We haven't seen Aminachaudhary for a while. I hope she's well and not fretting about what everyone else is getting for Christmas.

We're cosy and at home. Lucy Worsley on Ag. Christie will be on in a bit and it's very interesting. We've managed to miss all the footie.
I'm sorting out in my head next week's short story for our writing group as I type. The local press photographer visited said group and took a photo of us handing a copy of our first published anthology to the son and daughter of a deceased member, who left us enough cash to publish it and give us a working balance to use for the future. The paper is also publishing a Christmas story by me. My 11 yr. old granddaughter; who has a lovely voice but is ditzy enough not to understand that she had to practise a song for an audition, was yanked to stardom in her school production when the official soloist couldn't make the performance and granddaughter stepped in and sang faultlessly. I have time to practice the organ this weekend.

Yes, I've got lots to be cheerful about and offset the gloom. :)
