So after feeling a bit down and grumpy yesterday today has been a bit better :) I must admit that the kids were driving me slightly mad this morning so I shut myself in the kitchen and did some ironing.They got to make as much noise as they wanted for half an hour and I came out of the kitchen much calmer so peace all round!

This afternoon we met the lovely Lyzzy and Beth for hot chocolate at Costas.As Beth had Christmas money burning a hole in her pocket we also took a trip to Toys R Us and Dunelm Mill, which saw both Lyzzy and I buying new duvets!

I also got a book to start my 365/366 journal in.I have decided I definitely won't be doing it as self portraits.If I try and look serious in the photos I end up looking gormless and if I smile I look false! So I give up! This evening I've made a start decorating the book,though it's not finished and I'm not sure about it.I haven't even dared to look at what everyone else has done with theirs yet,which would probably make me condemn mine to the bin!

It's getting colder and colder here and the girls are hoping for snow tomorrow.We're forecast light snow so I've warned them not to get their hopes up.Wouldn't it be fab though?!
