Raindrops were falling on my head

Well Mum-in-law and I braved Sainsbury's this morning, and they took the other arm and leg. It was very cold, and foggy, and I had to defrost my car first. I had heard on the news that 3 cars had been stolen in an hour in one town, people leaving the ignition on whilst cars defrosted, presumably popping back indoors. Nasty to hear of the coach crash in Cornwall, we went to the lights in Mousehole last year on Tom Bowkers' Eve, but did not get star gazey pie. However last Christmas in Cornwall was mild.
Mother in law pottered about and finished my ironing, my kitchen has been cleaned to within an inch of it's life, whilst I braved the elements and took a bag of stuff to the charity shop before husband changed his mind. Then took referral forms back to dentist. I have to have a root canal filling replaced, as I get toothache in a tooth with no nerve, and apparently it is a specialist job. Also quite expensive, but as it is a pre-molar and I don't want a gap,would like to preserve the tooth. Vanity of vanities! Husband has to have an investigation into his abscess.
some side roads were still treacherous, and in one shopping area I visited the car park was like a skating rink. I had a few nasty moments. As I drove home, I could see rain on the windscreen. Husband said 'It's raining' when he came home. I went to neighbours' houses to delver cards and it was dropping on to my head. Last time I looked out it had stopped. Hope it doesn't freeze tonight. Have wrapped presents today for those not here for Christmas. Cake now iced but can't decide how to decorate. Mislaid part of Mum-in-Laws present, hunted high and low, then sneaked into her room and found it in there. Hope she's not too nosey! She may have seen it.
I must go now as I am soooo tired and I have a sandwich to make for husband's lunch tomorrow. Nearly finished nearly there.
