Thanks everyone, I still ache a bit but it wouldn’t be Christmas without me having a mishap. Hopefully that’s it over and done with for this year. It’s an improvement on last year where I not only went done but toppled a display of santas that fell on top of me.
life has been incredibly busy both workwise and life wise. We had my mum’s second anniversary and attended a mass, in her name, along with three of the five other siblings. The overseas one gets a by ball and no one heard from the other.Apparently both my children are on track to make it home for Christmas-one on Friday and one on Monday. Given how many hiccups there have been, I standby with a fuel in the car and believe it when I see it.
all presents have been sorted bar 2 small one. These are being tried for today while I’m on the road for work. Speaking of which, I need to get going. Today I am grateful for
receiving money owed to me that I had written off

You must really be looking forward to the children's arrival. 🥰 You're mum's anniversary mass must have been emotional for you and your family. ❤️ Christmas time tugs one's feelings in more ways than one.On another note, picturing you sitting on the floor amongst a pile of Santas did make me chuckle!🤭Finally Debt Free! - July 2016 🌟
