Tuesday 19 Decenber

Donna's frozen rose is lovely ,we have had freezing fog the last two days ,and it has turned cold ,I took my library books back this afternoon ,and posted some more cards and it was very cold,my ears were stinging ,and I have just waved Maurice off to work,and  I could see my breath ,he will work tomorrow night then three days off ,then ,yes he is working over Christmas!

Well the cards are done and posted,the tree dressed as you can see from the pictures,every thing wrapped phew,I started last evening after Maurice left at about five thirty ,I was just about done at nine thirty,with a break for some supper ,but when you think I have nine Grandchildren there is plenty to wrap!

You will also see,a (blurry picture )of the Santa sleigh ,that came around the other night ,it was the Rotary club again ,and the President was the man who knocked on our door to collect, he told us this year that the money was to go to  Diabetes and Dr Barnarnos this year ,I mentioned that we all had the collecting boxes when we were young ,and that I had seen one when we visited Bodsey house in the Autumn,he said the man that lives there is a Rotarian ,and was himself a Barnardo boy !so in spite of him having a hard start ,he has done well ,as so many of them have .

My son Derek is coming up from Dorset ,on Thursday night ,he will stay over ,and we will all meet up ,a lovely family get together ,well as many as are able ,so you can imagine I am getting excited .I will have to get the batteries charged up ,for my camera .So now I am going to have my supper ,So have a good evening every one With Love From ...

Thankyou Donna,for my graphics today .
