  • Lovely Christmas Day spent with my family , mum and dad for dinner , son came round in the morning. Saw the GKs Christmas Eve and then FaceTimed Christmas Day . Boxing Day didn't get dressed , just put presents away and watched lots of films , spoke to relatives on FaceTime . Ordered a couple of things in the sales.
    Today took Dad shopping , spent sometime sorting his phone out. 
    Tomorrow, weather dependent am hoping to drive to my friends house who moved on the 17th December to a new build. We are hoping to do a short walk of her new area. It's only about 15miles away to drive. 

    Life is an adventure, never stop exploring.

  • That sounds lovely. I hope you manage to get there tomorrow and have a nice walk around. x

  • Trip to friends new house cancelled , too much snow where she is . Don't like driving in the snow. Should have been heading to the Lakes today for a weeks break and seeing in the New Year . Shall look forward to it next year instead .

    Sorry the trip was cancelled. We’d been forecast snow this morning but it hasn’t happened. I didn’t actually get up until after 11 though - watching a film in bed so I could have missed it 😏 but if it did show thankfully it didn’t stick.
    January spends - £587.58
  • Sorry about the trip. We've got a little snow but it's fading away now x

  • Glad to hear you had a lovely family Christmas, such a shame your trip was cancelled, we have wind and rain down here and it's freezing cold but no snow

  • Been for a trip out to the local shopping centre and bought my cards for next year , the shop was almost deserted the time I was in there but started getting busier as I was paying. Also bought 2 new photograph frames as the DGC broke one last time they were here , it was an accident . 
    Also got a pack of skinny whips that I keep reading about just had one and it was lovely . Will keep them for a treat , weighed myself and put 1lb on so not bad for Christmas Day and Boxing Day , back to sensible eating now . 
    Having a quick today round , did think about taking the decorations down but will do later in the week now . 
    It's sooooo cold .
