  • When you need to buy lots of things for your home, but you hold off just incase you might win it, even though you know you could be waiting a very long time or may not ever win what you need at all, but you still hold off, just in case.

    When your kids not only write a Christmas wish list addressed to Father Christmas, but write a prizes wish list addressed to the Comping Fairy too!

    And for those of you who DON'T believe in Father Christmas santa-claus.gif or the Tooth Fairy tooth_fairy_carrying_tooth_md_wht.gif or the Easter Bunnykins happy-bunny-smiley-emoticon.gif - you shouldn't be asking for Comping Fairy Moving-picture-fairie-dancing-in-fairie-dust-animated-gif.gif to sprinkle lucky dust you way!

    You either believe in the ALL or NONE! ( I believe in all!)

    And on the subject of Christmas......121 days to go so that is only 97 days until the Advents officially start!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    When you still in therapy from the 2012 Advents and people keep mentioning the 2014..
    Rational judgement, now, at this very moment.

    Virtuous action, now, at this very moment.
    (Wisdom, Courage, Self-control, Justice)

    Willing acceptance - now, at this very moment - of what you can’t change

    When your kids grab stuff you don't need in the supermarket, because they can see a competition on it! Or they beg you to win the WWE stuff they're desperate for & EXPECT you to win it!

    When you have food poising and all you can think about is how many page on MSE you have to go through when your feeling better (lucky it was only 30)

    Usually, I'd be against this kind of attitude when it's only August but the other day I got thinking about the Currys wishlist advent from last year and got a bit excited about it. I thought to myself "ooh, I hope they do the same this year" Not that I'm likely to win anyway ;)
