    I do like it. It can be frustrating on occasions but having a disability can be funny. At least my disability in social situations most of the time. I'm certainly not saying that I would wish some other disabilities on other people. Of course don't. As for Asperger's, I'm actually not sure if I would 'wish' that on anyone else or would wish it on everyone - though, from my perspective, it's not too bad. It has its downsides - procrastination, which people generally do from time to time but I think I tend to do more - and executive dysfunctioning:D - I do like that word but I'm making fun - I have a disorder:D:D:rotfl::rotfl: - but I'm happy overall with it. I have no choice anyway:rotfl::rotfl:.

    Can't you just reorder on another account and return the first?

    I paid part gift card, so she refunded it all onto a gift card so I'd get it straight away to reorder...

    How strange is that, was thinking of you just yesterday even looked on the xmas thread to see if you had posted there:o Hope you are ok x

    I'm good thanks. Just been hectically busy at work and at home, plus was doing yet more exams. So haven't been on the forum much.

    I decided to leave work for tonight and pop in to see how people are doing.

    I hope you are well?

    Fortunately I enjoy my job so don't mind the extra work that I do in the evenings and over the weekends.

    I bought the last of the presents I needed today. So the next step is wrapping things.

    Me and my son are looking after my brother's 3 year old twin boys this weekend, so will put up the Christmas tree, but not decorate it yet, and plan to get them helping with the fluffing out of the branches. It should be fun. Once the tree is up I can start wrapping as then I'll have somewhere to put the presents without worrying about the paper tearing :xmastree:

    How are your own :xmassmile plans coming along? Did you find anything nice in the sales today?

    We spoke about Xmas when we were out.

    We are not putting decorations up (as they are all at the other house). We have decided that we will get the kids some stocking fillers and that is it. OH bought a drill today on my credit card... so that is him done. I don't want anything. So just the nephew and nieces to do..... :D:D
