Hiya Pap..... love the camera pig, he's soooo cute!!!
Xmas was great, we only ended up giving OH's DS1 his prezzies, plus MiL/AiL (Auntie in Law - OH's Aunt) opened theirs from my DS.... all were very happy indeed! We're having the rest of ours on Christmas day evening, when we all stay over.
Just looked at Skint Spice's link, u could make a fortune next Xmas if u could get hold of the pattern!

ohhh sarah glad you ahd a great time :j does your ds understand anything? Deffinalty, i have found loads of free patterns online for things like easter chicks etc. I can definately see this as being a little side line but i am not presurising myself... if i make them i make them. If i sell them i sell them. My cards/tags come first so i shall produce them with enthusiasum.
My days gone well thanks, driving was cancelled but i am unsure how i feel about that as i have 4 hourss on thurs to look forward too :rolleyes: presents are wrapped and under the tree, decs are up if a little late and everythigs ready for tuesday now. Just started my monkey and all is looking good, completeing his arms first as i think i will have to get mum to help with a little on the boody ~ never dropped/inc stitchs beforeOther than that i have had a relaxing day and quite exciting really ~ one day to go.
Working tommrow so a few hours before celebrations can begin :j0 -

Glad u've had a chilled out day..... I'm doing 0600-1730 tomorrow:eek: , then off for two daysbefore it starts all over again!
No DS doesn't really understand much about Xmas...... he got very excited seeing J open his presents, enjoyed playing with the discarded paper, and he loves all the lights, esp as MiL has tonnes of decs and lights all over the place! I am looking forward to seeing his face on Tues tho when he gets all the lovely new toys etc to play with.... which reminds me, I must dig out my camcorder from wherever it is hiding, and charge it up...'We are all in the gutter, but some of us are looking at the stars' - Oscar Wilde0 -

Wow thats a long day, i am in 8.30 ~ 5pm but its not too bad as i have lifts in and out. I am back in boxing day for 8 1/2 hours but it is double pay and a day in leiu then i have thurs off so not too bad ~ enjoy your break hun ~ the joy of retail.
Awww bless him... is it his first xmas? i think it is but cant be sure. Why is it children prefer the paper and the box to the item inside the box :rotfl:Awww i bet his face will be a picture camcorder and digi cam needed for that one i think... when he is older will you have santa visiting?0 -
