It's Christmas Eve eve!!!

Ds1 went into work early he decided at 4am he's sooner do overtime this side of his shift as his team were behind after a move round.
Went out with work colleagues last night which was lovely
Hoping dad and step mum will be round today also hoping Dh finishes early as it's his last day before the holidays.

I hope everyone's plans are where they need to be if not please delegate instead of stressing it is your Christmas as well and you don't need to do all the work.
Lw glad your solstice celebrations went really well I hope you have a great Yuletide
Gilly welcome back. The wedding sounds amazing and I'm glad things are doing alright for you.

Morning all,

Utterly exhausted. The house move took over 9 hours in total, removals company were useless - I swear I did more packing and carrying than them. Grandma staying with us for a few days until we get her house straight - for one person she has the possessions you would expect for a family of 6. Time to get the Kon Marie book out I think....

Today will be spent at her new house sorting, unpacking, ringing utilities etc. All with DS in tow as no childcare for him. I can already envisage the tantrums. Roll on 7pm tonight when we go out for a meal and some vino!

Hugs aplenty here, help yourself xx

Welcome back gilly nice to "see" you xx

ATB I'd have been ordering the removals men around! xx

Much needed day at home here. Not stressing because we'll all be together which is the main thing, but I do have some all - over cleaning to do. WM already on with piggy bedding in and I'll work on the hooman washing basket after

I'm going to get the big vac out and "dust" with the nozzle rather than flapping around with a cloth and making it worse.

Dehumidifier is making conservatory feel a better place.

Will also do upstairs bathrooms and I forgot one present to wrap for mums foster boys, small world but they are being adopted by DS best friends mums work colleague!

Right, I'll go flip the bread I'm trying to stale for breadcrumbs for the stuffing, then stick the gammon in soak!

Hi all


Hope everyone's last minute preparations are going well! I started wrapping on Wednesday and was planning to finish last night. Got home to find OH had used all the sellotape and not told me!! So he is under strict instructions to buy more today, as well as doing a run for veg, and delivering presents / cards.


Well he did decide to take a week off :rotfl:


Probably won't get on again so Merry Christmas everyone!!
