We wish you a blurry Christmas

Actually, New Year is usually blurrier. But anyway, here's a blurry angel on our tree on a day when the most exciting thing that happened was that I sewed velvet without it going all wrinkly.

There was school, rain, shopping, the bank, and endless waiting for something to arrive that never has.

And quite a lot of faffing around with our home network when it turned out that adding a third element to my 'internet in the walls' joy of yesterday broke everything. So, with all the bits of kit in the room with me, I slowly went through the whole cycling off and on procedure, ticked and unticked a few boxes on our Airport Assistant thingummy and, finally, taddah! We have two wifi hotspots and internet coming out of the wall for the kids' computer that has a rubbish wifi card. And still another wifi zone to set up upstairs. That may have to wait until January... I think I've used up all my 'restart your modem' patience for this year.
