Odds and sods

Things have changed a little bit in our household over the past week.My little mother has moved in with us while she waits 
to go into hospital for heart surgery. Last week we twice ended up in ED in the middle of the night and on the second occasion she was admitted for several days. We all feel much better now she is home with us and we can keep an eye on her. Hopefully the surgery will take place before the end of the month.

Anyway I haven't done a lot lately but here are some assorted photo's from the last week or so. 


Some of the flowers Mum has received from family in Australia.


Little mother organising her Christmas
 presents for her little great grandchildren.


Brown trout caught by my GKB, none of which
 won the competition he was taking part in.


Christmas cake ingredients and below finished product. I have a Christmas function I am supposed to be helping with so said I'd make the Christmas cake and then if anything happens with little mother I feel as if I have upheld my obligations.



A very enjoyable night out at a makeup evening with my girls, two grand daughters in front, two daughters and then me. And I was fortunate enough to win the door prize :)
