Christmas best wishes...

Just taking the opportunity of a bit of wifi to say Happy Christmas to you all!

Think this is going to be a slightly unusual Christmas but intending to work hard to make it a happy one. So far, sausage rolls, mince pies and Dundee cake made, chocolate brownies in lieu of yule log (well...variation on a theme really!) - turkey waiting to be stuffed, parcels all wrapped and under the tree.

All good then...just one slight crisis on the make front; time seems to have beaten me for one present, if I stay up late tonight I might just manage to get it part completed and it may have to be an IOU for the other half - oops!

Wishing you the very best of Christmases, here's to health, happiness and Christmas dinner co-ordinating itself tomorrow!

Til next time
Sx

life goes on...

Just a quick update...

In the last couple of weeks, I have moved house and started life over again. It all feels very strange and a bit surreal (and to be frank the timing could have been better!) but I think it will be for the best in the long run. I miss the boys all the time, but they know where I am and I hope will soon feel they can treat this as a second home in town. 

And of course, Christmas is still happening, work continues unabated and the day to day 'stuff' still continues... 

For the time being, I have no home internet connection (feel like I've had my arms cut off!!) hence the erratic nature of posting, and looks like my good intentions to complete the December photo hunt may be thwarted by general life stuff and lack of access to the web! Think perhaps I will just give in gracefully and try to get back to some kind of normal when I am 'reconnected' in mid-January.

In the meantime, amazingly (with the exception of the baking!) I think I am pretty much ready for the 25th, and I am making progress of crafty projects...

I wish you all a very happy christmas and look forward to catching up properly in 2012...
