Dear little deer....

Look what I got today.......


It's Santa's little helper... I purchased this from Michele at COWBOYS & CUSTARD on Sunday to make me feel better & it arrived today.... excellent service!! She also included a card which I really liked on her blog but couldn't afford it so thanks again Michele.




























See how lovely he looks on my mantlepiece.........









You can just see my other deer which is made from pink flock..... there's a red one the other side of the candle holder. They're supposed to be for Christmas but I think if you like something you should be able to look at it all year round.









I would love to say that this made me feel brighter but it didn't.... I just can't seem to shake this off. Normally when I feel down it only last a few days but I just feel grumpy all the time!!! Another day off doing housework today but I did manage to get the sewing machine out for an hour.


Not sure why I feel like this.........could it be Christmas??? Work??? Lots of changes going on at home so maybe it's all too much. I feel so put on at the moment & totally taken for granted, someone left me a comment saying I should spend more time with the people who truly love me but do know what..... the way I'm feeling at the moment I'm not sure who that is.


Sorry to end on a downer..... 13 hour shift tomorrow.... yippee!!!!

  5. Hi Joe
    SO pleased that Santa's Little Helper arrived safely..
    I don't think you are alone feeling bluesy at this time of year.. It can make people very single minded and stressed which doesn't bring out the best in everyone..
    Hope the clouds lift for you soon..and you start to feel a bit of the festive spirit !
    Love
    Michele x

  11. Hello again,

    Glad the discounts might prove useful for any shopping trips.

    I know what you mean about ever growing Amazon wishlists. I seem to get mine down and suddenly I'm adding another list of titles to it!

  12. It was so lovely to meet you yesterday Joe. My arms were aching at 5.30 when we finally finished shopping but I am so glad to have broken the back of it and started Christmas shoppin at last.
