At least I got all the gifts that had to be mailed out, now just for ours. Thanks for all the work you've done for keeping us linked and for drawing people together in a like cause!

Now I have my golf equipment, another tv (and I don't use mine anyway!) and other boxes/bags dumped by the door. Definitely looking forward to the 27th December when we get our house back, and I can get back to business/study/crafting.

Now I'm like the proverbial swan - all serene looking on top and paddling like mad beneath. However, Christmas will come and go whether I'm ready or not - it inevitably does every year. I remember seeing and admiring your framed calendar before. Making a calendar layout is such a lovely idea. Have a wonderful week and a very Merry Christmas.

I sprawl way more than you do with gift wrap and take over the coffee table across the room up here for that kind of thing. but, the bulk of mine are wrapped I started at the end of last week and then felt better about the whole thing. I don't really have much to do left.

I always do my wrapping on the floor, preferably with a cat helping to sit on the paper so it doesn't roll back onto the tube. . . I keep thinking that I have more time than I actually do "oh yes, you have LOTS of time, don't worry!" Then I realize exactly how much time I have and get into a bit of panic mode! <br /><br />Wishing you all the best for a wonderful Christmas, Lindart #27Lindarthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02797196616629018678noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-218645565952627143.post-65158536781134454812018-12-19T15:12:19.182+00:002018-12-19T15:12:19.182+00:00Great desk, sorry to hear your planned wrapfest ha...Great desk, sorry to hear your planned wrapfest hasn't worked out the way you wanted.

Mind you, some of the boxes are so large, I couldn't do it on my desk even if I wanted to. Happy wrapping and Merry Christmas, Julia!

Panic now for all the things I still have left to do! This weekend will be spent delivering presents, I think.

Maybe you’ve got gremlins or borrowers - but they usually take stuff and hide it rather than leave it out on show! We are having our usual quiet time at home and I don’t have any wrapping to do these days thank goodness - not my favourite thing - I’ve never been much good at it! I have decided after all to cook a turkey dinner though, mainly so I have a nice carcass afterwards to make the most delicious soup. I can’t think where this whole year has gone, the time has gone so quickly.<br /><br />Happy WOYWW,<br />Shoshi #13Shoshihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00028185699225457125noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-218645565952627143.post-21650697865985733572018-12-19T08:05:24.088+00:002018-12-19T08:05:24.088+00:00I've been playing carols for fiord weeks now a...I've been playing carols for fiord weeks now and it's still a surprise that there's only six days until the main event!
