I can’t believe December is a week old already. Where is the time going? I could have sworn it was only just summer…
Anyway, I’ve been a really, really bad blogger lately. Between illness, seminars and Christmas shopping I just can’t seem to find the time for anything! The good news is that I’ve almost finished buying all my Christmas presents. The bad news is I’m also almost out of money and I still have to send several packages to England. Oh, and then there’s the little matter of paying the electricity bill but we won’t talk about that…
I put Christmas decorations up in the flat at the weekend. Very exciting! I’ve never had a place of my very own to decorate before 🙂 Between that and all the presents I’ve wrapped the living room currently looks a bit like Santa’s grotto. A very messy Santa’s grotto admittedly (I desperately need to tidy the flat but the whole no time thing just keeps getting in the way!) but it’s all very festive. Jan and I also went to the Christmas market on Saturday and I tried some cherry Glühwein, which was delicious. Definitely getting in the spirit over here 🙂
I promise to come and visit you all soon, but right now I have to go and do the computer marked assignment for my science course. I haven’t been able to work on it much lately but I refuse to fail now that I’m so close to the end!
In the meantime, why don’t you leave me a comment and let me know what you’ve all been up to….
Confuzzledom 
Guess how many presents I’ve purchased?………ZERO.
Help?
Ahhh, snow! 🙂
I’ve been trying to survive the end of the semester push, so I have not been in much of the Christmas spirit or any other kind of spirit of a happy or jovial nature. 😉 And I have not been a very good blogger either. So not to worry.
Now if we could only figure out how time flew so fast.
My house is decorated, the Christmas social stuff has begun, but I am feeling distinctly un-shoppy and un-bakey. So there may be no presents or Christmas baking. But at least the tree and house look lovely!
Jessica – if I hadn’t had to send the pesky things to England I probably wouldn’t have purchased any either!
Amanda – if we could figure it out & sell the secret I’m sure we’d make a fortune!
pinklea – the tree is, of course, the most important thing. I don’t have a tree 😦
I’ve been a bad blogger too. lol And yeah – WHERE IS THE TIME GOING?! It’s crazy.
You sound 100% more prepared than me. Went for my first Christmas shopping today and regretted it deeply. Online shopping, here I come! Sabine x
I have not purchased any presents. I’m not sure I’ll be giving one any anyway. I’m financially strapped because I have a pending relocation to allocate money for. 😦 I haven’t blogged about that yet because I can’t—YET.
OMG there’s snow on your blog! Hehehe. Yup, I’m not going batty. There appears to be snow falling on your blog. Through your blog?!
Oooh. Cherry gluhwein. I wonder how that tastes.
