Christmas Pressies #Etsy

Hope you enjoy today`s Christmassy goodies brought here especially from Etsy for your delectation.
For those in the UK I hope you have all stayed safe, yesterday and last night. There has been flooding with the high winds and tide surges made worse by the gale force winds and rain
. Local authorities though have actually sprung into action evacuating people, organising places for people to go and transport to get them there.
Fortunately I live on a hill and didn`t have to go out yesterday, I just watched things sail by the window from the warmth of my home. It has been extremely blustery and wet at times. Not nice at all.

ENJOY!!!

Wind is howling, blowing a gale
it`s raining, or is it hail.
The trees are whipping around,
so much debris on the ground.
People struggle along, bent double,
these winds are nothing but trouble.
Head down against the cold,
enough to make you feel old.
The sunrise warned, it was red
really should have stayed in bed.
The saying goes, Red in the Morning
always brings a shepherds warning.
Then you know the weather will be bad
although not usually quite this mad.
Still tomorrow is another day,
there`s always hope, is what I say!!

March of the Snowmen #Etsy

Still keeping with the seasonal theme you notice but this time it`s snowmen.
I mean who can resist them, they look so cute. I think it was the short film The Snowman that started the real love affair for most of us and I have to say it hasn`t really waned.
Mind you for many it takes us back to childhood. Playing in the snow, building a snowman, rosy cheeks, having fun and going into a warm brightly lit home afterwards to dry out and get warm again. I love it too. I can remember building an igloo with my brother, it was plenty big enough for both of us to sit in, lot`s of snowman making, the odd fort too.
I used to enjoy playing in the snow with my daughters and have had fun making snowmen with the grandchildren too.
I always think it`s important to keep your sense of fun and just have a go and importantly to let go and enjoy yourself with children and grandchildren.
I confess that I`m the one at the supermarket whizzing down the aisles on the trolley given half a chance and always whizzing across the supermarket car park to return the trolley. I love that job.

ENJOY!!!

Have fun playing in the snow
you`re never too old you know.
Always keep a sense of fun
until your time is done
Laughter makes the world go round
it`s always such a lovely sound.
Enjoy singing out loud
you should smile and be proud.
Whatever makes you happy, DO,
it really is good for you.
Run, jump, dance and play
have some fun every day.
Ignore every single frown
don`t allow it to pull you down.
Do whatever makes you feel good
it makes sense, you know you should!!

Great Gifts #Etsy

More gift ideas for you, or just goodies to make you feel festive.
Have to say that if you haven`t started that Christmas shopping it`s high time you did. Don`t forget about last posting dates etc for buying online.
Yesterday I went to school for an hour. It was called a maths cafe` but was more crafts. The children had to make a chicken clock after hearing a story about Cluck O` Clock. The clock involved cutting out and gluing pieces, so was great fun, We got to have coffee and a biscuit too, the adults. An enjoyable afternoon to be able to go and take part in a little bit of school life.
Before I went I was busy doing some needle felting and I`m now down to my last felting needle. I can see why sculptures cost quite a bit, it`s more to do with the materials than the time. The rate I go through felting needles is unbelievable, hope my new ones arrive before the last one breaks.

ENJOY!!!

It`s dark outside my window
as I wait for the night to flow
on into the new days dawn
waiting for the light of morn.
The moon is just a sliver
and yet still a light giver,
the stars are out and bright
against the dark of the night.
Here come the colours creeping this way
signalling the onset of the new day.
Arriving in a blaze of glory
to start this new days story.
Nature`s gallery is there to inspire
us all with these colours of fire!!

Cute & Quirky #Etsy

I think you`ll love this today. It`s very cute and quirky with Santa`s Elves. I was looking for something that little bit different when I came across these.
They are very cute and very festive.
Yesterday I was on a mission to find advent calenders for my daughter. In between working full time, 4 children, a house, a dog, a hamster and redecorating she left it a bit late and couldn`t find any. The only place she hadn`t tried was in the city. Can`t say I blame her for not wanting to go there, especially at this time of year.
So I went instead and used it as an opportunity to meet a friend for coffee. I got the advent calenders in Thorntons, you`ll be pleased to know, where they were doing them at a bargain price and still putting their names on. Yay me!!

ENJOY!!!

You should check upon your shelf
and you might find a little elf.
They like to get in everywhere
dancing round without a care.
They help Santa every year
and they love it, that`s clear.
They don`t like to be seen by us
and always escape without a fuss.
They like to have a little break
to play around and eat cake
and go visit each loved one
especially at Christmas to have fun.
They spread magic wherever they go
taken here and there as the winds blow!!
