It's Christmas Eve here in Australia and it's going to be about 30C today. Trevor and Ben have gone off for a game of golf. I am about to go and have breakfast (7.15am!) I've been up since 5.30 as the alarm went off for Trev to get up.

Merry Christmas!

And the same for you Michelle I hope you get everything you wish for and more. Love and blessings Chris

Merry Christmas to you too and may the dear Lord richly bless you in the year to come! He is the one true friend to all of us, and He enriches all the friendships we make with each other! It is 12:40 on the east coast so it is officially Christmas Eve here on the east coast...I will go to sleep now;>) Hugs and blessings to you and your family!

p.s. as far as the organized thing..i wouldn't know!

Thanks so much Susan - how blessed are you to have your family so close by. My Mum only lives about a 5 minute drive from me and that is great especially now as she relies on me more and more. Our children only live about a 16 minute drive away for our son and younger daughter. Our elder daughter Dana only lives 4 minutes away.

I'm chuffed you think the same way as me - but I want to let you know that I have a warped sense of humour!!!

Hope you have a lovely day, love Chris

Hope you have a lovely Christmas Chris. It is so great to be organized.Shirley

It's great to be organised isn't it? I have done a little tea towel with a reindeer on it for my SIL in Canberra today. We are going down there for the weekend. Love Chris

Merry Christmas to you Chris. Yesterday our priest was be-moning the fact that Christmas is commercialized, so he would approve of your beautiful picture. The true Christmas!!

Yes Vicki, I agree with you and him. Christmas has become so commercialised. Our priest Wendy just loves Christmas time and to be with our parishioners. Love Chris

Wow, I thought about peeling the spuds today too, might do them this arvo! That's nice to have them split like that. We might do that next year. Have 2 separate meals - one Christmas Eve and the other Christmas Day. Love Chris
