Christmas this year was mostly food with family. And madly writing fic. More food with family. And reading YT fic. And still more food with family.
Presents were moderate, but the weather was an unexpected gift: sunshine and blue skies, warmth and sunburn! (Okay, I coulda done without the sunburn, but now it's kinda faded to the usual brown.)
And tonight is dinner at the parentals with all the rellies. Wear nice, photogenic clothes, says mum last night on the phone. Apparently the uncle is coming with all his photography paraphernalia and there will be extensive photoage.
Incidentally, in spite of all the eating of the week, my weight is still steady in the 56kg range. No exercise, mind you, and it's gonna be horrible to go back.
I'm onto the binding for one of my two Christmassy table-runners. It took forever because I couldn't get the backing right, and kept on having to make adjustments. Now, what I intended to be the back of one table runner is going to be the front of another table runner. But I have discovered a nice and neat way to bind the edges!
Today is back-to-work day for me: today and tomorrow are work days, New Year's Eve is a 'company picnic day' by which they mean 'have a day off on us' and I'm not complaining!
No plans for NYE, should probably call up some friends and see if I can form a dinner party thingy - either at home or at the parentals'.
New Year's Day will be lunch with
saramund, her hubs, and her bubs. I'm looking forward to it!
Hope your Christmases were
white good!
