Well it us now obvious Flash Harry and his parents will not be calling, to chat in the garden , but needs must .
They were to visit his other Nanny , his Mummy’s mother.
It is sad but we must stick to rules.
Of course I had to get Desk Diaries as little presents ,!!!could be out of date by the time they get them!
Not got the right colour of thread for some hand sewing ,so it will have to wait ,only me here so no matter .
A little alteration to loose covers for the suite .
I have booked a slot for Tesco delivery in Jan, just a few things as yet to secure the slot.
Son is shopping on Weds, so if I need anything for Christmas (like chocolates! )
he will get them .
Suddenly it has crept up on me! It does this every year, loads of time then here it is!
I feel for those not lucky enough to have inner resources ,I know I shall be looking back ,remembering our first married Christmas ,me with Hyperemesis
,sick morning noon and night with my first baby ,the one who shops for me now .
Also the next one when my Mum died ,and the one in 1964 when we were all packed up to go to Belgium in January ,the one when Lesley Ann Downey was abducted from the fairground near our house.
The Police searched all the houses round about,moved the coal from the coalsheds we had to seek permission to emigrate .Boxing Day.
Some very happy ones in Belgium with another English family from North of England ,the gatherings with daughters in law and son in law and two grandchildren .Ten of us ,my husband loved it all.
And this year an entirely different one, but I am really interested to see how it goes.
Hope everyone is well and is not too disappointed by the altered plans ,what must be done, must be done.
So Goodnight and take care ,we will get through this ,not unscathed but hopefully with a better appreciation of the simple things in life ,that can only be a good thing .
Viktoria.
