December ... and so busy!

December always seems to be such a busy time of the year.... we are in the festive season and let's celebrate mode.
The past week has been very busy with the Graduation on Thursday, going to a dinner party with friends on Friday Evening and then a friends 50th birthday Party on Saturday.
It is lovely to be home today and to be able to relax a little.

The other day I was catching the ferry to the City and my heel got caught on a metal joining piece of the gangway. I fell headfirst, my skirt went up and was terribly embarrassing having to pick myself and contents of my handbag up. Some very kind commuters came to my aid.
I am feeling a little sore as my knees were grazed, but could have been far worse, as I could have broken something, but just my pride was dashed.
The ferry operator told me that others had done the same thing and after filling out a report of the accident, I really hope they will put this right, so others, will not have this happen to them.



This was the view at dusk, from the patio of our friends home, where we went to dinner.
They have a huge, beautiful new house with a Master bedroom, bathroom and dressing room, about the size of our house ~ or that is what it felt like.

How is your December going? .... busy with decorating, tree trimming, gift buying and wrapping.
I will share some photos soon of Christmas, at our home.

I hope that you are getting the chance to enjoy this beautiful season.

Hugs
