As we'd had to postpone our New Year's gathering, we've had to wait a while to exchange presents.
Slept well as had been so tired, barely aware of Dave coming to bed after the film session. But felt very bleargh after too many nibbles.
Was wet and windy from the get-go, so no chance of a walk around the block. And it stayed like that the whole day - Storm Franklin this time. Not as destructive as Eunice, but a good excuse to stay in. Halloumi brunch, telestrations, more prosecco, and gave L and P their presents. S loved her bee clock. They left shortly after.
We rested for a while and Sophie watched Fisherman's Friends before another presents session with too many crisps, olives and bubbly, and leftovers for supper.
The Ukraine rhetoric is ramping up. I so despise the politicians playing with people's lives in this way.
3 good things
1. A good night's sleep and little worrying.
2. Being able to stay cosy out of the wind and rain and not having to drive home today as we've taken tomorrow off.
3. Lovely presents as always: including a hand printed cushion from Sophie, and cat cupboard hooks from Anna.
