Good morning Jeferey and anyone else around.


I bet your oh will love her earings Jeferey and what a great saving too.
Bit cold for doing the garden atm with all this wind, rain, sleet and snow. My garden resembles a pond this morning, it is so flooded. Its rained all night and is totally waterlogged.

I hope so CW I haven't done anything in our garden today either!
We had a hard frost last night - everything white over. We went for a walk around a lake with FD and a FB who's staying for the weekend. Took nearly 3 hours but it was great as we were all wrapped up. She walked more than half of it!

Cards nearly all written now, just need to pay a small fortune to post them. Wrapping still a work in progress, the person who invented curling ribbon is not my favourite person at the moment. Few more bits to wrap still. Think most of the present buying Is done except for poor old OH. just present delivery to do now....is it never ending ....

Good morning guys

Most of my cards now posted thank goodness, not a job I enjoy I have to admit. Also wrapped most of the presents yesterday. Just got to keep checking around the house as I buy presents all year round and stash them anywhere I can, then it takes a while to get them all out at xmas. lol.

Sounds as though the children had fun on your walk Jeferey. :)

I can't say I really enjoy writing xmas cards either but tried to make an effort this year to write a personal note in each, it was quite poignant crossing off all the people who have passed away this year, but nice to add a very old school friend whom I reconnected with this year. Makes you think.

Good morning guys

Hope you all had a great weekend. I made mince pies yesterday for my dh as I hate them. Can;t believe its xmas next week though and got a few more pressies to wrap yet. Will try and do them today.

Afternoon all, stamps purchased for cards (after 40mins in the post office!) loaves baked as xmas gifts (going to relatives on Wed) - looks like a loaf explosion in our kitchen atm, the first two sunk last night so made two more. After me making two test runs last week I'm a bit sick of date and walnut loaf so will palm one off to OH work and prob one to my DM tomorrow. Few more prezzies to wrap - now its the mammoth coordination of getting them to their various recipients - honestly, it's easy to herd cats!

Just over a week to go to the big event.....the JAN Sales! :rotfl:
