A little earlier this morning, I slept in till 09:00 - it's going to be a struggle to get up for work tomorrow :eek:

Plans for today:

Tackle the cupboard of doom (under the stairs)
Clean chicken coop
Finish laundry
Shuffle money and pay CC bills
Iron something to wear tomorrow so I don't have to do it when I'm running late!
Meet brother & SIL in London for a late lunch/early dinner and a concert

An amazing evening with the superb John Grant and the Royal Northern Sinfonia at the Royal Festival Hall :cool:

Eggs IN 1 (I had a good rummage around the nestbox this evening but I couldn't find any more - The Girls were most indignant as I disturbed their beauty sleep!)
Eggs OUT 0

The half-yearly gas bill has arrived and we are £158 in credit :T This is after a £112 refund in June and is probably because we didn't really use the CH until last week

The GCC walking challenge is back on for a 2-week sprint in December. We went for a walk after dinner but I've only managed 9,100 steps today

I've paid the CC bills, OP'd £750 to the mortgage and still left myself a little bit of spending money for the month :j

11 pompoms made this evening so the updated little bobble hat tally is:

Completely finished = 41
Awaiting a pompom = 12
Needing sewing up and a pompom = 9

Starting to hyperventilate about everything that needs to be done before Christmas :eek:

Eggs!

And pompoms :rotfl: A lot of pompoms :T

It must be so scary to get a modern Christmas together for a family ... standards are so high these days :eek:

I still haven't told my dad that we're going to visit my brother for Christmas... trying to delay it for as long as possible to reduce the possibility that he invites himself and the old bag... so that makes me feel sad because I would love to spend Christmas with my dad but no-one wants to spend it with his ladyfriend

Still need to label/make jam jar toppers for all the stuff I've made for my hampers...

Still need to make all the perishable stuff for my hampers...

Need to buy Christmas presents

Need to write Christmas cards

Need to buy an outfit for a formal Christmas do next week

Busy at work and still have 2 x 2-day business trips (including one on 22/23 December)

I haven't done any housework since before we went on holiday and we have guests on Sunday

Also have guests on 21 December

:eek::eek::eek::eek::eek:

And breathe

I will stop the little hats when I have 50 completed and then I'll tackle everything else
