Thanks for the info Tillie, I never thought of that.
Julie does sleep well at night (6pm - 8am) of late (believe it or not) but never naps during the day.
I awoke early as usual, been watching TV for the past 3 hours (since 2am, again) which is not a problem as I have sort of gotten used to it. In this time I have also been thinking, thinking of Christmas, moving, our packed up and boxed house (ready for moving) been like this now for some 3 months and I thought, what the heck, let's unpack this house and stop here, then I thought Bathroom is upstairs, we to have a toilet downstairs but no bathroom, so I am back to square one again.
This house has steep stairs (very steep and narrow with small landings top and bottom) so a chair lift won't work... Anyway, nothing to do with Julie, just rambling on... Sorry...
I were thinking about all the lovely Christmases that we have had together, the great times, the stockings full of presents, the noise, the food, the smells, the fun and then it hit me... This year is going to be a very quiet one indeed, OK, have a few coming around on the 26th for dinner but Christmas day is going to be so different (I love Christmas by the way)...
So... I know Julie and I agreed, as we did last year, to only buy a couple of small presents for each other but I am going to do a secret 'Santa's sack' for Julie. Julie is in Day Care on Monday so this will be my day to go out and fill the sack.
On Christmas morning I will get up as usual (2am) dig out and build the large glass dining table (Yep, that's been packed for months too), set it up for Christmas dinner then I am going to put Julie's 'Santa's Sack' which will be full of presents at the foot of our bed and wait until Julie wakes up and finds it. I will have to remember to wrap all these presents in the cheapest Christmas paper that I can find (paper that tears by looking at it) as Julies fingers are really struggling now as she is unable to open a letter or any type of packaging now.
This year, Julie is going to have fun... and I am going to enjoy watching her have that fun too...
