I'm getting a bit nervous here. I'm due to fly out tomorrow morning at 7am (it's 10pm here now). There is some snow forecast, the pollution here in Northern China has been terrible all week (flights cancelled in some places). And to top it all off its foggy outside
Fingers crossed!!0 -

New jeans? IT'S CHRISTMAS!

Hehe, sure isn't the only answer?
I was gonna pick up one of those party boxes of King and my Dad said to me: "Sure they're dearer than a 20-pack bag in my local shop, you're better off buying the bag", and I said "Ah no you have to get the box, sure' it's Christmas!".
I'd love 7 brandies now, baby and crumble, but I shall hold out til the festivities begin on Christmas Day (driving early Christmas morning so I won't drink the night before).0 -
Christmas holidays have finally started for me
now I can fully enjoy the season. Going out tomorrow to catch up with some friends and to buy some appetizers and cakes for christmas. Saw a ton of good stuff in Dealz so I'm hoping to get a good few bits tomorrow.
We're so close you guys!!!0 -

I've just got my mam to buy for. Getting her a phone, not sure what one yet, she only decided this week what she wants.
I'm starting chemotherapy tomorrow so Christmas for me will be a quiet affair this year, Xmas Day on the sofa with movies and if I'm able for it, a nice steak dinner, see how I feel though.
Hope you're all enjoying the festivities and preparations

Good luck with the chemo, StripedBoxers. I'll be thinking of you.
A lot of people find the first few sessions to be pretty much okay sickness-wise, so hopefully you'll be up to having a nice dinner and be able to enjoy your Christmas. 0 -

You'd know it's Christmas out there anyway! Headed up to the shopping centre early and it was already very busy. The queue for gift cards was hilariously long. Went to Tesco then and the car park was full. There were big queues at the tills too. Supervalu has an area set up for turkey collections. The big day is nearly here!
I didn't get around to getting a Christmas duvet cover this year and my husband tried to surprise me with one last night but the shop was out of them. (He didn't realise that people buy these things much earlier than this!) So I went to Penneys today and grabbed a lovely red brushed cotton sheet, Christmas pillow cases (€2 for 2 pillow cases) and a little box of lights. It's my attempt at improvising our Christmas bedding! The lights can wrap around the head of the bed and I'll just throw a grey duvet cover on and it will be vaguely Christmassy.
Hope everyone is getting on really well with the prep. I have a lot of cleaning to do but hopefully by this evening most of us will have the feet up ready to enjoy ourselves.0 -
I've been mostly unwell for the last couple of weeks and have been way behind with my toy crafting. I spent a couple of nights up late this week working on stuff but was just too wrecked to get much done. And then was left feeling blue and miserable all the next day from tiredness. So today I stuck Disney Jr and left S to his own devices while I set up a sneaky hidden work station in the kitchen and set to work. Thankfully it's all mostly done, the paint is now drying and I can hopefully apply the lacquer tonight and have time to give it a second coat tomorrow morning if needed. So with no disasters they should be totally ready to go in his stocking on Xmas eve. 0
