Taking time

I'm writting this post tucked up in bed with some hot chocolate. I seem to be coming down with the virus that made its way through the children. I feel pretty rough but I'm a tough bird, I'll make it.

I've pulled out a new book to read from the great stash in my bedside cupboard. I actually received it for my birthday back in October! 

I'm challenging myself to read one chapter a day. With all the bedlam of Christmas plays, gift buying, prepping and all the other joys, I think it's important to remind myself that I need to take five minutes out here and there.

Tonight the elves are abseiling from the curtain pole. With paperchains! It was actually a nice quick set up tonight thanks to a tall hubby.
