INTEGRITY Is when you choose to act and think based on your own personal values rather than personal gain.
Good Morning World... Sun 22nd, 6.19, +3.0dg. I am not saying a thing about the outside temp other than to say Ohhh dear. Thank goodness we have an ice rink at the end of the road. So two more sleeps and then game on... I am ready... yesterday finished all the sweet bits, boned the three chickens, cooked the pea and bacon stuffing, filled, rolled, tied and froze the birds .. Tick. Today the lamb comes out for defrosting, marinade sorted. Will chargrill it on the little kettle bar-b-que first before finishing it in the oven. Practising making little croissants for Christmas morning ... rule of house you want to drink you have to eat... selection of finger morsels sorted while we do bubbles and presents, even though it is a skinny offering under the tree... all the children coming to stay are over 15 so the dynamics of present time changes dramatically. Today is the day to put the laundry to rights.. jeez that means ironing and putting away all the summer fripperies I took to New Zealand. Sort the two extra mattresses one for the dressing room and one for the office, and make them up as beds, quick duster flick, vacuum and tweaks upstairs ... nothing too strenuous .... Sit down and stay down. That part of the day I am looking forward to. Made the decision not to apply for the evening job... am not certain I like the idea of people in my house when I am not here.. I know it sounds crazy as I have a B n B...I assume that feeling will change in time., the guests that are arriving on 30th from Germany for New Years are now staying on until the 2nd, they check out at 10am as another couple arrive from Israel at 2pm... talk about quick turn around this will test my skills, and that now means that January is almost solidly booked Planning the oven juggling to get it all cooked and served in a good orderly manner, on 25th, thank goodness I have a relatively high tolerance to certain things !!! It's almost Christmas....
