That's awesome to see these two kitties bond so nicely and snuggle - my two sleep in separate rooms
Lucky was the first we adopted so he felt a bit annoyed whe GG turned up, he literally couldn't stand him.
But GG is soooo sweet, he didn't give up chasing and following Lucky everywhere, and now they are best pals and play together all day long! Now Lucky even feels 'Momma' and takes care of the smaller 'baby'... they are so funny!

How is everyone?
Hope everyone is doing okay and not up to BAH HUMBUG of the season
Since I only buy gifts for children now, that makes only 5 people to buy for
My older 2 grandchildren are at an age where I just give gift cards and money
Some clothes so they have something to unwrap
The 3 little ones I buy for I am almost done
Just need a new baby doll for Hazel
She loves her babies
Wicky will be getting a new leash and collar but not BV LOL

How is everyone?

I am well!
1) Decorating the house was a challenge as it's so different from the old house. I've had to figure out what works where.
2) Holiday shopping is well underway. I'm the senior elf and keep it fun and organized.
3) Gearing up for next weekend. I'm headed to Green Bay for the Seattle/Packers game. DH and I are a bit nervous about the weather. We're preparing as best we can!
4) Congrats on the new grandchild SS.
5) Had one of those marvelous dinners with good friends that went 5 hours. Great food (oysters, celery and chesnut soup, sturgeon with kraut, ginger cake) but even better conversation.
6) The California International Marathon was today and the course is near our home. I ran about 1.5 miles of it as part of my own run (early before the head pack came though) and then walked part of the course with my parents and the dogs. So wonderful to see runners out there and I was happy to cheer them on. (I ran the marathon several years ago).

I hope you are all well too!
 
oh, i love this idea!!
I am doing fine, and hope you all are doing great, too!
we had a great weekend which this year coincided with UAE national day so we had one extra day off, and we attended 2 last days (of 3) of Rugby 7's tournament, which was great fun! Well done to all sportsmen, i really respect and appreciate their efforts and spirit, it's such a rough game and i saw so many palyes injured badly but still carried on the fight! South Africa (men) and New Zealand (women) won this year and we managed to get very close to the guys, had some shots with them and high fives after ceremony of awarding. I am not a fan of rugby, but i am full of admiration for these boys and girls :heart:

i got all scratch stuff which i will need for my decoration project ready and will start doing it on the next weekend, will report the results later :)

Gifts are partially sorted, i got a Pandora "Home, Sweet Home" charm for my good friend who has recently bought a house and will be moving soon, got a Gucci wallet for my DH. Kids' gifts are the biggest headache!! lol :D still thinking and searching, so I will appreciate if you can share the ideas, i have a girl of 8 and a boy of 11.

we got a tree up in the office already, despite +28 outside still the spirit is in the air :)

i am counting down till my leave on 19th, we have a local stay leaves with my DH and our friend will visit us for the holidays and stay with us for a couple of weeks, so we plan to travel around and see more of the country that's become our second home, i will try to post pix of the X-mas trees and decorations which are quite generous and posh in Dubai

Have fun!! :)
