      (the girls tastefully decorated tree now looks like a drunken elf threw decorations at it and the cat is trying to look innocent.....we are not convinced lol)

  2. Belated greetings, Val. Hope you are enjoying the post-holiday slump. I think I prefer it when the hullabaloo is over and the real relaxing kicks in.

  3. Meant to add: are you familiar with Slinky Malinky? Your cat may have been taking lessons from him.

    1. Gosh that takes me back! a friend? of Hairy Maclary and crikey wasn't there a Scarface claw....at least the tree feller isn't scarface. I think I still know some of those by heart. I agree about enjoying the post holiday slump..you are right no mad guilty rushing about and worrying...just a nice glass of wine and a Loaf? Cake? of Panettone and some good Christmas movies and books...bliss

  5. Bit late for Merry Christmas but not for Happy New Year. Whole family came down with awful colds over Christmas so haven't been around for a few days. Rewatching Alaska through the seasons and thinking of you in that gorgeous place.

    1. Happy New Year Cath, Sorry you've all been poorly! My OH has the flu darn it..isn't that just the way..I'm trying to avoid sharing in his fun by gobbling industrial quantities of vitamin C ..well you never know.

from an old gravestone

If you hold your nose to the Grindstone
and you leave it there long enough,
Then soon you'll say
there's no such things
as brooks that babble
and birds that sing,
these three will all your world compose,
just you, the stone and your poor old nose.

(from memory so may not be word perfect)
