Hello everyone,
I hope this week is treating you kindly, as it can be a stressful time of the year, with so much to do as we all know.
The Christmas mince pies and cookies have been baked, and may need to bake another batch of the mince pies, as with friends dropping by and gifting little packages they have gone fast. Some last minute gift wrapping still needs to be done and then we are looking forward to having family home for the holidays.
A bouquet of pretty flowers for the table, always makes me happy
Spending the lasts days of the year, reflecting on what has been and planning for what is ahead.
It is the perfect time for contemplation, dreams and goals for next year.
Christmas weaves a magic wand over this world and behold everything is softer and more beautiful

I would like to wish you all a wonderful, magical Christmas and happy holidays. It will be a good time to relax and recharge for the year ahead.
Merry Christmas! ... May your day be filled with love and laughter
hugs
Carolyn
Hello everyone and happy December.
I know I am a little late, as already it is the 5th but life seems to be busy all of a sudden and this is the first time have been able to sit down at the computer.
All good and just been working away tidying up in the garden and doing things around the house.
Yesterday we had the biggest storm, the loudest thunder and bright lightening and was very scary hearing claps and booms of thunder and some seemed to be right overhead and made the house shake.
In the afternoon the sun came out so I ventured out in the garden, and the kitchen and lounge doors were wide open and got the surprise of my life to walk into the kitchen to find about 10 angry bees buzzing about and managed to coax them to fly back outside. Don't know if a bee hive had got washed out or how they came to be in the house.
As the countdown to Christmas begins, hope it will be relaxing and a stress free time.
Are you decorating and putting your tree up, or baking perhaps?
I am planning to make a start at the weekend.
Hope you are enjoying the week and I look forward to coming to visit you.
hugs
Carolyn
