Christmas shopping

I have finally got the Christmas shopping finished. It took almost all day but it's all done now, just the food and drink to get and something for Macavity.

It is just as well since I have been invited to a lot of parties and meals out so it will be an expensive time, and I will have to be extra careful with the money.

One of the things I wanted to buy was a ticket for Tessa to come and visit in the spring but I can't afford so it has to wait to another time, maybe next autumn or Christmas?

On wednesday Carol and I are going shopping at IKEA during work time. Our boss, Debbie, asked us to go get some shelves for the new office which we are finally moving to on Friday. We are really looking forward to it even though it means to drive "the white pig" which is our old transit van. Carol is hoping that our colleague, John, will lend us his van but Debbie doesn't think there is much chance of that. we'll see.
