Friday

 Good morning.  It's another very chilly morning with a bit of a frost so I am hoping it signals another lovely, sunny day.

Christmas is one more step nearer.  Yesterday I bought this year's Jacquie Lawson Advent Calendar.  I think I've bought it every year now since they first started so it is very much part of my countdown.  Already there are games to play so it will certainly liven up lockdown.

Beth came round for lunch and then we assembled two more shelf units so my first task of the day is to get more stuff off the floor and onto the units.  Definitely on the last lap now, thank goodness.

Slimming World on Zoom was good.  There were eight of us will more coming next week.  Some of the Thursday people went to the last face to face meeting on Wednesday evening but will be with us on Thursday next week.

Today I have two chats scheduled!!
The first is with my friend, Jackie, this morning and as I haven't seen her since before my holiday, we have a lot to talk about.
The second is with Dad because the web cam arrived yesterday and we want to check it works.  That one should be quite short.

The rest of the day will be filled with the usual - washing, drying and ironing, tidying the house for the cleaners and carrying on with sorting things out.  On second thoughts, I won't start on the garage this morning, I will wait until the cleaners come and then I can get out of their way by disappearing to the garage.
There's plenty to do, anyway!

Take care and have a great day.  xx

    1. Well, it's a professional company and it's work that they cannot do at home. The come all masked up and I keep out of their way. In first Lockdown, I was surprised when they still turned up the first week but it was fine and they were very careful. I felt 'safe', if you know what I mean.

  2. When I read your post I was confused by the sentence which read Screenshot Beth came round for lunch. The when I opened it fully I saw the picture and understood.

  4. I have two Advent calendars so far this year - the Jacqui Lawson one and a Mindfulness one. I usually make my own but haven't bothered this year ... but there's still time!

    I hope your Dad can get the webcam working and it improves the sound on a zoom call for him.

    1. I have the Lawson one and an advent candle. It's a lovely tradition, isn't it?
      The mindfulness one sounds interesting.

    1. It's lovely, isn't it and, being interactive, there's lots of things to do or see behind each bauble. I love her calendars.
