I have been very productive, since Saturday I have made over 35 Christmas cards, I think I need over 40 to cover my card list, with any luck I wont need all those but at work you never know who is going to give. 

As I haven't had my usual 2 week holiday in October to make them I don't have the same amount of time to spend on them, meaning I have had to make them much more simple. 

As a result I think there a lot more classy, they have come out lovely, quite sophisticated if I do say so myself. 

Now I plan to finish them tomorrow, then its time for wrapping and decorations.  It normally takes us a full week to decorate the house, I will probably leave my rooms till the weekend. 

I haven't brought out my Christmas jewellery or jumpers yet but I am certainly feeling more in the spirit now :)  I need to make gift tags I think, will need to work on that.

I am now feeling rather tired, I woke up this morning with a sore throat so I think I am in for the lurgy, will need to go to sleep early I think.

I am listening to John Barrowman's latest CD, I was hoping Angel was my Angel as in Sarah McLachlan's "In The Arms Of The Angel".  I love that it is :) 

John this goes to show how much I love (please sing this at you gig in May :)) you as every time anyone but Sarah sings this song I want to murder them, well Damien Rice could do it as well and maybe Rufus Wainwright but that is because these people along with Jeff Buckley can actually convey the adequate amount of emotion required for this song, when its sung properly it should be breath taking, yes it has been know to make my cry but that's not bad thing, being front row at a Sarah gig will do that to you. 

Music that moves me will always be my favourite, I want to connect with it and to make me feel something, even if its just happy.  They used Angel on Strictly last week and I was swearing at the TV as the women kept missing parts of the song, please don't mess with this song, I keep expecting it to appear on X-Factor next, if anyone other than Diana sings it I may want to kill some.

I was weak and bought a Permanent account today, maybe be slightly overdrawn shortly as a result but its so totally worth it, I now have 80 extra icons to play with :) I so know what I am doing tomorrow, the only question is whether I can drag myself away from icons and Merlin etc to make my cards, I have also read every piece of Merlin RPS, thanks [personal profile] euraylie  I don't think I will be escaping this fandom any time soon :) Its a great distraction when there's no Supernatural and as I have two weeks holidays coming up shortly I know how most of that time will be spent.

Right guys I got the majority of my Christmas cards posted earlier in the week...was slightly more expensive than expected.

As all my cards are hand made they tend to be 3d which makes the envelope slightly bulkier.  They wouldn't go through the first slot so had to pay large letter post  for a lot of them, never mind though.  Have to send off [profile] hopeless_cynic and [profile] smeckles90 cards still but everyone else's should be arriving soon. 

I so far have got cards from [personal profile] frayen, which is gorgeous with our boys on it and lovely doctor who card from [profile] prawn658,  I have my lovely new white fibre optic tree up and it looks gorgeous with the purple led lights I got etc, now I just have to organise the rest of the decorations.  There will no doubt be pictures once I am finished.

Also finally got the TV card working on my new computer, now I can get it set up properly finally :)

I shall return to watching X-factor and making bitchy comments about the two acts I don't like lol.
