Bah, Humbug!
Plan I am so NOT going to Oxford Street for some store-induced Christmas spirit. No way. I have a tree up in the living room and that's that. I am going to stay at home and do work. Yes. You heard me right. I have a great trip planned mid-Jan. So, I need to get cracking NOW in order to enjoy my trip.
Reality So, there I was- not planning to get into any of the year end festivities at all. Unfortunately, everybody ELSE is making plans and the phone keeps ringing.
The devil of consumerism comes-a-calling and I have succumbed. I am going away for the weekend with friends who for all intent and purpose are going to attack the boxing-day sale with great gusto.
If glee and guilt can mix, I have one heady cocktail in my hand now.

Count: Thanks for dropping by. What an honour.
Jo: Yeah, I am weak and have succumbed.
KT: Poor dear. Many hugs. This is not a good time to be having electrical problems as all the electricians will refuse to come or ask astronomical prices! I just sorted some problem with my electrical connections so I know! Had some nightmares with that. Will tell you when I see you soon.
