Friday 15th December - a fairly static day

 I woke early this morning, toooo early, like 4.30 am. The milkman? Maybe. I don't remember hearing him, but our bedroom is at the front of the house, and he stops outside our window to deliver to the neighbours on either side as well as ourselves.

We could get our milk much more cheaply from the supermarket,  but while we can we'll keep Gary the milkman (I've never once seen him in all the years he's been delivering here!) going. It's not just about us; I think he provides a very important service to the many older people who live in this road.

Anyway, having woken up so early I was feeling pretty droopy today. I did manage to sort through various boxes and bags in which I had stashed, and then forgotten about, earlier Christmas present purchases. 

After that I spent most of the rest of the day lying about on the settee. Hence a meagre 500 steps on the step counter so far, and it's unlikely to climb much higher before bed time.

Ah well, it's not as though I had some high powered or important job to do!

I finished a bit of knitting for this coming week's crafts, and have given some consideration to which paper craft I'll post. As for baking, I thought I had chosen the recipes, but then I tripped across a really interesting idea, which I shall try out tomorrow!

This evening I completed all the written cards; the writing, addressing and stamping al ready to go.

I did catch myself putting a card into an envelope and beginning to stick the flap BEFORE I'd written the greeting; I hope that was the only time!
