Once again Mum has got us, but mainly me, busy.
She's very clever this way, I only just realised how clever, she's got me making things and wrapping stuff up for her. She has even got me using my prized brown paper.
I thought that I didn't have to worry about this Christmas stuff till I had 10 children and hundreds of inlaws to appease.
Sister Lisa and I spent last night in the living room factory churning out the Christmas cards, haunched over like factory workers. At least we were allowed to view a film while we worked.
A shirt for my brother from Mum, somehow without asking me to do anything she got me to do this.
Well, this was my own initiative -though how can I be sure, really.Pop (Mum's Dad) took a little box camera to New Guinea when he was stationed there during World War 2. He took a lot of pictures and developed them all himself while there.
There's even one he took of a Japanese general surrendering.
I'm transferring them to a new album, and loving every minute of it, these pictures are so interesting.
Another labor for Mum, she's putting these soaps into little hampers for our relatives.I got out the typewriter and made little labels for them.
They remind me of the song from The Sound of Music.
