Stuff

After a very long time putting up with a phone that ran out of battery very quickly and was taking mediocre photos I now have a new one - it's a Pixel 8a and I saved £139! I kept putting it off because I don't like change, I was concerned that I would lose everything on the old one, but with help from my darling daughter it all transferred over. The camera is brilliant, photos are so much better, crisper.

I didn't go to the hospital today, I wanted some time to catch up with Christmas stuff, I hadn't even written a single card. This morning I went to our church cafe, it was very nice to be a customer instead of a worker. I missed the pre-school children singing, they did it earlier than expected. They were leaving as I was arriving so they treated me to my own private singing of 'Jingle Bells' which was lovely. 

The children made these lovely fir cone decorations
 for us ladies, and gentlemen that work in the cafe.

The church is looking festive. This is the tree that two ladies entered into the Christmas Tree Festival (coming soon)

This afternoon I started writing cards and then decorated a tree, the lights are in the branches. It looks prettier in real life.

I also put Christmas things in my Manor House dolls house, the tree and presents in the hall

Lunch

Tea

This fireplace fitted in my first dollshouse. My grandson was much younger then and he liked it. It doesn't really fit in the Manor House but I like to use it.

And I just put in tiny santa because he's cute!

  2. Ooooooh! I love your dollhouse Christmas decorations, Polly! They are so beautiful! Dinner looks delicious and they even get glasses of wine! And look at all the Christmas cards they've received. I'm so happy you shared these photos! Were they taken with your new phone? What a treat to get a new phone along with help setting it up.

    1. I bet they had lots of fun making them. The lady who runs the pre-school is a lovely wonderful lady.

  6. The tree entered into the festival is lovely, Polly, and hope the decorators win a prize. Yours may not be traditional but the lighted branches and ornaments are lovely as well. Those decorations in the dollhouse are wonderful and the Santa outside the front door was a perfect add-on.

  7. Wow, the tiny tree in the doll house is so cute. I still have my doll house Christmas tree and put it up on a shelf every year, although the doll house is long gone... :-)

    Merry December!
