<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Receiving a beautifully wrapped Christmas present is guaranteed to set the heart a flutter.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">And with so much choice of paper no-one has any excuse for shoddily wrapped gifts in my humble opinion.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Even the cheapest of paper can look fabulous with a little thought on how to wrap it.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">As the nights get colder I like my bed to be as snuggly and warm as possible.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">And of course at Christmas I also want it to be as festive as possible.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">So when Andy brought home some amazing winter bedding from Wilkos I was eager to get them on the bed.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">First to adorn our bed is this beautiful set;</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Do you have a big clean out before Christmas?</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">I do, to make space for the family as well as gifts!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">And seeing as I am at home I've been doing just that.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Yet again I find myself asking where did all this <strike>junk</strike> "stuff" come from.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">And no room is immune to the tidying.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">I have piles for the bin, pile for the charity shop and pile to eBay.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Being off work at the moment the most asked question I get is "how are you?" The instant answer you give is "I'm ok thanks" which of course is a complete fib. But who wants to hear the truth?</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">"My stomach feels like its been ripped out and stuffed back in!"</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Which strangely enough is whats happened.</span><br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Everyone says enjoy the time off, chill, think of all the things you can be doing. Don't get me wrong it is fab not having to rush in a morning to get in for a busy day at work. But I still am unable to lift, unable to drive and unable to walk round for hours on end. Add to that the fact I will get only statutory sick pay for December and it immediately limits anything you can do financially.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">My </span><span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">experience</span><span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"> is unique to me, due to issues I had previously it's not been the straight forward recovery that others have had from the same surgery.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">But I don't want you to think I am moaning. Everything has a plus side (yes my glass is ALWAYS half full) I will have finally got rid of the bloating tummy (I hope), painful and constant periods. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: courier new, courier, monospace;">Finally I won't have to worry about having white bedding or sitting on someone </span><span style="font-family: "courier new", "courier", monospace;">elses</span><span style="font-family: courier new, courier, monospace;"> sofa.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Hubby and Ashleigh have been amazing. Cooking, cleaning and telling me off when I attempt to do the things I am not allowed. I forget at times that I am unable to do such simple things. My mom has also been fabulous doing all my ironing, that is the one job I am not looking forward to taking back.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">However I can't wait to get back to the job I love, my team who are stars and being able to do things myself.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">In the mean time I shall enjoy being pampered and enjoy as many Christmas films as possible.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Have you noticed just how much party food is in the supermarkets at the mo?</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Masses, thats how much!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">And when we saw this <a href="https://www.aldi.co.uk/specially-selected-croquembouche/p/071984104760000" target="_blank">Croquembouche Patisserie Kit </a>from Aldi £4.99, Andy and I just knew we had to try it.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Now the one tip I would give is to pop all the profiteroles in place before using the caramel to adhere to the stand.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">I didn't do the hence I ended up with only three on top.</span><br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">I have to admit it looked fabulous when it was completed and the best thing was that it tasted great too.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Even after feeding five of us we still had loads left over so I am confident that one will be fine for the eight of us on Christmas day. After all we do have no less than four puddings every Christmas. In our defence we do eat as a family for the almost the next week on left overs from Christmas day.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">For only £4.99 it is an amazing pudding, not only looking amazing but tasting great too.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">So if you happen to be out and about in Aldi, and profiteroles are your thing, grab one whilst you can.</span></div>

Not pleasant but much needed, leaving me off my feet for a good few weeks.<br />

Yes, I have had a fabulously short week at work.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The fact that it was bank holiday and that I work with some lovely people does help obviously.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">

<b><u><br /></u></b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We had a really relaxing few days in ludlow and even had the inlays pop over for Sunday lunch.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I really do have a fabulous (be it crazy) hubby.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: lime; font-size: large;"><b><u>The Bad</u></b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
I have been doing so well with my diet but my tummy has been bloated.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
On the plus side looks like this is finally going to get sorted.</div>

Whilst we were away we visited quite a few different art galleries and museums.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
(I do love a spot of history)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">

He very quickly took a photo (which was allowed) sent it to the girls and claimed it was one of me.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Don't get me know I would be very happy to look like that but in all honesty I have many more curves.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And its a vast improvement from the first one on a lush packaging that he claimed was me too.<br />

Yes, it does look very much like me doesn't it?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So the question is have you found any images that look like you?</div>
