    Was in the work canteen today and instead of a sandwich decided to have a dinner and they had brussels sprouts!

    I know I'm a day early for marking this Rudolph Day but I thought of this thread as soon as I saw them 🤣

    Hard to believe that there used to be a time where there wouldn't be many houses with their trees up or all decked out in their Christmas PJs for the toy show :D


    Happy Rudolph day!

    All going to plan it will be. Hoping to have keys in the next 2-3 weeks. We were up north last weekend and got a start on our new decorations.

    Otherwise I'll be helping my MIL with her's which will be up before the toy show.

    Missed Rudolph day, thought it was today. Although I did have Christmas FM Classical on for a bit so that probably counts for something.

    So frosty here this morning. What a festive Rudolph day.

    I have Christmas drinks with friends tonight what better day to do it. Can’t do it in December as it’ll be too close to the arrival of elf number 2 so we are doing it today for the day of sport that’s in it

    Only one Saturday one this year, sad times.

    Sundays are a good day as well I guess.

    I use to joke in work that Jan 25th should be a festival for eating all remaining treats in the house while watching Christmas Movies you didn't get a chance to watch over Christmas, I dubbed it "Electric Treatmas" (trademark pending) 🤣

    I've just gone to bed after watching a chridstmas movie I hadn't got round to watching and feasting on celebrations.

    To be fair I had just suffered through little elf's birthday party at a trampoline park....

    Just a quick heads up that we have Rudolph Day 1 of 11 for 2024 tomorrow.

    Anyone anything Christmas related planned?

    I rarely do anything for the January one being honest as we're barely out of season so may stretch to wearing Christmas socks or suchlike just to mark it.

    Maybe the canteen in work will have stuffing with the dinner and I'll get a turkey of ham and stuffing sandwich. That's the height of it at the moment though.

    Listened to Merry Christmas Everyone by Shaking Stevens on the request of Elf 1 and we watched Buster the Bus Christmas special on Youtube while getting him ready for bed.

    Youtube still bringing the Christmas specials.

    I'm watching the Virgin River Christmas episodes. There's cheesy drama and a Christmas tree decorating competition. Perfect brainless festive tv.

    Normally we'd go out for dinner or a few drinks or something but I'm being strict with myself at the moment to lose some of the extra padding I've put on recently so said I'd rather stick with that than indulge so soon into it. Its already working so when I see that happening its all the encouragement I need so missing out on treating myself isn't that big a deal.

    Ta for asking btw!
