And so this is Christmas...

I'm not really in the Christmas spirit this year. I didn't buy any presents for anyone until yesterday.

I knew when I got down to Tassie (that's where I am) that I'd probably have some spare time on my hands to get presents for the family. And I did. I drove Bruce's (my stepfather's) awesome ute into town and got everything I needed in about 2 hours. See photo of the ute. I really like driving it. I think I'd be good on a farm. (not that my parents live on a farm - they're on the beach)

Now I have to wrap things. Putting that off also.

I'm just hanging out at my Mum's house alone today. Mum is still at work. Bruce is at work too. Sophie's gone to Monique's. Soon I will wrap presents and start to make the Pannacotta with berries and jelly that I am going to attempt for tomorrow. I have never made pannacotta before. With 2 layers! Exciting. I will post photo's if it turns out well.

Sophie and I dyed my hair the other night. Just put a bright red chunk in the side. SO punk. ha. Yeah, I quite like it. I wonder how long it will be before I am sick of it... Also see photo. It's been ages since I had anything bright in my hair.

Harriet the miniature dachund is here with me today. Everywhere I go, she goes. Here is a photo of her in her basket in the study as I write this blog. (and another picture I took of her this morning)



She's pretty cute. And old. And totally deaf. Can't hear a thing.

It just started raining. Nice. I love the rain.

OK.... well I guess I should get started on this wrapping and the dessert.

Hi Mum. (mum knew all about my drunken Meredith. From this blog I assume)

Merry Christmas readers.
