we will get to it ooak, I hope
I was just thinking today of all the money I've spent on Christmas decs. over the years, wish i could have some it back 
we didn't get around to putting up our big tree last year, I think we just get a bit overwhelmed by all the family birthdays.
you could compromise with your daughter by putting up a little one maybe??
that's the thing, dragging it all out of the shed only to put it back in a few weeks- that's what my OH says too
Afternoon Deb
No time to decorate the house here. We do have a Christmas wreath on the front door and a small iron Christmas Tree with a candle on the top on a side table in the loungeroom but that is the extent of it for us this year at least.
Love your Christmas trees Flashie - you can decorate for us all you and your OH are so good at it lol.
Glad you are enjoying the calendar Flashie - I had not clicked on the clock 
Addicted to the Christmas ball smashing though 
Long day yesterday as we had some filming going on in the office after hours yesterday ..... I was there from 2pm to midnight ..... nothing to eat and it was freezing last night so a colleague and I stopped at Maccas on the way home and had - wait for it .............. hotcakes at midnight lol.
Was difficult to get up this morning and get back to the office but could not be avoided.
Early night for me tonight methinks.
Did you find the screwdriver Deb?
I peeked and found you did Deb
It is lovely!
We used to have an old stick phone in our old place - still used it. It went the way of the ladder and the wheelbarrow (along with a heap of others things) though 
Evening Deb 
Frustrating day today - had to lodge some documentation by a deadline today and the computer at the office spat the dummy
Arrrrrgh!
Finally managed to get it sorted, sent all the documents and received a receipt for them with the comment that it usually takes them five months to complete the business associated with them .....................blaaaaaaaaaaah
Anyway that was today. Tomorrow I am taking the day off come hell or high water - have a long-standing appointment with the hairdresser and if I don't get there tomorrow it will be well into January before she is back from her holidays. I might have had to buy a violin by then
Hope it has cooled down at your place and you can hit the shops tomorrow lol
Going to put the feet up and watch Restoration Man now and chill out.
Catch up tomorrow hopefully
