Christmas, that is. Sneaking up on those poor folks who didn't see it coming. The next few days are going to be spectacularly busy, and would you believe that I'm working on christmas eve too?! Thankfully I won't be on my own, we're running at a reduced capacity food-wise and it's only half a day, but still! I must be up early to fight the traffic, and work, watching the clock until 1 when we can shut up shop and go home for christmas.

But deep down I'm still so excited. I hear all the songs and I remember when I was a child, hearing the bells on santa's sleigh. Watching the made-for-TV films about Christmas, it's all wonderful. And the best bit? On The Big Day I'm going to have those I love the most around me.

And how could I not laugh when presented with the below-pictured item? It is apparently a "raving rabbid" (and I've known enough of those little blighters in my lifetime ~ if you name your rabbit Flopsy, you're in for trouble - you've been warned!) from a computer-game, merchandise of which my husband is given regularly (lucky blighter!). I've been told that he's accompanying my husband back to his desk when the xmas break is over, but I'm getting attached to the little fellow. Just watch, he might bite!
