An Early Present

Thanks a lot, Mad Hen!  You are a dear!

It arrived late in the afternoon and hubby and I wondered for a bit who had sent it and what it was, especially as we knew we hadn't ordered anything.  Then I saw the name of the sender ......... hugs hugs hugs to Calstock right away!  I found two batteries and hubby set it up by the window.  What a cozy glow!  It will actually be our only decor for the season as we stopped setting up a tree and lights and often opted to go abroad instead.

We'd been clearing stuff up all day, me emptying and sorting out more boxes upstairs, hubby organizing the shed.  Much later, though, we had a regular row over a familiar topic (no, not about other women, something we actually never fight about) and both went to bed sore.  I didn't fall asleep properly till about 5 a.m.  Sorry about that, Mad Hen ... nothing to do with you or your present, just two silly folks unable to communicate properly.
