TheNeil Report post Posted November 30, 2006 Tsk, tsk, tsk. You last minute bargain hunters. What's worse is that you just know that it's going to get busier and busier the longer you leave it (or just cheat and go to Amazon) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tally Report post Posted November 30, 2006 I've got this friend who has 4 children, #1 and # 2 are teenagers, #3 has complex disabilities affecting her mobility, and # 4 has cerebal palsy and autism (she adopted him, fully aware of his disabilities), is a special needs teacher, runs a worldwide support group (mostly internet-based, but also runs meet-ups) for people (and their families) who have the same condition as #3, and provides respite care for other families with disabled children . . . and just in case that wasn't enough, her husband works away from home Monday to Friday. I normally get her Christmas card, complete with yearly update on everything they've been doing, before the end of November. Although I have to say, she does seem to be running a bit late this year Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kathryn Report post Posted November 30, 2006 Well I'm just about to start the annual hunt for the Advent calendar and the wooden bits that go in it. Why oh why can't I just put things away in the same place??? K x Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
