Today we are mostly ......

Cutting out! I've spent a wonderful morning cutting out number games while listening to the rehearsals for the Nativity play :) I'm sorry to go on about it, but I just LOVE this job :)

My day starts at 6.00am as I stagger around finding clothes before dashing to the field to feed the ponies. Then it's back home to make breakfast for the children, feed the chickens, rabbits and cats, ditch the muddy clothes and jump in the shower. Then I make our lunches, send the son off on his bus and go to school with the daughter. The following three hours are filled with maths, english and reading and of course school production rehearsals. I soooo hope things continue to be this good, although I am a realist and accept that the first few weeks are bound to be the best as I slowly get used to the routine. But I don't ever recall having a job that has me leaping out of bed with such anticipation :)

Well, that's enough of me wittering on in a smug way, now I have to get on with my Christmas preparations, as it is, after all, December and I have a million things to do now. I'll be working my way around all your lovely blogs as so many people are sharing such gorgeous pictures of their preparations and lovely decorations. Take care all :)

Sounds exciting. My 3 year old is only at nursery part time so was given the part of a sheep in the nativity play. She must be a fast learner (or difficult to keep quiet) as she has now been promoted to inn keepers wife. She's excited.

I've been doing some catch-up reading on your blog. As always you leave me feeling breathless and in need of a nap. I wish I could borrow just a pinch of your energy!

Give Max a pat for me - I'm sending good thoughts his way.

Well done for your daughter, Jasmine, that's quite a big part :)

Nice of you to drop by ICQB, I've used up all my energy now! Max is having a purr and cuddle on the bed at the moment :)

Hi Yarrow; Thanks for leaving a comment at my blog. I realize now that I've bounced onto yours a number of times from Codlins and Cream 2--and hadn't left a comment--a habit I'm trying to correct. I enjoy reading about and seeing the things that others create--your felted and embellished sweaters are lovely and unique.
Your pen name conjures to mind the wild plant with its aromatic leaves, as well as the colorful hybrids I've raised from seed in a better climate.

I am so happy for you! You sound busy and overflowing with energy for it all! Wishing you a lovely December~

Oh thank you for the lovely comments, MM and Tammie Lee.

Yarrow is my favourite herb, MM, even the hybrids are pretty, although the wild is, for me, the best :)
