It gets earlier and earlier

 Hubby gets up at seven these days. Very strange for him, because in summer he would not leave the bed before eight. Since I am a nice wife (or a revengeful one, who has not forgotten about hubby coming after me, when I planned a nice, quiet breakfast), I will follow soon after. Strange is also that now I don´t feel the need for taking an after-lunch nap. I feel less tired but more active. I did a lot of dusting using my step stool then pre-arranged items in preparation for Christmas decorating. All dragons are back in the glass case. I took a look at this week´s Lidl leaflet, when I had a late cup of coffee before it was time to cook lunch- fish and potato salad. Only that I found that Lidl was selling decoration including stag and doe- will wonders never cease? No discrimination of does here! I quickly dressed for a tour to the shop, but had not yet left the private drive when son number one´s car came in. Hubby had forgotten to warn me that son and Xaver would be here about lunch time. When I came back with stag and doe in tow it was already settled that family number one will join the rest of the family on Christmas Eve. Our house might explode at the sheer number of visitors! Maybe we should have built a bigger one? One hour later Oscar came, too, bringing a bag with the inevitable cheeseburgers and chicken nuggets Xaver loves so much. Oh dear, that smell alone! They left at four and I quickly added a few rows to Elsa´s cardigan- two sets of the pattern are done now. My wrists are not happy, but they will have to cooperate. When it was getting dark I remembered that the palm trees needed to get brought in. Poor hubby dragged eight of them to the conservatory. Some of them do not look so good anymore- the soil was extremely wet, even though I had watered them only twice, and sparsely at that.
Last night I wondered about our bedroom being so illuminated. Just now I noticed that we will have another super (full) moon tonight. The moon will be hidden- it´s mostly cloudy now after a day with lots of sunshine, but I dare say that I will be awake for a long time during night, as always during full moon nights. All´s well, no werewolves in the family, and a sleepless night will surely make me discover more cookie recipes on Youtube I might give a try. wiseheart, there has been a time when I, too, confided in Chefkoch.de. After some spectacular failures I altered my strategy and returned to channels on Youtube which are trustworthy for me. The plus is that I will see how the outcome is supposed to look like...
