HAPPY DECEMBER!
That feels super strange to type, and super strange to say aloud! But it is true, December is upon us and Christmas day is merely weeks away. Last year I created and begun a Christmas series called 'Snippets Of Christmas' and I really enjoyed it! I found myself digging out my camera much more and preserving the smaller, finer details of Christmas often forgotten.
Our house is gradually, and I mean reeeaaaaal gradually becoming festive. We have lots of candles, plaques and accessories dotted around but we are yet to put up the tree (or green scratch post in our ever so cheeky fur-babies eyes). After we finished the decorating we treated ourselves to a scrumdiddlyumtious hot chocolate, and chocolate muffin from McDonalds!
One of the candles we are burning is the scent 'Candy Cane Lane' by Yankee Candle, it is a subtle fragrance, so it takes a while to kick in, but oh my - after a while you feel as though you are in a, well... Candy Cane Lane.
Although i'm giving it a good old shot, admittedly I am not really feeling Christmas this year, not quite yet anyway! This past week I have been unwell pretty much everyday, I have had stomache pains that have had me doubled over, a outbreak out of no-where in hives - all over my hands and arms (still there *shudder*) a cold, and I even managed to dye myself and the bath smurf blue with a craft fair bath bomb. Its safe to say im not having the best of luck this month!
Ailments aside, we've got lots done this week! Theres been plenty of Christmas shopping done, a smidge of wrapping and a whole lot of card writing. All in-between putting up decorations with my Nanna at the care home and helping my father-in-law set up his Christmas villages.
Here's to week two of Christmas!
Here's to week two of Christmas!
And perhaps to not turning myself smurf blue again.
