  • Wannabedebtfree - In my office I'm told by my colleagues say Im not allowed to sing christmas songs till after my birthday :eek: (ive been know to hum to the odd one in august)!

    I got both of my magnets from Twycross Zoo! Although I am moving them further up the fridge today - theyre not really at eye level :o no wonder it doesnt stop me getting the chocolate!! :D

    Glad you are feeling better! I actually got some extra studying in on monday :T so at least thats something!

    Jacey - ITTTSSS CHRRRISSSTMMASSS! I so annoy them at work with that one. :p;) Well done getting OH in the festive shopping spirit - mine leaves it till the LAST possible minute. :rotfl:
    That will be nice if you are in the new house and can have a nice big tree! I love decorating my tree - then its just a battle to stop the cats from trashing it!! :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl: Ahh but I wouldnt have them any other way. :A :D

  • I was just messing around and saw it on the internet! If I see anything else good will let you know :)
    Jacey - our cat LOVES the xmas tree and all the baubles. He spends ages pulling them all off and chasing them round the room. Last year we ended up with about three left because he had hidden them all! We found them months later in cupboards, under sofas etc xx

    Awww they are adorable arent they.
    I tend to try to tie mine on! Lol. Otherwise they are all over the place too. I have a few I let him get though- Ones that I leave around!
    The funniest thing though is that under the christmas tree is officially the youngest cats ''den'' and he hides under there! Then on christmas day when he gets his presents :o (lol!) he takes them all, and the older cats presents, and stash's them under there, hidden with wrapping paper that he pushes in there. :rolleyes:
    His first christmas he was so hyper he actually panted like a dog! Ever since he just gets so excited!! I think they mustve gotten there enthusiasm for it from me. :rotfl:

  • Very nice!

    I like that you are also on a diet....I have been on a diet for the past few weeks and would love some moral support! I have 18 pounds to lose before I am at target weight. Are you on a challenge with the weight loss?
