Well Christmas is well and truly on its way - the weather has snapped to beautifully clear skies, no wind and very low temperatures. Frost was forming as I walked the dog at 7.30pm yesterday and feathery strands of freezing fog floated in the air. I felt like Shaggy with Scooby-Doo!
Last night was also the High School Prize Giving ceremony and my oldest son won his year prize for computing and also the "Best in Year" award. It was so good to see him going up onto the stage to get his prizes, [end of proud parent's rambling on].
Now that we have money again, I was able to spend lunch dashing around grabbing some presents, somehow managing to find everything I was looking for and get something to eat into the bargain!
Hey, things must really be looking up - I have actually managed to write some cards (well 3 actually) too! Amazing! Now I just have to knuckle down and do the rest!
Not long left now: http://www.auburn.edu/~vestmon/xmas_cnt.htm
About Me
- Rock Chef
- Hi I am married and have 4 kids - 2 boys(16 and 21), a girl (18) and another daughter who died in 2005 at the age of 17. My hobbies are wargaming and playing guitar (6 string electric and 4, 5, 8 string and fretless bass). I love spoof movies, which the kids call "Dad's stupid films" (but that doesn't stop they buying me new ones!).

Congratulations to your son! You should be very proud.
We had some of that freezing fog yesterday too. The temps had warmed up enough for fog instead of falling snow, I guess. It looked like floating crystals as I drove into work. I had to remember to concentrate on the road, not the pretty fog!
Yep, we are really proud of him. They are limited to a max of 2 prizes each, otherwise we are sure he would have got more...
Congrats to your Son! That's great! You can ramble on about your kids anyday! :0)
