Have just got in from my Guide unit end of term party. Playing musical statues and other silly party games with a load of screaming 10 - 14 year old girls isnt as easy as it sounds. I'm exhausted.
I think they had fun.
Anyway, I heard about this on the news this morning:

I thought it was sad. Home made presents are lovely to receive and, although perhaps you can only give home made gifts to certain friends and relations, it's great making something for someone.
I didn't see Kirstie's Home made Christmas but why criticise people who are using their spare time productively.
Do you know what, I'm too exhausted to put my response into fully comprehensible sentences but suffice it to say that I thought it was more than a little ridiculous when I heard it this morning. Sad.
Will try to post a WIP on Wednesday but the last week before Christmas in a C of E school is more than a little busy.
Can't believe it, then again I can. A lot of my friends at work have the same opinion. They think homemade stuff is somehow tacky or not a good present. I personally think a gift make takes a lot more thought, time and love!
