We are on the countdown to Christmas now and the days are busy, which is why I haven't been here for a few days. I have been busy sorting through things and making sure that all is in hand for Christmas.
I have been washing tablecloths and now have the ironing of them, sorting through all the things I have made. Today I have been through the fridge and sorted out stuff which has been tossed out - making room for other goodies.
Soon it will be time to turn on the fridge in the garage for extra food and drinks.
I seem to have everything in hand with the only shopping left to be done being the fresh fruit which I will leave until much later in the week.
I am well and happy and content with my decorating and preparations - a very different story to last year when at this stage I was still in hospital and hoping to escape to home for Christmas.
I have been listening to beautiful music and spent the afternoon listening to Handel's Messiah - truly beautiful.
My heart is full and I am looking forward to my family being with me for at least some part of Christmas day.
Only a few little cooking things to do - shortbread Christmas tree and a mixed berry trifle with raspberries on top.
I have been invited to meet "on line" friends on Thursday at 11 at Ikea for coffee and I am hoping that I can be there. These are friends from a Christmas Group I belong to.
However you are spending these last few days before Christmas be sure to enjoy the things you do - bake cookies with a child, read a Christmas story, make a phone call to a friend - spread the joy and happiness that is so special at this time of year.
Enjoy it all and be safe as you travel on your way.
Love and hugs,
