All The Things That Sparkle

Andy and I went into Motherwell yesterday to do some Christmas shopping, since this is our first house together, we didn't have a Christmas tree. Shopping in Wilkinsons, I see all the pretty decorations in their array of colours. I have my heart set on purple and gold, I don't know why these colours appeal to me....maybe because my favourite colour is purple, not sure. I pick out all the things I want from coordinated tinsel and beads and picked out a 6ft green tree...even after saying "No no, we will have a small tree".

Since my money budget is really tight, Andy was a gem and bought us our first ever Christmas things. I really can't wait for December to arrive so that we can put up our decorations, although I may follow the 12days before Christmas rule as that is what Andy is used to...We shall see!

I do worry how I shall buy everyone a gift, it may only be a small thoughtful things this year....

....its the thought that counts.

Feeling Alot Better

After a few sleepless nights, the swelling in my jaw has went down....thanks to antibiotics. I look normal again, well theres still a touch of swelling but I dont look as awful as I did in the last photo :)

So Im going into Glasgow today to do some christmas shopping, get the rest of it in......as I've already done half of it :D Still to put up my decorations, I've only put some tinsel up on my shelves, I now need to put it....everywhere else! :D My dogs had tinsel collars for a little while yesterday, it was so cute!

Merry Christmas everyone!
