Morning all, tis Friday time for
Well it has been a funny old week if I'm honest and sometimes life throws a few curve balls, I find given my personal history I'm a bit naughty in catastrophizing situations (walking worst case scenario), which is a really bad habit. I'm trying really hard to live in the here and now rather than dwelling on the past of or on making assumptions for the future. So here I am reflecting only on the last week before I get back into my world of being in the moment.
We got said 22 year old's digital graduation photos through recently, which I don't think I've shared (apologies if I have).
We've also received the last one as an actual framed photo in a lovely frame, I need to get some frames for them but they are really lovely.
We discovered last year that hubby loves making Christmas cake but hates decorating them in any way shape or form, so we've come up with a cunning plan, hubby makes the cake, I marzipan and ice the cake and said 22 year old decorates them, so he will be on with them in the next day or so.
We went out for our works do last week, it was a really lovely evening and a lovely meal and I think we scrub up OK don't we.
Here is the crew
from both ends of the table, including partners
We've enjoyed sitting in front of a toasty fire a few nights this week which has been lovely.
Now I've given these out to work colleagues I made these for a Christmas gift, a chocolate orange covered in maltesers with white chocolate on the same and some icing, I wrapped them in cellophane and handed them out. I genuinely struggled to find things to make on my pinterest board, everything seems to be food related.
This week has been a little mad, we've been in work for 3 days solid, working on creating 50 Christmas hampers, for families, the elderly and the disabled. It was an epic task spending a large amount of grant money to create a hamper that will provide a Christmas meal for people and the outpouring of positivity has been quite overwhelming if I'm honest and made all the hard work (and it was definitely hard work), worthwhile.
and then I find myself on Friday, Christmas Eve Eve as my sister likes to call it.
I hope you have a beautiful and blessed Christmas if you celebrate.
Hugs
