Christmas and other stuff!

I haven't made the banana chocolate breakfast bars yet but I think they might be a good Christmas gift. I haven't done much in the way of preparation for Christmas yet but I think that I will try and simplify things. Christmas dinner will consist of lots of ready prepared Marks and Spencer food. I've also ordered a turkey breast rolled, from the butcher. It should be a lot easier to cook than a full sized turkey and not take up as much space. I've done some Christmas cards but many may not make it there till afterwards. I don't think that I'll worry about that. I have the present situation under control. I think. Alas, I should have started sooner.

I have had the most stressful day today of this entire school year. I don't want to go through this again. It all comes from accepting the position of department head. Another 'alas'! This job pays me less than £80 a month extra and is taking up far too much of my time and energy. I haven't written much of anything in ages and am really suffering because of it. So, as of tomorrow I must do something. What, is the question!

Seems to me you are very much on top of Christmas preparations. We've been enjoying the book you sent for several days. Again, thank-you.

Your Christmas dinner plans sound prefect: simple and delicious.

As for the "other stuff"...uikes, it sounds like a pain in the rear.
