Well, we just about had time to eat the turkey (chicken, really) before winter came. We woke up to a White (rather than Black) Friday this morning, and the snow has been keeping up all day.

Perhaps it’s because I am energised by cold weather but I love it. It has immediately woken up the Christmas spirit in me (not that it takes much to wake it up, but still) and I am positively raring to start baking cookies, decking the halls, wrapping the presents…

Mind you, before I get down to doing any of that—especially the wrapping—I actually have to *make* the presents, and that’s where I am lagging slightly behind. As in, I haven’t done anything yet. I have been sidetracked with my digital Christmas scrapbooking kit, which is now nearly finished, and with finding a good e-download selling programme, which I have now found.

The good thing, though, is that I can use the papers and stuff from the kit to make cards and at least some of the presents (the paper-based ones). It’s just a question of finding the time to do it all…
