all done
all orders for Christmas posted (thank you Catherine x)
time this afternoon for my girls
the last month has been a little hectic, our rented house is just not big enough for all of us and my business.
i cannot remember the last morning when i have not opened my eyes and thought - ack parcel packing!
this morning i practically sprang out of bed, sang in the shower and wrapped the last seven orders with glee
done and dusted.....
so this afternoon i turned my attention to my two beautiful girls x
they have both felt rather neglected lately - sick of hearing me wailing from the dining room about lack of time/brown paper/sanity
so we hopped over to their most favourite walk
it was covered in thick frost in some places
and the sunlight was beautiful
all that can be heard is the whippets running through the trees, frost crunching under paws
and the sound of the waves crashing on the beach opposite
pure bliss
a couple of hours later and home to a little bit of crafting and catching up with programmes on the radio four website
now it is starting to feel a little like Christmas x

Isn't it just wonderful to feel that weight being lifted from your shoulders?
Your photos of the sun peeking through is beautiful...and your girls, of course!
it looks like a wonderful walk! and while you have felt overwhelmed by all the parcels it must mean that the business is a sucess!!
As always, stunning photographs, and your description of the accompanying sounds make them all the more gorgeous.
I love the new header picture too. :-) x
Doesn't everywhere look wonderful with the frost. That looks to be a super walk for the girls - and you of course. (Love the wellies)
Have a super Christmas in your new environment and look forward to 2008 with glee!

I sooo know where you are coming from! I'm almost there, a couple of more deliveries to do and some sewing for pressies and then it's onto the real Christmas stuff, icing the cake, making mountains of mincepies, and just generally slowing down a bit, bliss!
Really hope you enjoy your first Christmas up north, it'll be magical. We're heading up your way in Feb as we've got a wedding on Orkney on a beach......! Would be lovely to meet you and have a good blether over a cuppa! Oh and meet all your animals!
Off to decorate the Christmas tree!

What a heavenly walk! I'm sure your girls appreciated their time out with you! All you have to do now for the holidays is to ENJOY! =)
Hooray for being able to relax now! Well done :)
What a festive scene and you got to enjoy it properly too. Sounds like you deserve a good rest and enjoy battening down to hatches and opening the plonk! Have a fantastic Christmas and enjoy a beautiful New Year up there.

I'm so glad it got to you and you're now all finshed and can rest and enjoy Christmas. It just give you a warm feeling knowing that it's all done and dusted and that you did it.
I felt the same way when I put the last carrot nose on the very last snowman peg and wrapped him up with his 5 other little friends lol
Now it's time for Christmas I thought.
Have a magical time.
Lots of love and hugs. x

Hooray, all finished!
Now you can have a nice cup of tea and a very well deserved rest (from packing anyway)
It looks so beautiful where you are - it's really warm here! no frost at all. I am very jealous of your frost.
Have you bought pressies for all your animals - are they excited??
