1. How is it only 10 days to Christmas? Wasn't it a full month just a minute ago? I felt so organised just the other week - well ahead on my cards, several gifts already purchased - and now all of a sudden it is sneaking up and I'm way behind on everything! I don't feel Christmassy at all yet, which isn't helping. Must get a grip and work out what I haven't done yet and get on with it. Like actually buying some stamps so I can post my non-local UK cards, which have been ready and waiting, stampless, for ages now.
2.I seem to have missed a lot of birthdays lately, so anyone who's had a birthday in the last couple of weeks - I hope it was a good one.
3. We're dropping like flies in work at the moment - I was the only one in my team today! Our attic was like the Marie Celeste. I swear, we didn't have this many people off at once even when swine flu was in full swing last year. I've still got my cold, as well - can't seem to shake it off. Roll on spring, eh!
4. At least it's been a bit warmer again lately. I'm not seeing as much of Macavity now the weather has improved, so he is clearly feeling perkier - less inclined to huddle up indoors, at least. They are forecasting more snow to come, though, so better make the most of the warm while it lasts.
5. I took a couple of days off work and decorated my bedroom last week, did rather a nice job too, if I do say so myself. Can't quite summon up the motivation to tidy everything away again after, though, so all my junk is still piled up in the spare room. Must get it all squared away before my Christmas house-guests arrive! My excuse is that I'm still feeling a bit poorly with this cold, so that in the evenings all I want to do is flop in front of the telly and not bother with much of anything. Fingers crossed it shifts soon, because I'm getting really fed up of it. Christmas hols can't come soon enough...you know, except for the not being ready part...

Hope you're feeling better soon! Hope you all are. Good to hear Macavity is feeling more like wandering around again like his old self.

We had a freak weather moment today. I would have a agreed with you over the warmer weather this morning, right up to the point it went very very dark, the wind kicked up, and there was the mother of all rainstorms that seemed to merge effortlessly into a snowstorm. When I went back to my car after work everything was pretty much frozen, including the door. It may be a little chilly here now :/
