Morning All

Mr A shop done so hopefully I won't need to go out again today. I took 5 bin bags to the CS yesterday as I already had 2 and then DD decided to sort her clothes out and filled 3 bin bags. I didn't even look what was in them - I just got rid of them!

Lots to do today before my family arrive at 6 but I'm hoping to have the house sorted by 3 at the latest then start cooking them although I think I may make my apple crumble now and then that's out of the way as that is the only baking I'm doing. I may do some jellies as well so I need to do them now too.

Natty that's awful

Have a good day all

Hugs

Morning

DS arrived home at 2.15 am, the dog was a nightmare and wouldnt settle but we got into bed at 2.30.

I am not really tired, suspect this is going to catch up with me later. Off to get ready for paid stuff, have left a list of jobs for the menfolk but there really isnt a lot to do. Will battle my way through Li@l for a few last things on the way home.

Have a good day everyone x

Morning lovelies :wave:

Got a few pressies to wrap, a huge ham to cook (or rather take to DH's cousin's house for them to cook as too big for the tiny caravan cooker:rotfl:) boys' present to hide in the garage and that's about all! Just heard Small and Tiny squawking so let's go!

Have a fabulous time everyone xxx :xmassign:

Morning all. Sorry but there are too many pages to catch up on so I hope you're all ok and ready for the big day tomorrow.

Yesterday I did ironing, dailies and changed the bedding. Today I've done some more paperwork and the dailies.

Paid stuff now.

Have a great day everyone.

Christmas Eve - FRANTIC FRENZY

• [STRIKE]Spend half an hour doing NOTHING!!.. absolutely nothing!!!! Just sit.. and relax with a drink and a treat![/STRIKE]
• Bake some mince pies and tarts etc.. yummies!!! I know it's a bit late but if I can do it then you can too
• Mix yorky pud batter for tomorrow and pop in the fridge overnight .. it is so much better if you leave it to stew.. quick whisk and then use as normal
• Prepare any other bits.. stuffing, salad etc. Make starters before bed.. sneaky but a great idea! - Just need a couple of things out to defrost.
• Is the cake iced, can it be eaten without the icing on at all?
• Wash pots before bed!
• Check when payments need to be made, if possible set them up to go on the right date through the bank.
• Bath time to wear everyone out..
• Quick whizz over the clutter and carpets.

Writing a packing list for DD and realised she goes away on Saturday until Tue/Wed which is 3-4 days of clothes, then goes away Thursday until Sunday which is another 3 days of clothes. So on Wednesday I'm going to wash/dry what she brings home and just put it back in her suitcase No separate list to be written for that, I'll just count that she has enough of everything going in. I think it's done, but I'll check before she packs it, although I love my lists actually seeing the stuff is what jogs my memory as to whats been forgotten.

Right, I best get moving. :wave:

Making progress. Should have picked a few more bits of holly etc to do the arrangements as it's raining very large cold drops at present. Sitting here recovering from a not-too-bad trip into town enjoying a C0sta. Traffic was building up as I came home.
