Good Morning all

4 sleeps until the house gets totally christmasified! Cannot wait x
Clumsy42- Hope you are ok, that must of been a bit frightening to experience. Hope your treatment goes well today x
Mrs-Moneypenny-you are very talented with your sewing skills, I would love to be able to sew x
Babyboo- you have had a tough year by the sounds of it, in the midst of it all a baby is coming to bring new life, new joys and lots of memory making x I do hope that bothyou and your husband have good health soon xx
Mrs Invisible- They do look fab, going with the snowflake theme I bought some glittery large snowflakes from Poundw0rld to hang in my window to make it festive and also to hang in the kitchen on the large wall to make that a bit more festive too. It was 2 for £1. Need to pop down and get some more all in time for North Pole Breakfast when the elf arrives. Cannot wait. Debating whether to buy a couple more for placemats now. lol

Well today I am trying to find a new winter coat that is windproof and waterproof. Im off to winfields to have a look when my mother arrives. Im desperately searching for deals for an xbox one for my son. Cheapest I have seen up to now is xbox one 500gb with fifa16 and controller for £249.99. Really would like to get him it but the budget is so tight x

moneymission your tree is lovely bet you can't wait to get the rest up

babyboo lovely to see you back hope things are going ok bet you can't wait to be a nanna

sains finally sorted out my missing nectar points and added some bonus ones as a goodwill gesture so picked up another lego dimensions expansion pk . Have to say was very impressed with theworks ordered some books late on sunday and chose click & collect which said 3-5 working days got an email monday morning saying they were ready to collect :T . Really need to try and get some wrapping done this wk and double check exactly what I have/still need.
Asda had the xmas tree shaped crumpets in today. They also have the 1/2ish price joints on offer so might see if I can make space in the freezer for a couple if the slow cooker pulled pork I'm making turns out ok

mrs-moneypenny

Money mission love the tree
04624181 bc (before children) I was a trained over locker and dress machinist for a living so I'm just keeping my hand in. But thank you, I do love sewing.
Read while hair dye was taking this morning then Had a huge wait at hospital with mil and she dozed so I got a big chunk of my latest Christmassy book read, really enjoying it.

Out tonight with Dh, got free tix to preview of 45 years, looking forward to it.

See you all tomorrow.

For anyone that is interested and I'm not sure if the offer is in other stores. I was in my local wilko and they have the Medium sized Yankee candles (Christmas ones) for £9.00, loads of people were grabbing them off of the display stand!


The can't sleep colouring book from the works is very good. The Harry Potter one looks really good I might have to buy it and try it, colouring in is very addictive. It's a good outlet for stress though, it has helped with my depression.

freespirit66 I love your cutlery holders they look great, you can just about see the glitter in the fabric.

Hugs to everyone that needs them.

Clumsy ooh that funny turn doesn't sound very nice, I hope you feel a bit better now.

Baby boo welcome back, lovely to see you posting. I'm so sorry to hear about DH, how distressing for you all. I do hope his treatment is kind to him and it's effective. Yay for being a new nana, as others have said you must keep up posted on events! Look after yourself. x

freespirit I had a big cull of recipes recently, i'd kept lots that realistically I was never going to make. I also had lots of duplicates! Ha ha, sometimes I do want to finish DH off if he's annoyed me enough!

mrsinvisible ooh your food gifts sound lovely, and the tradition of a Boxing Day pantomime.

murie you shouldn't be worried, I agree it is very difficult to keep order and have a baby! I got really stressed when Wiggle was first born, I could just see my house getting untidy and lots of rooms needed cleaning but I struggled to find the time/energy. I've since learned to relax about it and all my mummy friends are in the same boat!

mrs-moneypenny have a lovely time at the cinema, let us know what the film is like.

Treasurequeen i'm glad to hear the colouring books are helping with your depression, it's nice to find something that makes you feel better naturally, that's how I felt when I had PND.

Money Mission lovely tree! :xmastree: How exciting!
