going through my Facebook memories on December first is a great reminder of the various Advent Calendars I’ve had over the years…

they started a number of years ago, when I received 24 decorated magnets that went on 2 muffin tins… the items to go into them were provided and a colleague filled them;-)…

since then I have received fancy chocolate calendars, a repurposed frame with purple inserts that my daughter made, and individual boxes that have been refilled numerous times…

I’ve also received handmade cards with daily readings…

this year a Walker’s Shortbread calendar was delivered;-)…

I am blessed…

for years the catches on the cabinet under the fish tank have not worked…

last week we picked up some new fasteners that I wasn’t sure would fix the problem…

Monday morning I took out the magnetized pieces, added gorilla tape to each of them and fastened them to the door after removing one magnet and cleaning off the tape and glue with one of my Christmas presents, a scraping tool…

such a little thing, but fixing it and having it work properly makes me so happy;-)…

a week or so ago, I cleaned all of the various bits and pieces off the front of the fridge…

put the container with the 24 magnets on it ready for Advent… my daughter sent them to me years ago… they covered two muffin tins and each held a tiny treat as they were opened daily during Advent…

then I put them away carefully🤪… and I didn’t find them until last year, lol… I am happy to use them this year, especially as I still knew where they were…

I think I might start with the 24th and then count back until Christmas;-)…

guess I better turn the magnets around, lol…

this morning I put up the first one…
