Busy Weekend

I'm feeling a bit under the weather with a chesty cough and stuffed up nose and general bleugh feeling. But that doesn't stop the relentlesss advance of Christmas ever nearer!!! The fact that I took a week out of the preparations last week, is just starting to dawn on me - I'll never be ready in time!!! To top it off we've got two HOST students staying this weekend too. They are just playing on the Wii with Mr Messy, Drama Teen and Fraulein and from the laughter I can hear I think they are having a good time :-) I have just realised what a manic Christmas we are heading for too!! Little Miss Sensible has arranged for an unknown number of guests (friends from uni) to visit around New Year for an unknown amount of time - makes planning catering a tad difficult lol. Then Fraulein's best friend is coming over to visit and arrives and leaves on the exact same dates that Drama Teen goes to/returns from her CLAPA Ski Camp!! AND (yes there's more!!!) we have to fit in a visit to our Welsh niece, who's birthday is Boxing Day so that Drama Teen and her can go shopping for her birthday!!! No idea how this is going to work - I'm pretty confident it will work, just not sure how lol!!!

Hope you get better soon. I would say get some rest, but there is no chance of that with your schedule!

Love S

Thanks S :-)
Students go home in an hour or so, once they are gone should be able to catch up a bit :-)
