As I tick off the days in December I'm also feeling a little smug, unusual for me in the lead up to Christmas. I usually first hit the shops on the 23rd and wrap at midnight on the 24th. But look at this....
All the Australian gifts bought, wrapped and in my husband's suitcase. I just hope he doesn't bring any of them back.
Of course there's still a bit on the to-do list and I'm making a new one every day.
A trip to the hairdresser is definitely overdue but I'm most excited about finally getting around to having my knives professionally sharpened. What is it about this time of year that makes us all try to finish everything we didn't quite get to all year?
Top of the list on Monday is to let you know who's won my little giveaway - there's still time to enter... Good luck.
Knife sharpening - something I've always thought is a good idea. I might add that to my list (as if it needs anything else!)
ReplyDeleteYour advent calendar looks gorgeous.
You've inspired me, To Do list has made it out of the platic wrapping.......now to actually fill it (I think I'm in denial, may fill entire page........!)
ReplyDeleteLOVE that wrapping paper:)

ReplyDeleteNow, Ann. What is going on?! I mean, seriously. You are way too organised. I saw the top photo and thought "Oh, that can't be Ann's". And it was. Hmm, you're spurring me on to get organised. This weekend. Watch out, Mr PB. Oh, and is Mr VL posting or hand-delivering the presents? If the latter, we'd love to see him ☺. J x

ReplyDeleteHow often do you sharpen your knives? I sharpened my knife for the first time ever. That was about 6 months ago now and I'm itching to do it again. How often is too often?
ReplyDeleteI'm loving your advent calendar! And your Christmas wrapping paper are so lovely! Enjoy the week ahead, Kellie xx
ReplyDeleteThat's the loveliest advent calendar! Any chance it's available online somewhere, I wonder?
ReplyDeleteI love "to do" lists. Even seeing yours, gives me energy.
