so cold, but have enjoyed my day in bed/on the sofa with a book :p
    Sometimes it's hard to walk in a single woman's shoes - that's why we need really special ones!
