Oh and Christmas Dinner.............

The frozen chicken breast I got (as a treat so I didn't have to mess around with a fresh one........we don't do turkey)............ was tough as old boots.

The bisto best gravy granuals I treated us to (instead of normal bisto/ store own brand) was vile ........ greasy and tasteless.

The christmas cake has gone untouched.

the vodka i was going to put in my coke has been drunk since I last checked and no one bothered to tell me.........ohh but DH was "going to get some smurnoff ice..........but forgot".

Stick with the spaceship - I'm a non swimmer so any other kind is a no-no. Life jackets aren't a good look and my personal flotation devices kind of get in the way. Come to think of it I can't understand why I can't swim.....................

Just wanted to say Well said on the other thread. You can see what I have been putting up with all day. Absolute Nightmare of a Woman.

I did go off on one a bit and probably made myself sound like some kind of childless nutter which I'm not really, I accepted life's path a long time ago and think of myself as "child free" not "childless" but the poster really wound me up.

I think it's time for a G&T to chill out - may be back tomorrow once I have the decorations down:D.

Night everyone

Will come over on Friday. If you don't feel like lunch, don't worry. I will brave the shop and say Hi.

I am just practising my rainbow. You can ignore everything I write.

Put a pony in my pocket
Fetch the suitcase from the van
Cause if you what best
But you don't ask questions
Then Brother I'm your man

Cause where it all comes from is a mystery
Like the changing of the seasons
And the tide of the Sea
Cause he's the one that driving me berserk
That's why only fools and horses work

Oh pretty :rotfl:

Hi all, sorry to hear that some of you haven't had the day you've worked so hard for. I feel guilty but I'm buzzing so much from today if I don't share with someone I'm going to burst. We've had such a great day, my Dad had emergency heart surgery two weeks ago and we didn't know if he'd be out of ITU let alone hone for Christmas but he's done amazingly well and is home DH and I drove to my parents this morning and arrived at 7:30 (it's 2 hours from home!) we did the normal presents and things but DH and I decided to buy my parents a new TV as theirs was getting old and a bit tempremental but we left it hidden in the car until after all the presents were done and DH emerged with a huge box, my folks were absolutely gobsmacked.
But the reason I feel so lucky is that we had the opportunity to enjoy being together, give presents, chat and read silly jokes from crackers it's the first time any of us have relaxed and enjoyed being each others company for weeks.
I wish I could visit everyone who is sad or disappointed today and share just a little of the way I feel today as you have all worked so hard and deserved a special day.
Sorry for the rambling message - just even more excited today than yesterday.

bladerunner73 Please don't feel guilty for having a lovely day.

I am sure I can speak for everyone in saying, we are all really pleased for you, and glad your Dad has made such a great recovery. xx

Thanks OMO, DH has just asked if I want to go shopping tomorrow so I think I'll get my wrapping paper and tags for next year - I'm absolutely determined to be organised.
By the way love the rainbow all bright and sunny colours

Bladerunner what a lovely day and a truly lovely sentiment behind it

Linky how dare somebody upset you! I am off to search for offending "troll". Today of all days! I did have a little chuckle when I read your DS wondered what was missing when you've moved heaven and earth to keep things as"normal" as possible so as not to disturb him! Classic case of mums can't win syndrome I think.

I am really sorry that for one reason or another some of you haven't had the day you hoped and worked for:( I know some people feel an anticlimax on Christmas Day when they've spent so long planning it. There are 12 days of Christmas though and we've got 11 left I really do hope your Christmases improve you really do all deserve it

Chrissy aarrrghh what can I say. Blooming rotters:( xxx
Your post this morning brought a tear to my eye (in a good way)

Linky is that it now is this thread closed? Night night xxx
