Which means 5.5 weeks left of work 🙌🏼

I’ve nearly burnt all of my Christmas fragrance candle already, will need to buy some more.

NoWordForFluffy · 13/11/2017 07:44

I've got two reed diffusers rather than candles. We don't often burn candles these days! They'll be coming out soon though.

I like the tarts because I am impatient and change my mind about what I want to smell all the time!

Ah...we are overrun with Scorpios in here! 🦂🦂🦂

Happy birthday CBeebies!

I bought the Russian nesting dolls in the JL sale a couple of years ago, but have treated myself to nativity dolls so I can have Magi gradually making their way to the stable over the advent and Christmas period.

I realised yesterday that DD has got a party on the afternoon of 2nd. Now I have to decide whether we rush doing the tree in the morning or leave it until the Sunday! Arrgghhh! 🎄🎄🎄🎄

WreckTangled · 14/11/2017 07:15

Hmm I don’t know when we will get our tree this year. We go to a farm where they chop it down in front of you Smile

FridgeCut · 14/11/2017 07:17

WReck, so do we! I love it!

We are going on the 2nd, we have to go to a birthday party but dh knows we have to leave by 2pm to go and get our tree. It’s been scheduled since August and this invite came afterwards. We can’t go on the 3rd as we will be at the local theme park all day seeing Father Christmas etc.

WreckTangled · 14/11/2017 07:35

We can’t do the 2nd or 3rd as we’re going to Longleat and staying over so I guess it’ll be the weekend after? Oh I bought a tree skirt the other day! It’s a wicker one and was reduced to £9 in John Lewis!! I’ve hidden it in the shed dh hasn’t seen it yet Wink

FridgeCut · 14/11/2017 07:55

That sounds lovely!! I need to look for a tree skirt.

Dh did question why we weren’t going the last weekend of November but it’s just too early for a tree to last really well.
