Hoping to find time to relax soon Trish! In the middle of selling our house and moving to another one - not the best to attempt just before Xmas! Maybe in January I will be able to breathe again!

Good luck, Phrynne, with the sale...can be such a stressful time, but all worth it in the end, I'm sure!

Thanks Trish :)

Thinking of you at this time Phrynne, selling and moving can be very stressful. Hope it all goes well and by January you are happy in your new home. 😁

Thanks Trish and Dale. I cannot wait for January!

I'm sure that by now everyone knows of the horrific events surrouding the first night of chanukah in Bondi Beach, but it is still a magical holiday of love and light.

Happy Chanukah everyone. x
