About to head off to bed, still pretty noisy but it was a shit nights sleep last night and I am Mrs Post in the morning so hoping to do some sleeping.
I think the worst is over. I will tentatively say that although it has been crazy windy it has not felt that bad, certainly not in the league of some of the storms we had last year. The clock is down and the walls are shaking though, so there is every chance that I am getting more blase about it rather than it being tame.
I finished painting Dave’s cabin bathroom – second coat of gloss on the walls where the shower is going and a second coat of marine floor paint on the floor of the bathroom. It looks good. Fingers crossed it all dries before he is over next weekend – it is *really* cold in there and the first coat on the floor stayed tacky for ages. Other than that dash along the top trail to the cabin I have been in all day and not really very productive either. I had sort of plans to make gingerbread and help Scarlett with her secret santa for Jinty but didn’t manage either. I did make most of a crochet bag for my secret santa though so not entirely pointless. I also made lunch and dinner and bread and watched Kirstie’s Handmade Christmas.
And drank tea, 🙂
It’s actually been quite a nice hanging out in the static listening to music, watching festive stuff type of day. Davies made a couple of Christmas cards, Scarlett made a fimo decoration to top her candle. Vikki appeared late afternoon and stayed for a couple of hours. We watched Arthur Christmas as our advent DVD. It’s been nice. Very touched by how many people messages, text, rang, emailed etc to check on us – Rum folk and general friends, Made us feel most loved 🙂
