It will be of no surprise to those that have followed me for a while that I would love “Stranger Things”! I have watched it from the first Season so the final Season 5 is a must watch. I have just watched the first four Episodes that opened yesterday and as always they have left us hanging until Christmas Day!
I think I have loved this series because it is set in the 1980’s and we all know that the music from that decade was so good. I was 16 in 1980 and I really hit the 1980’s at the right age. It was a great decade for me and one that I look back on very fondly and in fact would love to go back to! Anyway onto this new Season.
For those that have not watched it yet do not read on!!!
There has been a lot of discussions out there as to who of the main characters may end up not making it out of Hawkins at the end. Will has now discovered that he has powers like Eleven and finally able to stop the Demogorgons from attacking his friends.
Having seen these first four Episodes my own personal opinion is that Will is not going to make it. Right from Season One Episode One when he disappeared everyone thought he was dead then and by some miracle that no one seems to have talked about Joyce got him back which has all been a gigantic plan of Vecna’s to keep an eye on what has been going on. I think Will will die in the end leaving the rest of the friends to survive but mourn his loss. I think Max will find her way out with Holly just in time to defeat Vecna, the Demogorgons and the Mind Flayer once and for all thus freeing Hawkins from the Upside Down and all who live there.
Will they show our Heroes going back to their normal lives and getting back to living without the constant fear of Vecna and crew or will we be left after the final battle to then believe what we want to believe about them moving on? A lot has been said about the endings of shows that have been so popular with audiences, especially the ending of Game of Thrones which was a travesty, especially to those who have read all the books, ME! Therefore I hope that The Duffer Brothers have taken this on board and give us a good ending. We shal know on New Year’s Even when the final Episode airs!

Today I don’t think my feet touched the ground once! We were up very early and having sorted out Blaze and Gordon loaded Coco up in her crate and went off to get Honey for their Spa Day. I was taken to Eldests where I was able to get his work done. DH got back having collected a Christmas present on the way, to get the girls at 12.00pm, drop Honey off at home and then have some lunch with us before we had to get home for DH to leave for the Christmas Light Switch on in Ilkeston tonight! It has been colder today and rained heavily earlier so we are hoping that it will stay dry for tonight.
Tomorrow morning we are going to get our Christmas tree first thing as well as Eldest’s as they have all come down with the sickness bug! We are going to have some breakfast and then get back, do some jobs and then decorate our home! I still have some parcels to wrap and our cards to write and then we will be ready! The days are flying by and so are the weeks of course!
I hope you lovely lot have a wonderful weekend. and I shall see you all here on Monday.
To All My American Friends & Followers we hope you have a wonderful Thanksgiving!
*******************
This week has flown by as usual after my little pity party yesterday! Today has been home jobs day and I have not only had Miss Coco following me around today, I have also had Gordon too!
Gordon is quite happy being here and Blaze, having lived here for well over a year is just home. He has a little route around our home and he just goes back to doing it. The reason they are here is because Youngest & Fiancé are going to a hotel tonight for Youngest’s work. He has been nominated by Jaguar Land Rover nationally for an award. He is up against others for the award so we will not know how he has done until tomorrow night, but being nominated is amazing as it is a National award and there are six others so he has already done very well. There is a buffet dinner tonight and then tomorrow night there is a dinner and ball. They will be home on Saturday morning.
They are also going to come back to living here with us as well. The home they have been in since the beginning of the year has been fine but one or two things have changed and so the decision has been made to come back home. We are putting all their things into storage and they are bringing themselves and the animals home. We will have to do some re-arranging but we will fit them all in!
Tonight is the first of the Christmas Lights Switch On in Long Eaton which DH is commentating on and tomorrow night is Ilkeston. The Christmas Light Switch on in the Village is not until the following week. We have some other events coming up so it is going to get very busy. We have Presentation Night for the swimming club and also a Fun Gala too, we have dates arranged for seeing family and friends. DH and I are going to a Classical Concert and we also have a couple days of shopping to do and he also has a couple of business lunches to go to as well. Jayne and I, Ladies who Lunch, are also out for our Christmas Lunch on December 9th and I will get some pictures of that. Can’t wait.
We are hoping to get our Christmas Tree on Saturday morning and decorate our home, as well as getting a couple of jobs done and also write the Christmas cards. I have almost finished the present wrapping and then on Sunday we are celebrating Youngest’s Birthday and hearing all about his Event. Before we know it, it will be Monday again!
Tomorrow Coco is having a spa day and we are also taking Honey again for a wash and deshedding spa day for Eldest & Partner. I will be at his to get the work done as well and then be home for Blaze and Gordon and then DH will be off to the Light Switch On! Another busy day. Our weather has been very cold for quite a few days and frosty and one day being quite foggy. The sun tried very hard to break through the fog but did not quite clear it. Today has been mild but tomorrow is cooler and then we are going to have some more frosts next week. I will try and get some pictures.
Have a wonderful weekend you lovely lot and don’t spend too much tomorrow on Black Friday!!!
Do you ever, in your life, think that the Universe has got it in for you? I know over the years at certain times I think it has had it in for me! Well yesterday was one of them! I had an eye appointment at the Hospital, yes the one I have just spent three days in with my hip. My Optician noticed that at the back of my eye the fluid which is normally attached is pulling away. This happens and normally it is not a problem except for me! It is not pulling away properly and is, in fact, creating a hole which if it carries on can cause my vision to be reduced by up to 60%.
The solution another operation! However the first five to seven days after it has been done I have to spend 45 minutes of every hour with my head resting on my arm so that I am at 45 degrees! Then it will be six to eight weeks befoe we know if it has been successful. If not they do it again! Apparently this can happen to anyone although it is more common in women than men and is often hereditary, thanks Mom & Dad! Of course because they both died when they were 55 I will never know if it was because of them or my Mom!
Only ME!
Of course the other complication is having just had my hip done that is going to delay having this done but I cannot delay too long because they don’t want it to get too bad! Also I have to lie on my side at night which is also not easy so another reason for the delay! I have to go back on January 2nd for another scan to see how it is, there is always the hope that it has managed to detach itself and the hole will repair itself but you can guarantee it will not and won’t so I am looking at an Op in March or April! Of course I will not be able to drive again for probably two months and I have to hope that it works the first time! I will also add this is all done under local again!
To say I am sick of hospitals is an understatement and now this after my hip. Of course I will worry myself to death over it until it happens so I am already not looking forward to 2026! I will let you know after the next scan how things go!
I keep seeing on Instagram all these people putting up their Christmas decorations! Now you know I love Christmas but even I think it is a little too early on November 17th to be putting them up. I know the stores have had the decorations up for a while now but it is sort of expected and the decorations are going up in the towns but I have seen quite a few homes already decorated. I think it is because people are so fed up with the World as it is at the moment that the decorations add a little bit of cheer. Saying all this I have decided to get our decorations down and sort them out next weekend!!!!
I think I will change my Blog over to a more Christmas feel in the next few days.
DH was out all weekend and I did get some quilting done which is not quite finished yet. I still need to get five more little quilts done before Christmas so may take the odd day here and there to ensure they get done.
Speaking of Christmas this film is 35 years old on November 16th! Now how did that happen? DH and I went to the cinema to see it when it first came out, I was 26 and DH 33 and we had been married for two years. I remember sitting in the cinema crying with laughter at the film, I don’t remember any other film ever having that affect on me. I just loved it and still watch it now all through the year but especially at Christmas. I think Christmas movies are like Christmas songs there are a few which you play every year and are never fed up of and will play them on repeat well Home Alone is definitely one of them. I do not like Home Alone 2 or any of the subsequent ones just the original.
Here are some pictures of our garden in its Autumn finery. The big space in the picture above is where we have had to take out the Box bush so that will stay like this now until Spring when I have some plans for some new plants to go in.
Our two trees in the garden the one onthe right which is the cherry tree has lost all of its leaves now. The one on the left is the Cotoneaster which keeps its leaves all year except for a few is sheds. It was trimmed when the men came into more of a round shape.
The conifers have also had trim and shape as well at the top of the steps. We still have a little bit of work to do with trimming some of the summer plants which need to be done in the next two weeks when it will be the last brown bin of the season.
Coco is having a snooze this morning!!!! The weather is turning this week into more of our normal Autumn temperatures with freezing overnight so she is getting into hibernation mode!
Have a wonderful week and I will post photographs as and when I get the Christmas decorations up!!
Well one of my Aims at the start of this year, as in most years, was to increase my reading. I don’t know about you but I do go through phases of reading non-stop and then only reading a bit a day and of course there is the inevitable reading slump which seems to affect everyone at some point. I have also got myself out of my reading slump by listening to books through the BookBeat App when I am working. This has definitely helped and some of the books have been really successful and others not so much but that happens with hard copy books too.
Anyway onto the books I have read and listened too in November 2025 so far;
Thisa is a hard copy book which I started last month and have about twenty pages left. It is about the three Dahlias and them investigating a murder at the Castle in Scotland where they have been invited to the wedding of their dear friend and the Laird of the Castle. The castle gets cut off by a bad snow storm and also loses power and then the murder happens. Not only is a young woman dead but she is wearing the wedding dress and a diamond necklace which had gone missing! Why and who did it? It is a gentle read with no horros in it and I have thoroughly enjoyed it. Just waiting to see who the murderer is!!!!
****
This is one of the hard copy books I am not sure of! I sort of liked it but then the more I got into the book the more I did not like the main character at all!
Dinah Marshall meets up with her old Oxford University friends for a weekend away but she was not invited the first time round, she was invited because one of the other friends could not make it. So Dinah knows she is second best. It does not help that she did not finish University with her friends but that was another story. They are staying in a fabulous home in one of the Home County villages whilst the owners are holidaying abroad. To Dinah this home represents everything her life is not, her small flat would fit into the sitting room and her job at the local cafe does not provide her with much money. She becomes obsessed with the owners of the home and starts to stalk them, putting herself on the fringes of their group and then miracle of miracles she gets drawn into their group, but it will end in murder.
Dinah is not a likeable person and the more you get to know her the more you don’t like her but then she has to put up with a very pushy younger sister who treats her like her third child and a mother wo does not care about her at all, she is seen as just a nuisance and her sister has spies reporting on Dinah’s behaviour to her! Therefore you begin to feel sorry for her but then she does something and you are right back to the you could quite cheerully smack her!!! This is where I got to with this book and at the end it is a bit of a mess. Would I read another one of Ruth Irons books? Probably not but I did give it four stars.
******************
****
I gave this Four Stars as well because again I was not sure about the story and again the ending was not quite right!
Two couples, one bad decision a death and a cover up! Kirsten and Nick are driving home after a weekend away in Devon when they are involved in an accident and a man is killed. Instead of calling the autorities they decide that they will cover it up including taking the dog that the man was walking!
Amy & Greg have been married for ten years and are expecting their first baby together. When Greg fails to come hom from a short dog walk Amy begins to worry and calls the Police, their friends and his parents. The Police first think that Greg has left because of his life changing, baby on the way, his business is slow, been married for ten years. However Any knows that Greg would not leave her and something is wrong but they cannot find him or their dog Rusty. Amy decides to investigate his disappearance herself and vows to get justice and if she cannot get justice then it will be revenge!
The story wa good although in parts slightly annoying. There is a twist in the end but then the final bit is a bit far fetched so hmm. Definitely one I would not read again.
******************************
*****
This I listened to whilst doing a job on Thursday and finished it on Thursday as well! I loved it! If I could give it more stars I would!
DI Barton is about to retire but he is not sure if he actually wants to. His loving wife Holly has put up with so much over the years and now their children, one at University and one about to go, are older he wants to give Holly time to do what she wants to do for a change. However there is one last case he needs to deal with before he leaves and it is an unusal case. Firstly he has to help his young neighbour who has been abandoned by her husband with their almost one year old son. He finds her stood in her living room with no heat or lights on and a knife in her hand. She has not done anything but she is stood looking into the distance, her son is safe upstairs in his cot. He taks her and the little boy home and Holly moves into high gear getting her warm and feeding the baby. He knows they are safe.
The same thing cannot be said for a member of the local Book Club. He and his wife went home after the meeting at the beginning of December and whilst he was in his study have a nightcap whisky he falls to sleep never to wake up. It is assumed he died of a heart attack until the Pathologist finds no heart disease. DI Barton and his team take on this last case to find the murderer before he strikes again, although he may already have done so.
This story is well written, DI Barton and the characters are very likeable and he goes about his investigation without any fanfare but does so in a way where he gets answers without too much stress. It is funny in places and there is no angst in it. All in all a great read with a good ending. There are several of the DI Barton books so I am now able to go back and read the others which is always a bonus finding a new set of books!
**********************
As we are going into the third week of November, the third “Ber” Month, I have got out my “Christmas” books which I love to read at this time of year, all those cosy Christmas books with the odd Christmas murder thrown in!!!! I will let you have a list next month.
I have also started to listen to this on my Book App. I have seen a lot of recommendations for Riley Sager books and as we know what one person likes is not always liked by someone else and this may be the case with his books! I am 20% of the way through this and will be listening to it whilst I am cleaning but the Narrator, Stephanie Cannon, her voice is a little hard to listen to! She comes across as a little girl playing dress up!!! I will contine to see how it goes but not sure yet!
*****************
That is my round up for November. December is looking good as I got quite a few Christmas books on my TBR shelf from last year. As the nights are drawing in fast, it is now dark by 4.15pm, it is the perfect time of year for reading by the fire. Hopefully by the end of today I will be able to finish my book and then start another. I hope you lovely lot are able to find time to read over the weekend.
Well another named storm has blown through the UK and particularly for us in Derbyshire and I have never seen so much rain! It began on Thursday night with the rain and it never stopped yesterday at all and it was heavy rain too. We also had high winds so lots of branches and some trees down. It was named Storm Claudia. Can we please stop naming them! Because since we have been naming them they have seemed to be so much worse than normal, lets just call them Winter storms!!!!!!
Eldest was out with his Fire Brigade unit over night and have, with another unit, resced 57 from a bus which was stranded in flood water! Generally in this weather it is silly people who drive into flooded roads and then their cars die because water gets into the air intake and then end up stranded. They are rescued and then ask the Firemen to rescue their cars which, of course, they do not do!!!
Coco has not been happy going out in it although last night just before bed when it was raining very hard she stood on our patio gazing around getting soaked, then objected to being dried when she came in!!!! She is going to have a much needed brush later which she will not like either but she is a mess where she got very wet!!!
DH is spending today and tomorrow here at The Arc in Matlock for one of the local swimming clubs their Open. We will be here in January for our Open. I, of course, have other jobs to do. I did not get the cleaning finished on Thursday for another reason which I cannot share just yet, so I will be finishing that this morning. Part of that reason was for our trip out yesterday, I was not at Eldest’s yesterday so I am doing his work today as well. I also want to get some quilting done too and it may be that I will get most of that done tomorrow. I will perhaps pinch a day here or there to get things done.
I am having the day off on Tuesday as Jayne is coming for lunch here, as I cannot still drive yet but I am making lunch. Really looking froward to seeing her. We have our next book to read which is Jayne’s choice and have a catch up. The next few weeks and weekends are going to be busy and in between all of that we have to get the Christmas decorations up and sort out visits to Family and Friends. Tonight when DH gets back we are going to sort out the Christmas gifts I have got already and then perhaps wrap them which will then be another job ticked off the list. Just the Christmas cards then to do!
Yesterday should have been Book Club Friday, but we did not get back until late so I will be doing it and the post will go up later today.
I hope you wonderful lot have had a good week. Next week we are due to get the first cold snap of the year which I think we have done well to get to the third week of November without it being too cold so far. We are going to have some frosty mornings and there will be scraping of car windows, quite glad I do not have to go out early in the morning! Have a wonderful weekend.
They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old; Age shall not weary them, nor the years condem. At the going down of the sun and in the morning, We will Remember them.

***********************************************
We had a busy week last week and Friday we were with Eldest at the garage me work and DH sorting jobs out! Over the weekend we had nothing on so spent the two days in our garage sorting out boxes. We did get quite a few done and several things sorted out and ended up with six boxes emptied and cleared. There are still quite a lot to do but quite a few of them now contain toys from when the Boys were little which need sorting and tidying and some of them can already go to Little Man and some for when the new Baby arrives.
This week has been busy again and I have been doing work and sorting things out in our home as well. Coco has been helping although getting in the way is more accurate. Bonfire Night lasted for two weekends and the actual day of last Wednesday although it was not as many fireworks as might have been as the weather was not good. I had two visitors last Thursday to see me whch was lovely and Jayne is coming for lunch next Tuesday and this weekend DH is out both days at a swimming Open so I will be quilting.
My hip is coming along nicely and the only thing which is slowing me down at the moment is going up and downstairs which is still difficult, but today it has been three weeks since the Op, so hopefully the next three weeks and my checkup after the six weeks I am hoping it will have got a little easier. We shall see.
Even though it is just DH and I now, as well as Coco, I always seem to have a basket of ironing to do! That is today’s job and then Thursday is home jobs day. Friday DH and I are visiting a customer in the morning and I have a visit to the quilt shop which is near to where we are going. That is too good an oportunity to miss out on! I am going to have to get Eldest’s computer and work and do that over the weekend this week as we will not have time to go there as well on Friday.
It is our Wedding Anniversary this week; 37 years! The above is from our Wedding Album and no it is not sepia coloured just the light when I took the picture! With DH being out all weekend we are thinking of having a takeaway on Friday noght, Date Night in. Friday it is going to be heavy rain all day and the temperature is dropping so it is not making me want to go out. The day we got married it was a very clear frosty day with bright sunshine but cold and our pictures were amazing. We got married at 11.00am and then after photographs etc we sat down for the wedding breakfast at 1.00pm aand then finished around 5.00pm. We did not have an evening event but went away on Honeymoon to The Lake District, where it snowed! We had a great two weeks.
Then the weekend after that we are taking the children to see Santa on the train. That has come round very quickly since I booked it in July this year! The last weekend in November we are babysitting, not the children but the animals! Blaze and Gordon are coming to stay whilst Youngest & Fiancé are away for the weekend at a work event for him. We will also be sorting out the deocations that weekend and the Tree and possibly all of us going for a meal out because it will be Youngest’s Birthday too. It is all go. Then it will be the headlong rush to Christmas but the best bit of it all for me seeing family and friends for Christmas. This is why I like to get everything done before December arrives so that we are able to actually enjoy the Festive Season without trying to do it all. Well that is the plan anyway!
“Remember, Remember The Fifth of November, Gunpowder, Treason & Plot!”
The Night we remember Guy Fawkes when he tried to blow up the Houses of Parliament in 1605 but was stopped at the very last minute when the Authorities received an anonymous letter telling them of the plot. Fawkes was arrested that night whilst guarding the gunpowder. We let fireworks off to represent the gunpowder and we have bonfires where we used to burn an effigy of Guy Fawkes.
Here are a few pictures of the Boys and the fireworks we have had over the years in the garden. DH is out tonight running Event Control for the Council Bonfire. Normally I would have gone with him but it is cold and I don’t fancy sitting in the Truck or the cold van for a few hours!!!!
The Boys with sparklers
Fountains going off in the garden.
The firework below was at an organised event we went to.
It has been getting colder here and Coco’s quilt cover is cotton and so I decided to get her a brushed cotton one which I think will be warmer for her. They arrived last week, they have penguins on them, and she loves it. She immediately got in her basket and snuggled up!
I managed to get two for £16 which is a good idea as she gets them mucky quite quickly!!! So one on, one in the wash! This was one of the reasons she did not do her Coco’s Corner post yesterday, she was too comfy!
I have been keeping up to date with work and home jobs and getting a few other things sorted including things for Christmas. This weekend DH is home all weekend so we are going to carry on doing the de-cluttering in our garage. It is a job I am determined to get finished by the end of the year and we have a few days between Christmas & New Year to get it done finally. Part of this is also our attic although quite a bit of what was stored up there is now in the garage. We are giving things to the Boys that we have saved including baby things so that is working well.
I have been re-watching Series 4 of “Stranger Things” to remind me what happened before Series 5 finale starts at the end of this month. I have found that when you have such a long time between series you forget what has happened. I realised this when I was watching Game of Thrones all the way through with no breaks, some things made sense that never did before because of the gap between the series. So I now go and watch the previous series so I know where I am up to.
I will take some pictures of the garden, most of our leaves are now off our trees although the very big trees which are in the field at the top of our garden have not started to lose theirs yet so we will be in for more leaf gathering. Coco is enjoying the space we have created in the bed where we had to take out the Box plants and I am planning which plants to put in next Spring but I am not doing anything with it until then.
I hope you are all having a great week, tomorrow is Thursday and I have a friend coming for coffee and biscuits in the morning to see me. Have a good rest of the week.
I went in on Tuesday October 21st at 7.00am for my Op and fortunately I was second on the list for that day so did not have to wait too long before going down to theatre. I will not gross you out with the details but after four hours I was back on the Ward with DH! An hour later I was up and walking to the bathroom and getting things moving. I was in a bay with three other ladies, two had new knees and the other had had an accident and had plates put in. I was determined to get home as soon as possible but ended up staying for three days. I have found, the few times I have been in hospital, that you never sleep properly, they are always too warm and the constant checks they do on you during the night when you have just nodded off!!!! Anyway my Consultant was happy for me to come home on the Thursday evening, I did stay in bed on Friday catching up on my sleep, got up Saturday and then spent Sunday in bed. Monday I was back at my desk working.
The best bit of it all, there is no pain in the hip! Yes it is sore and of course swollen but I can cope with all of that as there is no pain. I did have the clips taken out on Friday, all sixty of them (!) and the Nurse checked the wound which is all fine and healing well. The only problem is that my skin around the wound has reacted to the dressings and has blistered in places but it is fine. I have been doing my exercises every day and the only thing which is taking time is going up and down the stairs but everything else is fine.
At the weekend I managed to get all the cleaning done and the washing and now have a basket of ironing to get done.
Friday I was at Eldests getting two weeks worth of his work done and he is now up to date. Just before I went in to hospital there was a software upgrade to the Accounts package we use and this new version is running with AI and it is dreadful! It takes fifteen minutes just to log in and has obviously not been thought through properly at all! Anyway despite all that he is now sorted. Our work is also up to date although DH’s laptop for work, which he uses all day every day, stopped working the weekend I was home so he has had to have a new one and get all his data across! He has spent the last week doing work onhis phone which is never easy but today he is back up and running!
I missed saying Happy Halloween to everyone and we did have a few Trick or Treaters on Friday evening, although I was still with Eldest. DH came home to feed Coco and let her out and sort out the shopping whilst I finished Eldest’s work. The weather was not very nice so we think that put a few people off.
DH over the weekend raked all the leaves in our garden and had a tidy up as the weather was nice and the best bit of the weekend I got out of Hospital was that we put the Hour back and gained an extra hour in bed!!! I know that means that it will be getting dark earlier but I do love this time of year! It is cosy and I love drawing the curtains and putting the lights on.
I did get quite a bit of reading done whilst I was in hospital and will show you what I have been reading next week.
Coco missed me and spent the two days I stayed in bed next to me snuggling. When I saw Little Man he wanted me to pick him up and give him a hug which I am now able to do because my hip has been fixed! I have my six week check up on December 3rd and then I will be able to drive again, although Eldest has my vechicle at the moment as he is doing some jobs on his!
DH had his Birthday in the middle of the week so everyone came to us on Saturday for a family dinner, which was a takeaway as I am not quite up to cooking for seven of us just yet. It was lovely to have everyone here, they came early and then went home early evening and I must admit I was quite tired by the end of it!
DH has been busy with events of course, the Finale of 100 years of Carnival in the village with a big firework display where 1000 people attended. He also did two weekends of County swimming events and one of our other local swimming club’s Ghoul in the Pool Open event. Next weekend we have nothing on so we will be getting some more de-cluttering done in our garage. I am still determined to get this job finished before Year End and also empty and tidy the attic too.
I cannot believe that it is November already? The months really do seem to fly by although with me being a little less mobile this month I am hoping that I will be able to get lots done at home. I have capitulated and bought our Christmas Cake, pudding and mince pies this year because although I have a few weeks before Christmas I do not want to be rushing around trying to get things done. I can do all that I normally do next year!
I have been buying Christmas Presents as I have seen things and have a few more things to get and then I am done! I have all our Christmas cards ready for us to write and need to wrap the presents and again it will be done. We have a few nice things to do during December and also seeing family and friends which is my favourite bit of the whole of Christmas so I am really looking forward to that. DH and I are going to a concert on December 5th ” Vivaldi by Candlelight” which I am looking forward to, we also have a day planned to go around the Christmas Market and see all the Christmas lights. DH has three Christmas Light Switch ons to do and the Presentation Night for the swimming club. We are taking the Children to see Santa on the Steam Train again which will be great, we have Youngest’s Birthday and also a Fun Gala for the swimming club too. It is going to be busy as always.
Christmas will be here before we know it!!! I am planning on doing a two step decoration set up this year rather than trying to do it all on one day, just so I can concentrate on getting things done properly. Our tree, we always have a real one, will be the last thing done at the beginning of December. It made be laugh looking at the TV films on Friday it was ALL Halloween and then Saturday the schedules were full of Christmas movies!! There did not seem to be any gap between the two!!!!!! I do love the Christmas movies and will be watching them when I have had enough of all the Horror movies!!!
DH does have another two day weekend swimming event on November 15th and 16th so I am going to spend that weekend in my sewing room getting some things finished! I will show you it all when I can.
Anyway I hope you lovely lot are all okay and will have a great week.
Hugs & Love, Susie & Coco xx
