So typical

noadvertising Today I sewed together the cardigan's sleeves (after unravelling ten rows on each and producing a more appropriate top shaping). Darned in all threads- and the buttons I bought are still missing. It's hubby's fault- he was the one who unvoluntarily made me reorganize the content of the cupboards:)) Oh well, there's still time- tomorrow the boys will be here, so no time to search for buttons. We will do the wichtel laterns instead. Also daughter will come in the afternoon, alas, too late for jigsawing. She promised to stay the whole Thursday, but I know it's karaoke night for her, which she won't want to miss...
Otherwise it was a quiet day. Not much housework to do, only lunch-cooking turned out quite time-consuming- potato strudel with minced meat and a selfmade curry mayonnaise which I had to do twice. The first try ended up in a glass jar. I will use some of it for curried eggs tomorrow. Son did not want the train table for Matthäus for Christmas. He thought I'd better buy him a toniebox with four figurines. Costs? 152 euros. I am doomed. That's not what number three would want for his son, it's always DiL3 who does the choosing. This lady is a piece of work...
Anyway, the presents for Elsa and Matthäus are ordered and will arrive tomorrow. I'd better stay at home all morning, because Amazon deliverers always put the delivery in front of the entrance door instead of the terrace door, as specified on my Amazon account. I also ordered metal rings and rusty stars for handicrafting. Found some very interesting handicraft instructions on Facebook. Now comes the time when we have to lock either aunt Lil's or number four's room, to have a place where we can store Christmas presents. The basement isn't safe anymore- Cassian with Flavius in tow are very interested in getting down there. Hubby just caught them on Sunday, before they found grandchild number four's present...
