We've had a small flurry of white stuff today (on dry clear ground) after a VERY frosty start. Yesterday was a slushy start as there was about 3cm of melting snow on my car, but it didn't last. But traffic is crawling (I think as much because there are a LOT of commuters who normally cycle in the area who aren't braving the elements this week and driving the cars they usually use only at weekends). So I am spending too long driving which leaves not enough time for everything else (and I'm sleeping badly). And stressed out trying to keep manic workloads, paying bills and household organisation, settle DD (bashed elbow which I may have to get xrayed tonight and missing her Dad) and distract myself from missing DH (he travels for work, and after 6 weeks of him home over Christmas, we are back into the "2 weeks here, 2 weeks in South Africa" cycle again 
).
So thoughts of Christmas are on the back burner (I had hoped to get to Boots before sale ends).
I DID hear that M&S had a last markdown last Fri though, so as I was very late taking lunch (basically, 15 mins to go to chemist and collect mending), I ran in to M&S next door to chemist and thought about a lovely handbag (60 to 15 and lovely, but too red a brown for me, I wanted more black/brown) but came away with a pair of jogging pants (13 to 3.75) and a long-line wine cardi (65 down to 24, but girl messed up scanning tag and scanned joggers twice, I only copped later at home as sometimes there have been amazing reductions at last minute so I learn to say nothing, but got both for 7.50!). Then ran back to office in sleety slush and worked like a demon for the rest of the afternoon.
Traffic was so bad Fri pm that city centre gridlocked - I had DH with me, au pair was already going to be babysitting and collects DD from afterschool club on Fri anyway, so we abandoned thoguhts of getting home and went for a pizza in town instead and a pint at our local (we'd both have fallen asleep at cinema, which had been original plan earlier in the week). So nice surprise at the end of the week.
