This week, I’ve been loving…
Christmas Trees
I have to admit I’ve never
felt this un-Christmassy so close to the big day. I don’t know what it is this
year – I’ve written cards, bought and wrapped presents, been to Carol
Services…I just don’t seem to have that Christmas spirit this year. However, it
has been nice seeing all the Christmas trees in neighbours windows and ours is
finally decorated, taking pride of place in the corner of our lounge. As
un-Christmassy as I feel, there’s nothing quite like being greeted by it’s
twinkly lights and pine-needle scent.
Time spent with friends
One of my favourite things
about the festive period is having the opportunity to catch up with friends I
don’t get to see very often. A lot of my closest friends have moved away from
our little hometown. Some haven’t gone too far, whereas others are living
thousands of miles away, on the other side of the world! But over the last week
some of them have journeyed ‘home’ and it’s been lovely having a proper
catch-up with them. I’m looking forward to seeing those who haven’t made it
back yet over the next couple of weeks.
Radio Times
Throughout most of the
year, I never buy Radio Times. I’ve not really any need for it as I can find
out all I need to from the good old Internet. But when Christmas comes around, it’s
tradition to pick up a copy of the Christmas edition. This week I’ve enjoyed
curling up on the sofa with my copy and a nice pink highlighter, marking all
the Christmas TV I’d like to watch. I think I may need to record some of it,
unless I spend the whole festive period in front of the box!
What has grabbed your attention this
week? I love hearing about people’s new discoveries and you may end up sharing
something that makes it onto my list next week!
