    Your Mother's reaction, when you told everyone you had forgotten to order the turkey, was priceless! I too have a terrible cold and cough, but not Covid, thankfully! Living alone, I do not have a wonderful, loving, Philip to bring me a Christmas cup of tea and sympathy sadly! It is just me and the dog! I think, like your Mummy said, you have worn yourself out, but that is the way your life is at the moment. Thank you for sharing your downs as well as ups with us all here, we LOVE you, and wish you better. xxx

    Someone has to control Isabel & if anyone can it’s Chantel.

Maybe Isabel should order the Turkey next year! Mon Dieu!

      You should not be walking around with the flu when older people are around. They can get it much worse than you. My father was hospitalized with flu twice-before Covid. Fortunately, he survived but it was close. Even if it’s just a cold, no one wants to catch it before Christmas.

    I cought a head cold three months ago and it was terrible. I had to flu about 40 years ago, one and only, and I still remember how I felt. It had to happen !! Nothing that whisky and sugar and cloves in hot water can't fix ! I told a collegue to take this some years ago when she fell really ill and next day she turned up in great shape ! She had actually taken several glasses of this mix instead of the one I suggested, so she was on turbo drive all week ! Hugs xxx

    That was a very fun video! What would Christmas be without challenges and plans going awry. Teaches us to be humble and grateful for the blessings we do have. I for one am grateful for heat and power on our second day of brutal cold in the Midwest and now thankful for water as our well was frozen most of the day. Our Christmas prep has been overshadowed by fighting midwest arctic blast but we can still have The Joy of the season in our hearts!

    Firstly I hope you are feeling better tomorrow for Christmas, but on the other side of the world, instead of decking the halls, I am oiling the deck! Trying to get everything ready for the Christmas barbecue. Might seem strange to you, but it's going to be too hot to cook much inside and the family don't like turkey, Christmas pudding or Christmas cake. So, happily it's ice cream with chocolate, biscuits and loads of delicious berries. Hope you all have a wonderful time. From all in Australia 🇦🇺

    Your with all that love and care for you so rest and let be! Life is too short to try and do everything! I’m iced in on Vancouver Island British Columbia canada. Cant even get to the shops. Gifts haven’t arrived due to icy conditions on roads and you know what? It is just a reminder to slow down and remember it’s not about all that! Family is all safe in their homes and we have warm drinks and food. Let go and just be! Health is everything ❤

      I think that the weather is dreadful across Canada at the moment. It’s been pretty mild in Ontario this month, but now it’s miserable. Key is that people stay home, off the roads & hunker down safety at home. Fingers crossed that everyone’s power stays on🤞🍀🙏🏻🇨🇦

    You’re in good company. Here in Dallas I know of at least 8 family members with Covid , including my grandson who is visiting from Tennessee. So sad that he has to stay in his room.

    An amazing coincidence: I looked up sure-fire behaviors that will make you sick and here are three of them--- which happen to be in the top ten. #1. Working outside in freezing temps wearing a t-shirt #2. Filming, editing, decorating and general multitasking until the wee hours of the morning day in and day out. Finally, the nail in the coughin’, #3. Engaging in rigorous travel marathons. Not that you or Amaury would ever be found guilty of such behavior. Rest well, get well, feel well and then, only then, do tell with a joy-filled, happy, healthy and smiling Stephanie in a Chateau Diaries video from one of the most glorious, warm and friendly Christmas venues ever, Chateau de Lalande, hosted by a lovely, one-of-a-kind and dear-to-our-hearts chatelaine. Merry Christmas to all and to all a good night --- and a most festive New Year’s Day.
