MARVELLOUS MONDAY

Good Monday morning to you all.

I hope you have all had a lovely weekend?

I'm feeling all virtuous as I sit here writing today's blog because I have finished all the children's Christmas shopping, and they are all wrapped and in their Santa sacks ready for the big day.  Well I say the big day, it's actually Big Day plus 1 because we go over on Boxing Day.  We did try and go on Christmas Day one year but to be honest it was all a bit overwhelming because they were so excited what with presents from Santa and Mummy and Daddy, there wasn't a spare bit of carpet to even walk on let along sit down on. Lol.  So we said we would always go over on Boxing Day as it would be a bit more relaxed.  

I haven't been this organised since my daughter was little!! Lol  

How are you all doing?  Are you all ready and prepared?  I just have a Dundee cake to make this week and that is all my prep finished too, apart from lunch on Christmas Day obviously.

  1. Hi Dawn & Karen nice to meet you Karen. I’m so jealous you have a craft shed. Hubby keeps saying they will get me one. Sadly funds don’t allow. Oh well, at least I can crsft.

    Hopefully catch your lives this week. I’m crafting my Christmas cards atm. Won’t be sending many due to the strike.

    Have a lovely day all xxx

  2. I’m usually really organised but this year my shifts fall over Xmas so I could well in working Xmas day. I won’t know until a few days before which is really annoying. With that in mind we will have Xmas just not sure when lol. Still making Xmas cards but people at work are buying them with funds going to charity so I don’t mind. Need to use my new foil plates but not had a chance yet. Getting ready for your live in a few mins. Nice to see another ‘live’ so to speak. Love Karen Keen xx

  3. Oh what a lovely blog Dawn. 😘 I’m not as organised as you are this year I still have one or two items to get for Christmas and then wrap up.
    Beautiful beautiful live today I must say and the purple did the card justice 💜. I adored the foiling on the black card it looked so rich. Simply gorgeous cards as always.
    Thank you for all the information too.
    Lovely to meet Karen today and hope she can fulfil her dreams.
