Echo - I am bursting

Mum2one - you know me too well. I have tried to peep but can't see a way of doing it, when I was little used to open all the crackers and re seal them so I could pick the one I wanted at Xmas

This present is staring me in the face . Wish he would put it somewhere. There's a box from boots come too and can't see a way of getting that open either as they have their own seals on the box. How annoying.

I made some nights in at the movies yesterday. Been collecting movies all year for that so that's good.

DSS has finished with the girlfriend !! She had a smallie as well so don't know what to do now. Have bought presents for both of them. If he gets back with her they're here and if he doesn't ???

Angela - hope your ok, your very quiet , must be busy with Xmas

Rufus - hope you had a lovely day yesterday, lucky you having all these Xmas'

Money penny - I might have this bus ills stocking finished by Xmas if I do I'll take a picture. The stitching not very good but hopefully it'll last every year lol , how's yours coming?

Sad news all round here. My Dad died on Saturday, he'd been expected to live a little longer but contracted a lung infection in the "good" lung and even on pure oxygen couldn't keep breathing. And my DH was readmitted to hospital yesterday, they're saying probably a week. I'm here with the two kids, the big one is beside herself excited about Christmas and I'm really not feeling it any more.
