For the first time I can remember the kids cba to do the Christmas tree. I am Ms mega humbug and it's usually me saying what's the point, we won't be here, it gets in the way etc etc. But this year I ask DS to get it out of the loft and he says what's the point, we won't be here, it gets in the way...

Time for bed I think. Sleep well all.

Greenbee how are you feeling today?

not too bad thanks Dusty. I think the rest and then the change of scenery at the weekend did me good.

I really do need to get my act together on the flying front tomorrow though, as I want to get my decorations done, otherwise there won't be much point as I'll be away

More meds - it's all going a bit psychedelic, man........................

Morning All

No baby arrived yet and seafarers is bored.

SW tonight but apart from that nothing on so will hopefully manage to get a few things done. I might have to start wrapping the Beavers/Cubs presents for the weekend though rather than leave them all for Thursday night. Going to do a HHI now and then get ready for work. DD is now coughing - she can't go into hospital tomorrow if she's got a cough or a cold so not sure what to do as she's ony started coughing this morning - don't know whether I need to cancel or not.

Have a good day all

Hugs

Jue

Morning lovelies! :wave:

Jue I had to cancel littleys three times due to coughs and colds, I'd cancel it or maybe give them a ring and see what they advise x

It's manic here as usual, it's all well and good organising my timetable to fit all this Christmas malarky in but I'm meeting myself coming backwards :rotfl: Tree is bought and up (looks lovely) and decs are up, list for today is full so best get started.

Thinking of Seafarers_wife how exciting x

* Work 9 - 12.45
* home and get changed
* littleys parents meeting 1.30 - till....whenever
* down to town to pay in cheque, few bits from the shops and then on way back farmfoods for a few bits.
* home then nephew pick up from school
* make tea, do some dailies, food delivery & put away
* assemble Black tree for dining room so nephew and littley can decorate
* buy bauble hangers from somewhere at some point.
* make our tea
* wrap 2 pressies (pretty much finished now)

I hoovered all through downstairs last night and carried on up the stairs so that looks better now. Still haven't been given my packing boxes by the council *sigh* ooooh need to phone Sky and cancel package.

It's cold this morning, colder than usual brrrrrrr. Will go and empty the DW, reload it and clean the kitchen x

juliejim i would just ring and let them know, DD has to have a operation cancelled because of a cold and another time they thought it was just the beginning of a cold and took her anyway.

Boys need their costumes for school play sorted this morning and i need to get money for the school as well so i think i'll leave them in. Got a shock this morning when DD appeared on the tv because she was at a signing carol service..:rotfl:

Right i better shift loads to get through today..
