And another week past! Had our girls over for their birthdays on 2 and 5 December today - lots of food and chat, and we even heated our stove.
Also posted my first Xmas cards yesterday. Have a good weekend!

Enjoy your time off, Kygal! Started watching the ski races and sometimes the football world championship. Will go to a Christmas market with family tomorrow. Is supposed to be cold though and perhaps even snowing. Have a good weekend all!

Hope you enjoyed the market Midoro. And stayed warm. I am officially finished with my Christmas shopping and have everything wrapped. Can relax and enjoy the next couple of weeks. Hosting both sides of the family at our house. Having a lazy day today!

Hi all, real life has been super hectic lately, sorry to have bailed on you. Changes at work made things extra busy and extra stressful. Hopefully in the new year things will slow down.

Sorry life is hectic for you, Rachel, but hope it will get more quiet in the future. My Mum is in hospital again, but will perhaps get surgery this time. Will visit her tomorrow to find out more. Not that I needed this with Christmas preparations... Otherwise cold here and snowing again. Have a good weekend all!

Midoro, so sorry to hear about your mother. Hope everything goes well.
Kygal, yes things should calm down in the new year.
Weather here has been wet and a bit chilly. Supposed to get much colder next week. Might even have snow for Christmas.

Oh no Midoro. Thoughts and prayers for your mother's recovery.
Last weekend before the holiday. Hard to believe. It is going to be a cold week here. Would love some ( a little) snow for Christmas.
Have a nice weekend!

Last night my husband insisted that I must have lit the wrong candle on the Advent wreath. He couldn't believe that Christmas was so close! Speaking of my husband, I'm ready to kill him, again. This weekend he and daughter took a road trip to see a basketball tournament. Visited a bookstore and bought a book. Wouldn't tell me the title, but said it was for both of us. I'm willing to bet 100% that it's a book I already have wrapped for him under the tree. He does this all the time, a few days before his birthday or Christmas he'll go out and buy himself something. Drives me nuts!
Very cold here this weekend also Kygal. And they are actually calling for snow on Christmas Eve.

MEN! My hubby will not really do much shopping. He will get me a nice gift card but I do all the shopping for everyone else in our lives. My dad used to be hard to buy for. I know it is frustrating to have a great gift for someone and they buy it themselves. Ugh!

We us it’s the opposite, I hate to shop (a friend says I don’t shop, I buy things) and husband loves it. He’s constantly looking for bargains. When he sees something he wants he goes ahead and buys it without even thinking that his birthday or Christmas is right around the corner.

Well, I guess it is good to admire that quality even if frustrating...lol. I am not a huge shopper. If I am in the mood for it then look out. I usually shop as a mission. Knowing what I am looking for and getting it done. Not much of a browser unless I just need to get out of the house in the winter.
