Up early (thanks Sirius) after stupidly staying up late reading Sharpe's Fortress (awesome). Made some cookie dough and put it in the fridge to rest. Jamie home from last night shift with bold plans to stay awake until the new mattress is delivered. Did pretty well but drifted off at about 11am. Trilly and I went to Stocklands to get her hair cut (she can now see where she is going) and a rolling pin to make our Christmas Tree cookies. Also picked up another Bernard Cornwall novel for a steal and some yummy chicken kebabs for early lunch (I skipped breakfast).
Got home and Trill sat down and watched "Wallace & Gromit - The Curse of the Were Rabbit" with a bag of carrots. I made a mountain of different sized star shaped cookies so on Sunday I can arrange them into a Christmas Tree and decorate them with icing snow and sugar ball bearings. We have been invited to a street party on Sunday evening and the bikkie tree is our "dessert to share"
Mattress arrived and is in place (after having to pry Jamie off the old one) and Jamie is currently testing it out!
Trill has already come to me with "but I've got no one to play with" sob story ...... only 44 days to the start of the new school year :-)
