Time is flying by and life is really busy, my desk this week is actually the charity group where I manage the purchasing, packing and distribution of Christmas hampers, so here are some shots of the team of workers packing the hampers yesterday being Wednesday. I had no energy to post last night sorry
The distribution started today being Thursday, agencies come and pick up the required amount to give to the needy. In these bags are enough things for a family to have a really wonderful Christmas lunch or dinner.
Yoda still loves his dome, a photo of him curled up sleeping and the other one of him needing the bed first, he even has his little mouse in there with him.
I have done some work at my home desk, cards have been made for all the volunteers that work at the charity group to say thank you from the Management Committee this year I created 79 cards, they are all ready in the shoe box for the function/luncheon that will be happening on the 19th to say thank you for your year of excellent work.
My desk has some cards that I created early on and the little boxes that Di made for me to put the cards in. I am giving each of these boxes to 2 wonderful ladies that help in the pantry in packing hampers throughout the year. I manage the department but without their wonderful help it makes it so much easier to manage.
Also on my desk is a new punch from Stamping Up being the scalloped tag punch.
The window has a new Fiskars Fuse cutting system that I managed to get for a song at a Fiskars factory outlet sale with Di last month. the shoe box is full of the cards for charity and other bits n pieces.
Last but not least is the photo of my Christmas tree.
If you are wanting to see more desks then pop on over to Julias place called the Stamping Ground and join in the fun.
Happy WOYWW & Hugs to all
Eliza & Yoda

What an amazing thing you do, managing all that to help poor families. There is so much bad news on TV, and really, it's outweighed by all the good day to day work that so many folk do. I wish we could hear more about that instead. I hope you manage to get some time to yourself in the run up to Christmas, you really work so hard, you deserve a break.
Yoda is looking very fetching in his dome, lol! I think he's making sure you've caught his rpofile perfectly :-)
Hugs, LLJ 21 xx
Looks like you should need some time for yourself to breath. You are doing a tremendous charity job and I cannot praise people like you enough who don´t always think of themselves in these selfish times.
Yoda looks so content and comfy I wish I was small enough to share the Yoda dome and cuddle up with him.
Cheers

I am so proud of my friend in Oz who does such wonderful charitable work. I do tell people over here about you you know.
Love seeing Yoda in his dome, he looks so settled there - and mousey is with him, oh my!
Lovely to see your tree, I hope you are getting some relaxing done with the family when it is lit in the night.
Hugs, Neet 17 xx
The hampers look very full and will be much appreciated I am sure - no wonder you were too tired to post last night! Have a good week. Helen 8
Hi Eliza and Yoda....thanks for visiting my desk. You are such a busy lady, wonderful work you are all doing and thank you from me. Busy too making that many thank you cards, do hope you are organised or getting there for your own Christmas. Love the tree I am turning my lights on in the daytime (dull and grey and wet here today) to feel the JOY. Cheers and hugs RobynO#27
