Just over 24 hours until we break for the Christmas holidays. I have been organised this year, and (touch wood) don't seem to have any last-minute rushes to get stuff out. I have a couple of reports that need to go and, after the detention letters, that should be it.
As far as Christmas prep goes, I am more or less on top of it, which makes a huge change as I am usually wrapping presents on Christmas Eve. On Saturday I need to do the Christmas food shop and buy one more present. I won't see Chris until Christmas Eve and, as he is bringing a couple of presents back with him, it looks like I WILL be wrapping presents on Christmas Eve!! Only two, though, whereas I am usually wrapping about ten :P
Grace got her braces off yesterday and she had 24 hours of freedom and then they hit her with the retainers. She needs to wear them full time (except for eating, drinking and sleeping) for 6 weeks, then at night. She says she feels really self-conscious about them because, although they are clear, they make her teeth look shiny. Honestly, she does make me laugh. Stephen has to wait until January for his appointment, but I don't think his braces are ready to come off yet. However, I am not an orthodontist, so what do I know??
Chris has an interview at Shrewsbury Hospital tomorrow. I hope it goes well - I like Shrewsbury. So when Stephen has finished at 6th Form and goes to University, we can move down there. It's about 170 miles away and is a really lovely part of England. I won't speculate though - he hasn't got the job yet and, on current form, probably won't. :(
Anyway, watch this space ;)
