I can't quite believe it myself but next Sunday is Advent Sunday - Christmas Day is racing towards us at full throttle speed. Normally I decorate the house on Advent Sunday but next weekend is rather packed so, I am afraid, I've gone a week early! Today has been bright but cold and it didn't quite feel right but tomorrow is forecast to be a "batten down the hatches" type of day. Not only that but the TV is awash with daft Christmas films to get you into the mood! No pictures - I will take one tonight with the lights on. Just remember I am not some sort of interior designer!
Otherwise it has been a day of light housework - interspersed with a lovely treat. Wendy wanted some advice re the Artisan Apron that she is making (she had adapted the pattern to suit her slim and tall outline and needed a second pair of eyes) so cue two lovely coffees from Nigel and a mince pie - how apt!
On the crafting front I am running up a simple runner to put across the chest of drawers in the bedroom to give the varnished surface some protection - and to add yet more red of course! Tonight I will try to work towards finishing both that and some padded coat hangers. Either way I will be glued to my seat to watch Strictly at Blackpool. Having just booked some ticket to see the live w=tur with my friend Trish, I have just found out that Danny Mac is on the tour and am trying to persuade Wendy to join us!!
Well you learn something every day...didn't know Advent Sunday was in November!
