I am finding myself sitting at the computer more than I really care for at the moment but on the other hand there are so many things I like looking at!!! I can see in England that the preparations for Christmas are fully underway - adverts such as M&S are fairytale-like in their presentation - films are being advertised - food and drink magazines are on display - so I started with my present wrapping yesterday!!
I try to make my own cards and labels every year so that is something I can do again. This time I am using Ikea red - brown parcel paper so that is also keeping to my traditional colour scheme. I have a teeny tiny Christmas Pudding in the cupboard for nearer the day, but this year I am being spoilt and have absolutely nothing to do!!! We mums are able to put our feet up, lay in bed longer, drink Sherry, go to the pub...and not worry our heads with thoughts of turkey basting and sausages!!! Wow, I won't know what to do with myself?!!!
My cards are coming on slowly. Not yet hit the jackpot with a design I really favour, but I am working on that one. I need a trip over to the hobby store at some point soon and that will fix that problem. I am lacking in paper!!!
All this is lovely, but today I need to focus on housework and cats. Finka is off to the vet this afternoon and fat Will will come along for the ride and possible sweetie from Nynke, our lovely vet. It keeps Finka calmer having Will there, and he is just so nosey, he will enjoy the trip. Neither of them love the travel basket though, so getting them in it will be the main problem. Both skiddaddle as fast as they can once it is spotted in the hall. Time for tactical measures....
Right now I have just got time to glance at Pinterest before I go off to the shops for something for dinner!! It's a glamorous life I lead . . ..
