deadlines

xmas comes early when you have overseas packages to post. last shipping day to canada from the uk is friday (and even that is optimistic - last year's parcels arrived sometime in the new year despite religious observance of the post office decree).

i'm nearly there - as always i wish i had (a lot) more money and more time, but that is in itself probably the essence of life, so who am i to argue?

the lovely bit comes after the parcels are posted, and it is just us and the turkey. (and the wine and the whiskey and the cheese and the olives and the special cake-slices of nougat from italy and the cheesy xmas films and the new murakami novel ....)

i love christmas

mmm...I finally put the tree up. Despite the utter crap of my last few days, it's nice to turn it on, sip mulled wine, stare at the blinky things and nibble eggnog cookies...makes me feel all glory inside. Or maybe that's the wine...
There's just something about christmas...:)
