Christmas Hobbies

Every Christmas I buy a puzzle (1000 pieces usually) for Daisy to work on and hopefully complete.

Sometimes she has help.

Accompanied by good advice.

And bad singing!

There is a lot of involvement from every angle.

Aww, Monster loves his Daisy.

They are truly the jigsaw puzzle team.

Until it all went a bit wrong.  Monster was quickly removed when we discovered him thinking that the box of pieces could be a possible cat litter tray.

Absolutely no, Monster!  That would be a terrible Christmas surprise to find.

Meanwhile, in my shed, I am constructing my latest Lego model – a “Tuxedo” cat.  An excellent Christmas present from OH.

A cup of tea, a good play on the radio, and a Lego project is my idea of heaven (as well as my secret supply of Tunnock’).

I have a few.  Christmas bliss.

    Our girls are now married & away from home but the essence of the holidays has stayed with them: we see both couples & treasure that part of the holidays & as for gifts, everyone loves to create & build so puzzles, Legos, sewing machines, & robots are distributed by Amazon Santa & the gang are kept busy assembling whatever he brought. It’s lovely sharing the joy of hobbies as items are constructed & progress shared. I know that holidays can be tough for so many, but I love the gifts that are shared joys & the stuff of holiday memories & stories ( shout out to you, Monster!).

    We have similar taste my oldest son son gave me Notredame de Paris lego set not the mini as my hands aren’t what they used to be, previously did the lego small flowers set truly loved these. i know notredame will take a long time but winter has just started, before I start got the chateau de chaumont building kit from Dan who is restoring this chateau which was refuge for jewish children during ww2 if you want i can send you his vlog which is totally fascinating if you like construction he is doing a remarkable job.

    Happy new year
