Winter Decathloners!
I have been slowed down by a horrible cold, but at last I got the turn today. My wee boy was ill so the three of us had a house day, watching Elf, Christmas decorating, snoozing and just taking time out. I think we all felt the better of it. It always seems like a marathon or some such extreme sport, life, at this time of year. Laurie Colwin called women 'winter decathloners' and I hear her through the years, indeed I do.
Love to you all and I have not commented much but I have really enjoyed all your own individual, thoughtful, stylish and heartfelt Christmas preparations and rituals. I know its going to be a magic Christmas! Jxx

ReplyDeleteI'm glad your feeling much better. We don't even have any decs up yet and have been trying to finish decorating the lounge - something that we meant to have done ages ago but time seems to just whizz by at this time of year. Love your frosty pictures, Take care. xx
