Last minute flinging of cash at tills yesterday! got to grab some mince pies on Monday! several gifts to be wrapped! and THEN I'm done! Yes, I'm "ready for Christmas"! AND, further more, I've broken up from work! yayy!!
Lads have broken up from school, one with the last remains of a heavy cold, and one just coming down with one - this happens EVERY year! about 5 yrs ago, we spend Christmas morning in the hospital with one very sick child badly dehydrated and my BROTHER at our house cooking OUR turkey dinner! thats got to be the worst we've had!
No. we've had worse!
My late MIL sadly died on Christmas Day 1992, and my late Father took ill on a Christmas night and died a little after in the January.
This year our other brother's Father, John, (my stepfather, removed due to divorce!) has been taken very poorly and is too, ill, in a hospital and we hope very much that he is recovered and able to come home for Christmas, at least.
Always an emotional time of year, all the more sew with health and family concerns - I wish everyone a healthy and happy crafty Christmas, especially so for those with their own similar concerns too.

Update: stepfather-removed-due-to-divorce DID come home in time for Christmas and was reported to be in good spirits. either that or he FOUND the spirits?
