Its that time of year when kids get all dreamy eyed and too excited to sleep, the Christmas countown has definitely begun... and Id just got used to autumn.

Sadly I lost my unfinished halloween work when a fatal error killed my lap top and with it the urge to replace the painting. Hopefully Ill have something for for the festive season very soon

Things finally looked better after bad health and crooked banks. The epilepsy pills seem to be working, the neuralgia hasnt been bad for a few weeks, and I found a law ruling to use against my bank for their unlawful act. I even changed banks to stop barclays behaving badly, all of which did boost the depression.

The social and domestic demands didnt go away though. Sods law, if it can go wrong, it will. In quick succession I lost 3 vital appliances - My lovely gas fire sprung a leak, My frige freezer heated up above room temperature and my heating system died completely. As they say, you have to laugh...

Now then, do I feed the kids or warm them up
