The tree is up!!
Saturday morning was spent cleaning and washing paintwork, the furniture was moved and hoovered behind and everywhere was clean and sparkling. Time to put up the tree :-). Hubby had been busy in the front garden clearing the creeper from the front of the bungalow in the morning and after lunch he went up into the loft and brought down the boxes of decorations. Assembling the tree is a two man job and I like him to sort the plugs out for the lights, then I do the decorating, I like to do this by myself, I know where things go so he just lets me get on with it. All the boxes were put back into the loft and a quick hoover of all the bits soon got the lounge tidy again. During the evening I finished writing all the cards and stuck stamps on ready for posting tomorrow.
This morning I made a Christmas present and wrapped a few up, I will finish that job tomorrow, just need a few bits and bobs. My parents had invited us for Sunday lunch, it was delicious, why is it that food always tastes better when someone else has cooked it? We came home stuffed full with 2 ready plated dinners for tomorrow, another no cooking day :-)
My daughter in law rang this afternoon to invite us to go with them to a Brass Band Concert at Harworth Church, it was a wonderful evening, they played lots of Christmas songs and carols and everyone had a jolly good sing. There were refreshments of tea and coffee with hot mince pies during the interval included in the ticket price of £5:50 each. We all thoroughly enjoyed it and it's finally started to feel like Christmas. Lesley you missed a treat xx
Not sure what our plans are for tomorrow, we will decide in the morning.
Thank you for popping by.
Take care
