30.1We have had a lovely chilled out day doing a bit of shopping and we even had time to stop for lunch.

Lovely to have a bit of a breather in a busy world.

29.1

The Christmas decorations have been packed away (bah humbug!) and I have been tidying up cupboards and drawers. Today the booze cupboard was sorted…. although The Mister will not let me bin some of the booze bottles that he brought with him when we moved in together. They are about 15 years old and unopened and come from Peru so I assume would taste absolutely rank. I reckon if I binned them secretly he wouldn’t notice.

This evening we went to a friends house for chilli and games. As ever Cards Against Humanity is one of the favourites… especially after a few drinks. Our friend Emma won and we only had to explain one term to her which makes a change!

27.1

This evening was our annual trip to the panto which was staged by our local theatre group GADOC. It was brilliant – really professional and there were some outstanding performances.

Only one or two of our party were less than keen but they are not am dram fans at the best of times!

26.1Boxing Day kicked off with the annual charity swim at Cobo. There were at least a couple of thousand people there. I haven’t been able to swim for a few weeks as I have been busy, the weather has been bad and I have been poorly, however it was lovely!

This evening we popped into my Dad’s side of the family for an hour or so before going to my cousin Richard and his wife Liz’s house for tea and games. It was lovely to see so many of my cousins and the kids had a fabulous time haring around together.

I ended the evening my successfully completely by Christmas jigsaw 🙂

25.5What a lovely day.

What was less fun was being invaded in bed by two very excited children at 7am. I could hear them earlier than this shouting at Alexa and asking her what time it was as they had been told they were not allowed in our room until 7am! Once Father Christmas presents had been opened and the children dispatched to the lounge to watch TV I had a couple hours more sleep!

The day was quite relaxed and we dragged the kids out for a very short work. My sister and family, Dad and our friend Kayleigh all came over in the afternoon and we had a lovely meal at 5ish. Lots of hard work but very much worth it.

We have such a lovely family and friends and are very fortunate. Happy Christmas everyone x

24.1

Christmas Eve and I spent most of the day prepping food and getting stuff ready for Christmas Day.

The kids left out the traditional gifts for Santa and his reindeer and The Little Miss left out a couple of extra notes. Excitement levels are high right now!

23.1This afternoon The Mister and I took the kids to see father Christmas at a local garden centre. He was absolutely fantastic although the kids did seem to think that he had a rather familiar voice!

This evening the kids went for a sleepover at Grandpa’s whilst we went out for dinner with lovely friend for my birthday. I was so nice to go out after such a busy few weeks.

22.1

The weather was awful this morning – torrential rain but it was fun to go out for a very muddy walk. The kids put on full waterproofs and proceeded to slide down the hills. Great fun.

22.222.322.4This afternoon I went for my annual haircut… I pretty much only go once a year and it is lovely to catch up with my friend Anya when I do. I also had my nails done. It was nice to be treated 🙂

Betty is absolutely delighted that the fire has been lit… she has resumed position!
