A jolly week

Two lunches out: one with my oldest - but younger than me - friend and one with the women's group from Zac's.

After our Christmas lunch at the local carvery

Amazingly that didn't stop me from getting my one stone sticker at Slimming World, where we played a sort of lottery game that was such fun that I did it again with the women's group. But Allison had run out of certificates.

Not so good was the fact that both granddaughters have had ear infections that have resulted in perforated ear drums.

Anything else? I've been taking it easy and Husband has done all the cooking this week, which has been rather nice. Other than that I've written Christmas cards, posted Christmas mail and done a lot of online ordering. My good plans for shopping locally flopped out of necessity. 

Next week I intend to spring into action, get the cleaning done, the decorations up and the shopping finished. No, really I do.
