Preparing for Christmas a little late this year
Owing to health reasons it doesn't seem like Christmas to me I have not had that excitement of visiting Murcia to look round the shops. No making of Christmas cake or Christmas pudding or even mince pies, but the mince pies may be made tomorrow.
Perhaps I can get someone to lift the decorations out of the cupboard and then the Christmas tree can go up, with the tree up and the lights twinkling it might 'beginning to feel like Christmas' as the song goes. The outside trees may be light free this year though, mainly because the dirt track to my house is at long last being laid with tarmac and the dust the workers are making is choking. They will probably only take Christmas day off and be back at work the next day so I won't have a dust free Christmas week. Only waited about 20 years for this road, perhaps the town hall have decided I am a good resident and have paid all my rates!
At least all my Christmas cards were made throughout the year and have been dispatched to the UK at a cost I might add. Making your own cards increases the postal costs as they are usually heavier. Will have to bear this in mind for next year.
