    jamtart - thanks.............but am I really organised ? I don't feel it at the minute with all this 'stuff' around me and still things to do.
    I'll start to get the 'bah humbug' feeling if I'm not careful..................lol
    Maybe when what I've done is all delivered and out of the way I can sit back and relax.......................:rotfl:

    Sorry if I get names wrong here lol

    Jamtart great news on the house, got everything crossed for you ;) and your tree looks like how I want mine to look, you have the same colour scheme as me :D

    Roxie Hope you get the kitchen business sorted, cant be nice having to worry about that with Christmas just round the corner, sending big hugs your way.

    Mary You are soooo organised, yes you might have stuff everywhere but at least youve got it and know what you are doing.

    Mum2one I know what its like to have awful neighbours, to be fair mine dont even come close to what you have had to put up with, things can only get better now :T


    I went to argos today and got some toys in the half price sale, spent £33 and got 3 wrestling figures, a shape sorter snail (baby toy for Blake) hannah montana street gliders, knee/elbow pad set, Bratz LA nails kit. I think I did pretty well there and its all on their xmas lists :T well excluding Blake obviously lol

    Xmas Saver!
    Thought Id share 2ngts positive!! experience! Will have to have a bash at uploading photos.

    Afta last ngts xmas shopping, Id left chocolates on floor in a bag, (block of 6 bars of choc with fruit from Boots), bag was knotted.........
    Thought Id treat myself and celebrate, so opened bottle of my xmas supply, lWhisky the dog in the front rm, came back, dog was lay on floor, with paws on the laptop looking at the screen, thought ah bless him, yes it was bless him..........god knows how, he had opened the bag, opened the chocolate pack, nothing was ripped and eat half of my white choc bar, and half milk choc and nut bar....he'd left the dark chocolate!

    Back to wrapping presents 2mor, but got to nip to Argos, got a couple of half price toys on reserve.

    Looking forward to getting my life back on track now the neighbour has gone, taking dd to Chester b4 xmas (!!! back xmas eve), we got the £9.00 travelodge rms, so be good break. Then New Year afta Devon...........start the dreaded diet!!!
    xx rip dad... we had our ups and downs but we’re always be family xx

  • Good news mum2one!

    I've done way too much today, food shopping, picking up guitars, picking up presents, been to the bank, wrote most of my cards, hidden gifts all over the house! Now I'm going to go glitter some name places!

    If I drank tea I'd be in dire need on one now!
