Wishing you a Joyful Christmas :xmastree: and that 2019 brings only positives to your life ((hugs))XI Believe.....
That it isn't always enough, to be forgiven by others.
Sometimes, you have to learn to forgive yourself.
Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery
Today is a gift. That's why it is called the present.
happiness isn't achieved by getting extra things,
but by getting rid of the things that make you unhappy0 -
Happy Christmas Lucky xx
Hope you get to go to Florida again in 2019, positive vibes out in full force xxI get knocked down but I get up again (Chumbawamba, Tubthumping)0 -
Merry Christmas all. Hope everyone has had an enjoyable day.
SA, Florida again would be A-MAY-Zing. Can’t believe it’s almost a year since we found out I’d won the last one (29th December). It’s avout time I won the next one :rotfl:.
We’ve had a lovely day. Boys are thrilled with their gifts and we had a lovely lunch with MIL, my Mum and (as good as) Step Dad. We’ve been chilling out tonight infront of the Greatest Showman, and I’ve had a few glasses of prosecco.
I bought myself some FitFlop trainers in the sale online and gave them to DH and the boys to wrap for me. I got a ‘daughter’ and ‘sister’ charm for my bracelet (unsurprisingly from my Mum and Sister), along with lots of other thoughtful little gifts and cash. MiL has booked a night away for DH and I next week and is having the boys for us. It’ll be the first time away just us since before DS2 was born! I feel very blessed for such nice gifts.Debts @ LBM £23,729.31. Debts @ 08/04/2016 £0 :j

Sounds like you had a lovely Christmas and what a star your MIL is booking a night away for you both.
DS is the most easy going, laid back, placid person you'd ever come across but he's 13 and has started to test his weight a little bit - I'm just going to repeat what everybody else has said - TEENAGERS!0 -
Evening all.
Quiet few days in the Lucky household. Today is my Mum’s birthday but they are going away overnight, so I just took her card and present round and then dropped them off in town. We are having a family meal at a pub tomorrow night for Mum and Auntie’s birthdays, just a small gathering - 27 of us :cool:. I adore having such a big family, and that’s just my Mum’s side!!Debts @ LBM £23,729.31. Debts @ 08/04/2016 £0 :j
