Here are the events that have stood out to me today.
* If you go shopping at Christmas time, it's good to go at 9am - there are usually lots of parks.
* Tell your kids BEFORE you go into the grocery store that they won't get any treats if they ask for anything.
* If you have a two year old, do not put chocolate decorations on the Christmas presents under the tree.
* It really makes you feel good about your own chaos if you talk to a friend who is more stressed out about Christmas than you are.
* If you take an hour to make a gift for your son's friend's mother, it means you don't get the ironing done for the day.
* I am feeling anxious because the final of Survivor is not up on Youtube yet. And yes, it's an addiction.
* This summer I have a thing for geraniums. I like their bright, cheery faces, and they remind me of my grandma. And they are red.
* Our mailman is always a bit grumpy at this time of year. I don't know why. I couldn't think of anything nicer than delivering large parcels to people.
* 5 more sleeps until Christmas Day!

Oh I LOVE geraniums, too... they transport my imagination to the Mediterranean... little villages with narrow cobbled streets and plaster homes with window baskets overflowing with red geraniums - not that I've ever been (yet), but the flowers take me there, somehow :o)
smile - I loved your post.
Hydrangeas are also becoming my new love. - Another my grandma always had at her backdoor along with red geraniums
Love Leanne XX
