Another week gone , Christmas tree is up , helped by the GKs . Christmas cards posted , hope I remembered everyone.
I have one gift to buy and am stuck. This friend lost her husband earlier in the year and I was trying to think of an appropriate gift , if anyone has any ideas please comment.
Received news today that the event from last week was worth going through as it had brought the outcome we hoped for as a family.
I had an accident on Saturday, fell off a chair backwards and banged my head on the floor . I ended up with the mother of all headaches , that had only just felt better today. My back has a massive bruise on it, teach me to stand on chairs with slippers on.
My phone bill has decreased this month to £9 , sim only .
Sunday sees me flying off to Spain for 5 days , I have enough euros left over from when I went away 3 years ago:beer:.
I have friends arriving on Thursday evening to stay until Sunday, so a busy few days ahead for me.
This is such a busy time of year , and it is easy to overspend , but I am being mindful of every penny o spend.
That's it for now.Life is an adventure, never stop exploring.1 -
That's great news that you got the result you wanted from your difficult experience
.
Sorry about your fall, that must have hurt.
I hope you enjoy your busy few days and especially Spain.
