Advent 2025 - Day 13
Dec. 13th, 2025 10:12 pmOtherwise known as St. Lucia's day. The day when you're supposed to plant the germinated wheat seeds, so that they'd sprout on Christmas Day.
First of all, I want to thank everyone who wished us luck with the concert and crossed various appendages. I'm happy to report that it worked! We got every piece right, I managed not to mess up my tiny little solo part in the Coventry Carol, and people were enthusiastic about the performance. Phew! That was another great chip off my shoulder.
Eldest cousin, who was supposed to visit us with his son tomorrow cancelled the visit. He caught some sort of virus and doesn't want to share it with Mum, which is very considerate of him. On the one hand I don't mind having a quiet day after this week - even if we're planning to do the laundry and I'm planning to use the unexpected time off for some baking. On the other hand I'd have preferred to bring all my obligations behind me and have some peace and quiet next week.
Ah, well, at least I'll be able to write my Christmas cards tomorrow and post them on Monday. I've already selected them and prepared/decorated the envelopes, so it ought to be possible.
