    Merry Christmas to my favourite bunch of people that I'm not related to xxxxxxxxx

    I love you all lots.. you are the nicest, kindest, generousest, beautifulest most wonderfully supportive peoples I ever stumbled across xxx

    You brought tears to my eyes, Pigpen. Thank you for putting it into words for me - I couldn't have said it better. Merry Christmas everyone.

    For those travelling today, please go safely, and for those still without electricity, more *coping and fixing vibes*

    Cycling Yorkie, did you receive your cards yesterday? If not, *post office delivery vibes* for you asap, particularly after organising the Secret Santa. Have a (((hug))) on account.
    Better is good enough.

    Morning all.. I hope you were all very blessed today.. thoughts of those with empty chairs around their dinner table xx

    Pixie fed all night.. growth spurt I'm sure but I really need to sleep.. she is snowing now!

    Tiddlies were gutted their stockings were empty this morning lol.. they do have stuff for later though.


    OH running through the dailies and weeklies on WoW when I surfaced half an hour ago after the 2 naughties got him up at 8am.. priorities and all that ... no cuppa made! :eek:

    I let DD2's bf stay over on the sofa last night purely so he wasn't alone on Christmas day as his family said he is not allowed to visit today he was allowed to go for an hour yesterday :( ... I am such a soft touch!!! He will make a lovely young man with a bit of positive guidance it's so sad his parents can't see that and just washed their hands of him.

    Merry Christmas ladies :) We're at my Mum's today sharing Christmas dinner with a strange assortment of people including a prisoner out on day release and a millionaire heiress. An unusual one this year and our last Christmas before we become husband and wife :)

    Hope you all have joyful days. Christmas can be a time of great sadness for many so loads of reasons but hope we can all find and appreciate the goodness too :)

    Season's Greetings, all; I hope you're all having a great day, whether you celebrate or not.:o

    Thank goodness for having a canine guest; it means we get up at a sensible time, not just lie in bed, which Mr LW is wont to do, and which doesn't agree with me, mucks up my already dodgy body clock.

    So... Lizzie has been walked and fed, I've done a WM load of Mr LW's clothes, put the Dys0n round, and a quick duster cos I couldn't stand the sight of the dust any longer, and eaten a Frog - that is, re-strung a jade bracelet that has been needing doing for several months. So a fairly productive morning.:T

    Currently doing a quick peruse of MSE and will check my emails; Mr LW is sat on his arris watching a DVD of "Inception".:D

    ETA: I meant to say, Nicki your window is fab! I showed Mr LW the pic you posted, and he agrees with me. Well done, that woman!:T
    If your dog thinks you're the best, don't seek a second opinion.;)
