:hallo: Jan and all to come

I haven't even given a thought to X-mas yet - it seems like it is still a million years away :upset:

I had an interesting early morning, to say the least... Mrs. T had to fly up to Johannesburg for a couple of meetings early this morning (she was out of the house by 5.15 a.m.). Which left me to sort out the youngest cub's plait... All I can say is: there is a strong case to be made for tomboy haircuts... I did manage to do it to her satisfaction.... Eveeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeentually...

Morning Army, Hi Jan and Tips:hallo:! My little man is driving me crazy about Christmas too. We are not ready to move in a big real tree till I get a bit more order in here. I did get one of those little artificial desk top trees that he could decorate. He's happy-he keeps carrying it around and asking me where he should put it! It's smack in the middle of the living room floor at the moment. He was dancing around it last night. Did I ever mention my son is VERY hyper:H? Good job on the plaits Tips! I'm a girl and I suck at doing hairstyles!

Morning lovelies.
I am not sure how I feel about Christmas yet. Never really liked it, but I feel I should. Maybe I should start some new traditions so I can make it good again?

Good morning Jan, Expat, Starts, Oney-bint and Tips and to all who drop by later.

Tips - way to go with the hair-do. Having boys, I never had to deal with that thank goodness.

Jan, stick to what you said about putting up the tree. I'm sure he's so excited about Christmas because of the great memories he has of last year.

Starts, what Oney says about Christmas. Relax, chill out and stuff yourself. I always love a walk in the country after dinner on Christmas day. It's a tradition with us. Unfortunately we never have snow at Christmas but I love the family walk anyway.

Oney I expect your kids are looking forward to Christmas as much as you are. Have you got your tree up yet? Ours goes up two weeks before Christmas and down a week after New Years. Lots of people decorate from the first of the month tho'.

Ex - it takes a while to get the boxes and stuff sorted out. You'll get through it eventually.

No sparkly pics today. I took a quick look at the Undies thread. Such a tragedy.

Off to walk Freddie in a bit. Wishing you all a peaceful, productive day. Catch up with you later.
