I mentioned last week that I was breathless well a new blood test has shown that my heart is not functioning properly. I am hoping it is just my Pacemaker that wants refiguring or whatever it is they can do with it. Beats are very erratic and I think that it is supposed to counteract that. Later this morning I am going for an 'echocardiogram' which should show in detail what is wrong. Fingers crossed they can sort me out and I can still go to America (on 2nd January - yep, cutting it fine). I would never have imagined I could have anything wrong with my old ticker - afterall I was told it was "a swinging brick" - only joking, I am sweet really.
In the meantime here is the desk
and here are a couple of photos from Munich the other week
Your five a day?
Don't know if you can tell but this stall is full of cookie cutters - and I never thought to buy any for Polymer Clay - Dumb Blonde!
Small Market at The Residenz
Santa, biking it, caused great hilarity with all the tourists at Haidhausen
Sendlinger Tor market
Tollwood market had a chocolate kebab stall (yes, I said chocolate). See that stack of different layers of chocolate? Well it was pointed at the base and the guy just scraped and scraped chocolate off then they put loads of it into a cone shaped (well it looked like a warm crepe) thing and finished it off with what seemed to be a blob of cream. Folks just walked away eating it all - imagine that runny chocolate. Yum Yum (no I did not indulge)
Sorry I have delayed you so long with those photos - now pop over to Julia and see what delights she has on offer and link up with lots of friends on the way. In the meantime hope you are all a lot more organised than I am.

So sorry you're having health issues - I hope the echo gives some easy answers. The pictures of the markets look great, it was lovely to see them. Happy WOYWW (and Christmas, if we don't meet next week here!) Your cards look perfect. Helen 28
I really hope they can sweak your pacemaker and make everything well with your heart Neet. Love your photos.
I've had to call it a day with any more Christmas activities now cos it really isn't easy finding a working area here now so what isn't done wont get done now.
Have a great Christmas and a happy, healthy and exciting new year.
Hugs,

Wonderful photos, and that cake looks heavenly!!!! Hope all goes well with the doctors today. Am crossing fingers that you'll be given the all clear for America, Hugs. Pxx
I hope your ECG shows what's wrong and they can get it fixed for you. Love the Christmas cards and the fabulous photos from Munich. Thanks for sharing, Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year Tracy #41
Good morning
Just popping my head around the door to say hi and wish you a very happy Christmas.
Thanks for sharing your workplace and the market pics look like a lovely place to have visited.

Oh my gosh, that cookie cutter stall is wonderful..I try to pick one up wherever we go, they are souvenirs that are actually quite useful and other countries always have such interesting shapes! Lovely views from the market I must say. Am concerned for you, hope the ECG can supply a definitive result and they can tweak with ease!
What a fantastic place to go and visit and all those cookie cutters hanging, it looks so magical. As for your health, I do hope you are alright, pacemakers or not, your heart is important you actually need it to keep going. doh...... As for the doctors they will sort it fast I hope, it would be horrible to postpone your holiday to America, gosh that would be horrible. Take care sweet lady and please let me know how you go at the doctors. Lots of hugs and love coming your way.
Happy WOYWW

Lovely photos there Neet! Sorry to hear of your heart problems - I do hope you get it sorted out and can still go to America. I presume you are going to CHA? Lucky you!
Actually you may feel better when I tell you that you are far more organised than me this year - I have yet to make my Christmas cards, put up the tree and decorations or wrap any of the presents. In my defence I have been busy with job interviews etc this week.
By the way, I have finally taken my first steps into blog land as you suggested. You can see my new blog at http://thehardystamper.blogspot.co.uk/ if you have time. Lots of love to you and Chas. x
Enjoyed all your photos! Great to travel to new places through blogs that have fun commentaries! Hope you get your heart problems fixed and you can travel! Merry Christmas and Happy WOYWW!

Lovely post, Neet, but I'm sorry to read that your ticker isn't so good ... I hope the ECG results are good and you are still able to make your trip to the US as planned. I can't imagine why we don't have chocolate donor takeaways here in Scotland ... we are notorious for our love of all things sweet! Seasons greetings to you and yours, Elizabeth x #45
Hi Neet, what a wonderful market place, that chocolate thing sounds divine!
Hope everything goes well with the Dr. appointment, and you can make the trip over here.
Merry Christmas and thanks for the e-card.

Fab photos and a scrummy cake too. Hope all goes well with your tests. Take it easy! x Jo
What a fun post, Anita!! I loved the photos and your die cut Christmas cards, too! And I'm now craving chocolate!
I did not, however, like the part about your brick ticker! That is decidedly not good. I'm glad you are having an echo and I do hope they can get it back in proper beating order with medications and that it doesn't interfere with your trip! You sort of can't put off dealing with heart problems!
Happy WOYWW and Happy Holidays! Do let us know how you are as soon as you can! Hugs, Darnell #10
Your christmas cards are beautiful and I love all your photos from Munich. Looks like there was plenty of beauty and fun things to see. Wishing you and your family a very Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! Danie #37
Lovely cards! It's a fab tree on them. German Christmas market looks so yummy! Hoping the docs can fine tune your ticker's mechanicals and all goes well for your trip. Happy Holidays! Nan G #14
Can you believe my DH went to Germany on a business trip a fortnight ago but didn't take his camera! He too went to one of the markets and said it was fantastic. He got me a couple of tree decorations thought BJ#35
I have wanted to go to a Christmas Market in Germany for a very long time and your pictures only make me want to go more! Would you look at that chocolate stall - oh yum, I want one of those!!!! And your cake looks marvelous and I would love to have a taste. What a wonderful friend to make that for you. Merry Christmas and thank you so much for sharing these delightful pictures.

WOW, that market looks so colourful and interesting! You must have had a fabulous time there!
I know what you mean about not feeling like stamping at the moment. And I have just bought some lovely new stamps which I am looking forward to using, just not today :)
Hope your heart problems are sorted out soon.
Have a lovely Christmas,

Plenty of Christmas Cheer there !!
Ooh Neet, hope all goes well with the tests and whatever you have to have done is not too invasive! Love the Christmas cake, especially with the Lindt topping! Beautiful photos from Germany. Have a wonderful, peaceful Christmas.
Hugs
