12 days!

This is the family's Christmas tree. It's insanely tall. It's so tall they can't get high enough to put a star on it.

Today was a typical day at work. Youngest kid's English is coming on a treat, middle child still has the attention span of a flea and I didn't see eldest child. I managed to sleep for the entire morning and still tidy the house quite a bit. Quite proud of myself really.

I found out this evening that I have to go skiing in February with the family. I am not overly impressed by this, because I am not a big fan of snow, and last year I fell over a lot - even though I wasn't skiing, I was just walking - but I am determined to make the best of it this time (and buy some decent snow boots!).
