My week

I'm going to tell you about my week. 

I made this wreath, and I'm really happy. The circle was already prepared, which I suspect is the most difficult part. My job was just to make it look pretty. It was great fun and surprisingly relaxing. We had access to all sorts of stuff, holly and fern, berries and bows, bells and whistles (ok, there were no whistles). We had Christmas treats to eat and Christmas music in the background. My first attempt and I'm so proud. 

I had my first turkey dinner of the year. Peterhead football club hosts Festive Friends for the community every year. I was there to support a resident along with other staff and residents. The meal was fine and I managed quite a lot! Local school kids sang us Christmas songs which is always a treat - they were so enthusiastic. The football mascot visited (a seagull, I forget his name, Sammy I think) and the kids were just delighted. He was better than Santa!

I ate the best mince pie I've ever had. So whilst I managed a good amount of dinner I had zero room for mince pies, so I parcelled a couple up for later. OMG it was awesome. They were home made by one of the local bakeries, so guess where I was shopping yesterday lol.

I watched the worst Christmas movie, ever! 'Oh. What. Fun' with Michelle Pfeiffer. It was very bad. Don't waste your time. And this is coming from me, that watches all the terrible Hallmark Xmas films! 

All week I kept thinking I was coming down with a cold - a scratchy throat, lethargic and bone tired but nothing has developed. I did have a hot toddy the first night. We didn't have whisky so I used rum, so maybe it knocked it on the head. We'll never know, but I'm feeling ok just now.

Isaac is driving me to work this morning. It's our family Christmas lunch and party. I'll be super busy all morning helping to get prepared but then I shall relax with a real glass of vino. Yes, ladies and gentlemen I will be drinking alcohol at work! Only at Christmas. 

Have a great week and see you next Friday x

If you stumble, just make it part of the dance.
