I am trying to sum up the energy to buy and then write my C cards. I leave for Sydney in 4 weeks time and have to have everything to do with 'That Word' done by then. I am considering only sending to friends who I rarely see, or people I want to keep in touch with and forget everyone else. Does that sound a bit Mrs Scroogey? I have already bought, wrapped and delivered presents for DD3 and her family, which was enough to propel me towards the wine cellar for medicinal help and I know once I arrive in Sydney, I will be straight into C stuff there. I do love that time of year, but things seem to be so out of control these days - I used to be happy with a couple of presents and my Dad's army sock filled with a pencil, notebook, tiny doll dressed as a fairy, a hankie, walnuts and a tangerine!! Oh, the excitement, I can remember it so well........
