Tis the season

Amelia and I went to a Christmas party today. It was the SWAN party - South West Adoption from All Nations. Sixty adults and forty children of ages ranging from babies to about 10. So a bit noisy, if you can imagine. There was entertainment, and Father Christmas came to give out gifts. Amelia kept asking me where he had parked his sleigh. (On the roof. Why? To keep it out of the way.)

Meelie's cold or virus or whatever it is has come back again, with lovely yellow snot pouring out of her nose. Ah, the joys of parenting. It's still been raining quite a lot, though we have had a couple of beautiful bright days. About 50 per cent more rain this year than last, apparently. Not cold though. I see you had a little snow on the ground in Ontario and NB.

Still driving up to the client's office three days a week, until Christmas anyway. I drive across the city to drop Amelia off at nursery, then take the back roads up to the village of Stoodleigh, where the small pre-press company is located in a large country house. A bit of an unusual arrangement - they also put on functions. Here's the link.
