The kids are in bed, Mr Bucket is in bed too with the start of flu and I'm sitting here looking at the computer with just the Christmas tree decorations for company. It's actually quite nice.
I let the kids decorate the tree this year which was kind of hard for me as I've decorated the family tree since I was a kid (not even my brother or sister got a look-in). It's something I like to do as I like to get all the baubles and little treasures in just the right place (I know, control freak again).
It was hard for me not to interfere and move some of the baubles into better positions but I stopped myself and let them get on with it. The only thing I was really worried about is that a lot of the decorations are really old and from when I was a child (yes, really old!!!) and they might have broke them, accidentally of course.
But they didn't and they were really proud of themselves and the job they did.
And so am I.
Some of the blogs I follow have been showing Christmas songs that they love (yes Anne, I love Michael Buble too) so I thought I'd share one of my favourites.
I love this man's singing and this song always gives me that warm, fuzzy Christmassy feeling. Sam xx
Hello Sam,
ReplyDeleteSometimes it's nice to have a bit of peace and quiet. I love Perry Como's voice, my mum used to play his record (not cd, haha) every Sunday while she cooked dinner and drank Gin and Bitter Lemons. It's funny the things you remember.
Take care,
