Bless, I think you must thrive on a certain level of stress. You are a great inspiration with all you've achieved lately.

Good going with the cookies, Maureen.

Diana, hope the new med works well. Enjoy your break now classes are finished.

So impressed with my med. It really targeted the problem and I shall take the whole amount, of course, to avoid a recurrence. So fortunate that I had some homemade yoghurt in the house, too.

DH has been great. He has finally decided to get involved more in the kitchen. He empties the dishwasher regularly now. During the last day or so, he has made, under supervision, oatmeal porridge, sandwiches and grilled cheese sandwiches. He wants to try more things. He is pretty proud of himself, and I am proud of him too. I like to think that if I am away or unwell, he can feed himself properly without eating out!

JDI

Shopping - I stayed home yesterday, and I need to finish Christmas shopping and also get some groceries. Still haven't heard anything definite about Boxing Day numbers, so will proceed with full number of guests in mind, except for perishables.

WHOOOOOOOOOOOO HOOOOOOOOOOOOO Maureen! That was a long list too.

Tried the cheese biscuits from BL! Yummy. Also wrapped a few more gifts, still have two, but some of the gift is downstairs.
Need to do that later.

Taking a break before I head into the bathroom, and guest room.

The Craft room is due after that!

Bushlady: You might be right! I do seem to do well when I am under a certain amount of pressure!

We are all doing so well that we've got to 10 pages, already! I think, with 10 more days to go until the end of the month (and year), we need a part 2, don't you? So, I am going to close this thread and start part 2.
