I don't know where we're going, but I know where I am (part 8)

GoneHome

Relaxing fireside, after a brilliant night in Tipp with the relations, having the hair of the dog now, one or two bottles of beer and an early night, no work tomorrow so all is good in the world

Up to my tits in DIY at the moment. But had a cracking day before that.

Flatpack?

Felix Jones is God.

Having a few Belgian beers... 11.7% so I won't be drinking too many as tomorrow is a school day.

Putting a nice silent digital timer on the immersion. The old mechanical one was loud. And putting new trim at the bottom of the kitchen cupboards.
Too much detail?!

Sitting down with feet up watching Irelands fittest family . Not a bad day , dinner over , grave done for Christmas now , hope all you nice people enjoy your Sunday evening

This time next week will probably be the start of panic stations for a lot of folks

I don't have panic stations re Xmas...I do have full blown alcohol laden meltdowns on Dec 23rd that have required hospitalisation on 2 occasions and walking out of work for a month....I really don't do Xmas

I hear you , son here would rather go asleep now and wake up when it's all over tbh .
I think for a lot of people it's to be endured and just get through it as best we can .

Yes it seems a lot of people are of that way of thinking but I must say the atmosphere in Clonmel yesterday and today was absolutely lovely, a great buzz about the place , in the pub last night with all the relations and a big trad/singing session going on if you could only bottle the goodwill and happy moment it'd keep you going for months, it was spectacular. Better again there's 17 of us heading off to the Canaries just after xmas on our usual Winter holiday

Oh I agree with you re the buzz and peoples sense of spirit in the lead up to Christmas , but I think the day itself can be a very lonely , down time for many , whether they're surrounded with company or not GH .

Enjoy the holiday , sounds great !

Oh I agree with you on that, I always find it's quite a boring kind of day, the build up to it and the few days afterwards are always far more enjoyable, the day itself is really only to be endured for what it is

Is 8.5 hours of heating excessive? In the depths of December? Asking for a um friend

whats the point of having heating if you dont use it when its cold out?


Did you actually do your 1st bio. shot ? Hope all goes well. Bet Harry could have a very wild week for the sticker price of your fix

Fireside post nap. Lovely road trip earlier. Getting ready for dinner.

Ya and I had to do a loading shot so had two shots 😂, ya did it last night full of bubbles. Said fuuck it now here goes. Got a bit of a fright when it popped but it was fine then the second one hurt a lot more and bled a little so maybe I did it wrong but no bruising and I’m not sick today, god I used to dread taking the methotrexate. Felt a bit sad starting them with the black label warning but sure look what’s done is done


I’m in bed now living the dream

Well done. I tend to feel off for 36 hours after doing mine. Hopefully your one doesnt do that.
