  • Feisty Im sorry things are so tough at the moment. I hope things pick up soon.

    JuniorJ Hope they evict you tomorrow. Hospital is never fun but your PJs sound fabulous!

    Well Ive just reserved 3 things at argos for tomorrow. Bloomin website was showing 2 items availbale though and as I hit reserve it said they were out of stock. But when I check stock on the item page its in stock. Anyway finally managed to get a bloomin reservation through....

    Have looked through my chrimbo app and apart from the 3 or 4 things Im holding out for in Tesco exchange I think Ive nearly finished the girls presents. Will probably get dd1 a craft set of some sort in b&m or HB nearer the time tho.

    Ive written a non perishables list today and made a start of perishables for nearer the time. Will aim to get something at every 2 weekly shop.

    So things still to do will be:

    Make candy sleighs.
    PJs for all.
    Decide on chrimbo eve film
    Make cards with kids.

    Erm I ll think of more as time goes on.

  • Evening everyone, it's been a loooong day!with nothing Christmas happening at all, just caught up but I'm tired and grumpy so I'll not inflict that on you all.
    Some fab bargains being had, I can't wait for the weekend so I can go in search of some too. Can't remember who posted the link but I love the book people, so many amazing bargains.
    Junior j I hope you are able to go home soon, love the sound of those pjs though, possibly make your stay a little more bearable having us Christmas folk there with you xxxxx

    Has anyone seen stockings in P*undland, or know that they'll probably have some out soon?

    I'm looking for some for my parents, but don't want to spend the earth on them if I don't have to! (I know my parents would only moan if I spent too much on them anyways! Which isn't a bad thing! Haha!) Thank you :)
  • Does anyone know where I can get cheap Yankee Candles from?
  • Not had a good day :(:( DS didnt make his temp job because he woke up at 5am being sick, and now is on a right downer because he is disappointed in himself, we got the invitation today for his graduation ceremony a) i didnt know we had to pay and b) we can only have 2 tickets per family so one of the girls wont be able to go, how the hell do you call that one??? Im so bl**dy fed up, i have so been looking forward to this all year (and i dont like any sort of social gathering, it makes me ill with anxiety) grrr

    JUNIORJ im so sorry my lovely you have been so upset, i have dealt with horrible rude consultants before and i was too scared to say anything back, and went home crying (appt was for DD2) but when i got home i got angry and i did make a formal complaint some people are not meant to be in the caring profession. Keep your chin up :)
    BUNBUN please dont feel your problems are not important enough, everyones are different, and i dont think there is one person on this thread who would think otherwise
    KAYA hello and welcome to our lovely thread :)

    this year do something that scares you for courage is not the absence of fear just the knowledge that some things are worth the risk

    For those with Thomas mad children like mine amazon has 'muddy matters' DVD for £3 with free delivery :) I just got one for Thomas :) £land also have selection packs. A cadbury one and a milkybar one. I picked the milkybar one up for Thomas and he now has plenty of chocolate for Christmas.

    I am feeling very down today. Overwhelmed with my son's disabilities and the plans for the future and feeling a bit bitter too :(
