Fiona's Quiet Life

It is not that i don’t want to blog, and am in fact being gently nagged to do it but, i have become addicted to play­ing treas­ure mad­ness on facebook..nothing gets don that can’t be done in the time it takes to regen­er­ate some strength to dig some more,

Well my mother always said “be care­ful what you wish for, it might come true”…and boy was she right this time. I love snow and wanted a white Christmas.

Christ­mas eve in my street

…an unusual thing this close to the town centre and the tidal Clyde, well we got plenty, this was not a prob­lem for me as i didn’t need to go out in it but the rest of the coun­try seems to have come to a stand­still. still go snow but it seems to be melting.

so the Lon­don con­tin­gent , were to come up on Christ­mas eve , then they couldn’t come , then they could , then they couldn’t, then they went to the sta­tion but JJ (very aut­istic) got spooked by some­thing so they went home and had Christ­mas day there, and finally arrived yes­ter­day (26^th)…glad they turned up as fridge full to bust­ing. and i had bul­lied builders.….….….yes they are still about the place.….…..into fin­ish­ing the walk-in ward­robe in the room JJ is occupying.

Christ­mas day was just per­fect, i got up late , sat on comfy sofa, listen­ing to car­ols. had light lunch, opened some presents,.….

New bird feeder

.new bird feeder from him upstairs.…..who hung out of his window

him upstairs …and dog in hat

to wish me happy Christ­mas when i went out to hang it from tree, .….. made a full Christ­mas din­ner, tur­key and all the trim­mings, and watched daft films all day, small boys phoned in the morn­ing and sang to me over the phone, and older grandsons

skyped

talked on skype in the after­noon, what more could any­one ask for.

it is now 27^th, they are all out and it is peace­ful, i spent a nice after­noon at an engage­ment party.….wedding on beach in Israel in august , look­ing for­ward to that.
