A light at the end of the tunnel?

Nah it's only a train.

I'm kidding, I'm kidding... sheesh.

Anyways, there is a light of sorts appearing in my life. Things are going swimmingly at the moment. Alright, swimmingly but with armbands, a float and a lifeguard on hand. I have myself all ready for the Glenfiddich this weekend, as well as Perth, work is going fantastic, I'm just back from being up at Shetland Accordion and Fiddle Festival, and we're already looking at booking up for next year. I'm also determined to find someone else in the town of Inverurie who would be interested in meeting up a few times a week to go dog walking with me. Sasha has a lot of energy to burn and I'm not exciting enough for her!!

On the downside, we lost Glennie a few weeks ago, and although this is a very sad thing, it's also for the best as he wasn't happy, he was in pain and it was unfair on him. So now, dad is stockpiling food and treats to take down to Sasha since he hasn't got a dog any more. At this rate, she'll be getting fat as a butter ba'!!

And now, Christmas is around the corner. Can I confess something? Oh good! I'm SOOOOOO excited this year. It's my first PROPER Christmas in my FIRST house, celebrating our FIRST year in it. So I'm looking at things to make for decorations, gifts and food, planning on who would be coming round, how much I'm going to have to make, and my timings of how the day will run. Yes, I'm aware this is a very sad and worrying situation, but to hell with it. It's going to be a full house with up to 6 people, two degus, two cats and a batty malamute. Would I have it any other way? Of course I bloody wouldn't!

Depending on how I get on with my crafty stuff, I may well post up pages on how I did everything, and of course, document the whole event, including how the house looks, how the food turns out, the tree, and whatever else I can think of. I'm determined to get Sash a set of reindeer horns, but the man won't let me.

BAH HUMBUG!!!

Anyway, that was just a quick update. I'll put up my ideas for Christmas in the next couple of weeks - feedback would be much appreciated since this is my first proper Christmas EVER! Well, that I've organised myself!

Wish me luck... I have a YC Activity tomorrow and I might need some help sleeping... *gets rubber mallet and bangs it on head*

NIGHT! x
