Good morning all from Glasgow, where it is 6°C.
Happy Birthday, Rosesandlilac. That's a shame that you had to buy yourself a present and cake. 😪
Your pendant sounds lovely.
Those houses are so cute, GM,
Yesterday was extremely busy and I didn't get a minute to catch my breath, (didn't have any in the first place) between opening up the parcel depot to store all DD's family gifts (at least her home is tidy), and feeding everyone.
D?D always makes up a hamper of goodies for me. She brought it yesterday, to get it out of the way, but couldn't understand why I burst out laughing.
She had bought me a bottle of my favourite Irish cream liqueur, which is hard to source, unaware that that I had made up a hamper fir her, which included the same liqueur. 😉
Today is the joint PTA/ Parish fundraising Coffee morning, where the raffle will be drawn for the signed Dr Who script. I do not plan to attend it, because the film maker is running the show. I do not wish to engage with her.
It looks like we have raised roughly £20,000 since June for the Renovation fund. Not bad for a committee of eight.
The Parish Priest was surprised, when I said I wasn't going to Mass today nor attend the Coffee morning..
He thinks all is well between us, it is not. The curate never said a word to me last night. He owes my family and I an apology for the mess he has contributed to. I'm not holding my breath.
However, the chair of the Parish Council spoke to me. She is a former colleague from our days on the Local Authority IT steering group and an authority on Internet safety.
She commended me for everything I had done and wants it raised at the Parish Council, in the hope of raising awareness disseminating information Safeguarding protocols.
Today, I need to catch up on all the present wrapping, which wasn't done, due to the Safeguarding issues. The P.P. wanted me to come and check the permissions today I declined, it will be on my terms.
Anyway, I am still unwell and want to ve able to enjoy Christmas,
It is a big event in our family, both religious and family, however, last Christmas, I spent a week in bed, I do not want a repeat performance.
The bed will be changed, the freezer delved into for dinner (probably salmon en croute) the spare room is chaotic with gifts and wrapping paper everywhere.
DD and SiL always stay at Christmas, despite living only ten minutes away. 😂 I need to get it cleared.
I wish you all a pleasant Sunday and best wishes to all, who are struggling.
Hurrah!
We probably know each other! They say Sheffield is the largest village
