Here we can all be heard for a little while. Part 2

Pyxis

.....................(my addendum).................

Your baubles bashed to smithereens,
Your treetop star no longer seen,

Your twinkling lights all chewed to bits.
Among your broken branches sits
The feline felon! Christmas Tree,
Why do I bother buying thee?

This one is in a gift box!

This is a more unusual (and pricier) one

This is my favourite so far (also gift boxed)

This is a really good value one, if he wants something cheaper

Hahahaha! That's brilliant Pyxis and so true. When I had cats I put the tree back up and redecorated it every single day. They used to climb it!

Oooh, thank you whitewing! I shall send him the links and hopefully it will convince him. He really doesn't understand my wish for practical gifts, he got that from Milliefleur!

Sleep fact-We make better decisions for ourselves within 6 hours of waking and are likely to be more honest about our needs during that time. If we wake in the morning by the afternoon we stumble over things more and are more inclined to lie to hide what we feel and not speak out, our Circadian rhythm (natural sleep and wakefulness pattern that is part of all living things, even plants) is already winding us down and making us muddled. So, if possible always make important decisions within the first 6 hours of waking up and have difficult conversations with people during that period. Source-Oxford Uni Sleep Department. I am becoming a mind of information on sleep!

Aww, big hugs Melly. Take a few breaks inbetween and do something nice for yourself. You can clean and I can do all of my Christmassy things if I ever get off of the laptop.

I know you were going to clean but is there any chance you can get out for a couple of hrs anywhere just away from home?

Frightened to go out which is new and exciting
Concentrating on breathing
Will be fine is just a panic attack will be fine
