Between going to north Wales to celebrate Christmas with my family at the beginning of the month, travelling to west Wales to celebrate the Other Half's mum's 70th, being ill with a terrible cold and throat infection and preparing everything for the festivities, it's been pretty hectic.
One more day (well, 7 hours 24 minutes) left in work and then relaaaax. I am so ready this year.
I think I'm ready for Christmas as well. Considering the manic last few weeks I've done pretty well. All the gifts are bought, wrapped and sent. All the cards are written and sent. Turkey is bought. Really, everything else is optional.
I didn't have much time for crafts this year, which is a real shame. But I did love my brown and red theme wrapping, my shop-bought paper snowflake decorations and the black and turquoise glitter nails for my work do - they count as something homemade right?
Anyway, just a few more things to do this week - making salmon mousse tonight, cheesecake tomorrow night and then I'm off work on Wednesday (woo!) so I can make some yummy cheese straws (that probably won't even make it to Christmas day) and chop all the veggies. Oh, and defrost the turkey. Now that would be a disaster.
I hope all you lovely people have lovely plans for the holidays and that you get to where you need to get to without any horror train delay / traffic jam stories.
Have a great time and see you in the New Year. xx
