@Imbluedalale Great gesture with the spoon of strength, you've a brilliant turn of phrase, loved the digging a hole to hell 😂
I've the bulk of the morning over me now. It pays to start at 7.30am.
The boss brought a load of boxes of sweets in, you can't move here for chocolate.
I've never been that fussed on Jamie Dornan as an actor. Never watched 50 shades but I find I can stick him better the more he does. I quite enjoyed The Tourist but when I see things where he is interviewed as himself he seems like a really sound guy - but then most of us here in NI are!

Oh well I’m getting a flight over pronto if there’s chocolate! Xx

Oh dear that you were woken by the diggers! Do you mean this Mr Grey? I've read the books but haven't seen the films. I like Jamie Dornan though apart from when he played a serial killer in The Fall (although it was a really good series!).

Your cheese platter sounds perfect, slobs cheese platter or not 😂. That's good you can see the positives of your Christmas day despite not being with your children although it's OK to be sad too. I'm sure they'll be missing you so much too, even if they struggle to express it or feel it's being disloyal to their father to actually communicate that at the moment. Will your daughter have to do all the cooking or will your ex MIL do it?

Yes, I can't really decide whether to ask Amazon for a replacement for the book or not, it's only slightly affected. I'll see how it looks later I think.

I love that you sent the man from the home a wooden spoon for strength. That's so lovely 😍😍.

That’s him @RaspberryBeretxx , I loved him in 50 shades of grey. I couldn’t be bothered to do all that sexual stuff with him though as haven't got a dermatology appointment till Jan now so legs not shaved but it would be nice if Mr grey sat on my sofa so I could just stare at him. Mr Grey replica has now gone in his van , he’s left behind Phil Mitchel and Ian Beale so the appeal has gone now. It’s a shame because I even brushed my hair and put a bra on incase you know he may have knocked on my door to check my pipes or something . Never mind
I think it will be my ex MIL and her daughter that do the cooking .
I would definitely ask Amazon for a replacement once a book gets wet all the pages dry hard xx

Good morning @RaspberryBeretxx , how are you today? I was hoping for a lay in but the diggers have been outside since 8am digging a hole into hell by the sounds of it .
I haven’t ordered my second set of tie backs yet I’m going to order them after Christmas now.
If I were you I’d ring Amazon and ask they send a replacement , they normally really good with that.
I’m just very grateful I’m not in a hotel for Christmas Day so it will be hard being without my children but I’m thankful I have a home. My cheese platter probably won’t look that amazing 😂it will just be some crackers, blobs of cheese and piccalilli and maybe some pickled onions . It will probably look like a ‘slobs’ cheese platter 😂xx

Good Morning Spoonies and Welcome to Nowhere Tuesday!
It's my last day in the office until New Year and it's pretty quiet. I'm taking a half day as I have to sort getting a new monitor home and don't fancy doing that later in the day as traffic is gridlock here in Belfast. Too many cars, not enough road.
@Imbluedalale They were really lovely suggestions for @Munchyseeds2 and a really lovely gesture. Something small can go a very long way for someone in need.
@BeNavyCrab that really is a beautiful card and the description is even better, I need to educate myself on these crafting terms/techniques as it all sounds so interesting.
@RaspberryBeretxx Get onto Amazon about that book, if they do want a return they give you over 2 months to get it back to them if at all. They might just send another with no hassle of a return.
@Apolloneuro I hope you wake up a bit brighter today. Nothing wrong with having a bit of wallow in our moods, I had many days like that last week. Just glad to be feeling myself again this week.

Good morning @nornironlady , how are you today? Happy nothing Tuesday ❤️
Ohhh your last day in office I hope it goes quick for you. You’ll be able to relax at home tomorrow drinking lots of tea.
You’re definitely right about something small going a long way in times of need. I got a pocket hug whilst I was in hospital and it’s still in my purse 2 years later. I got the man resident as he’s back in the crisis house , I got him a wooden spoon sent as he knew the story behind it as we was laughing one day about a wooden spoon just being in my suitcase so I got one sent to the house and said ‘here’s your own strength spoon’ . He said it’s the loveliest thing anybody has ever done for him and it brought a tear to his eye 🥹🥹🥹xx

Can I pick your collective brains please?

One of DDs good friends is currently sectioned and will be in hospital over Christmas....I'd like to send her something and was thinking of a Sanctuary gift set?
What do you think?
Any other idea welcome!

So sorry for your DD’s friend. How old is she? A sanctuary gift set sounds lovely. Also all of @Imbluedalale suggestions sound lovely too.

Today was a good day and I was able to get some tidying done. Just waiting for Amazon to deliver one more present tomorrow and then it's all done and wrapped. We are leaving for my parents on Wednesday, with a stop off at the hospital for my scan. So we're hoping to get most of the packing organised tomorrow morning before my husband has to take his mum to her hospital appointment. Poor lady isn't feeling great today and we are hoping that she'll be a little bit better tomorrow.

All the Spoonies Christmas food talk is getting me excited. I'm not sure what the plan for us will be yet. I think we will got shopping for it with my Mum and help with stocking up their place. They usually do their shopping by bus, but having an influx of four more mouths means more food. It's going to be easier to bring it back in our car, than for them to struggle with a granny trolley and hauling it into the bus.

I managed to finish off another card today. I had previously die cut the panel. Today I backed it onto another bit of card that had double sided adhesive sheet on it. I then had fun trying to corral the red glitter, to only stick inside the poinsettia flowers and not the surrounding areas. I was mostly successful and then once the red was done, I filled in the rest of the areas with clear glitter. I backed the panel onto strips of green mirror card. Matted onto some Christmas patterned paper and added a sentiment by using the outline left after cutting the sentiment out of a plaque. I was happy with how it all turned out, though it's looking a bit like a glitter blizzard swept through the cabin. 😂

Hi @BeNavyCrab , I’m pleased to hear that today has been a good day for you.
You sound very organised with your presents. I love Amazon it’s lethal though. I ordered some pink and grey magnetic tie backs for my bedroom curtains which came today. I opened them and was about to put them on when I realised that I had 2 bedroom windows so needed 2 sets 🤦‍♀️. I’ve been quite impressed with Amazon deliveries lately.
I hope your scan at the hospital goes ok, I will be thinking of you and sending big hugs.
Your Christmas at your parents sounds wonderful I can’t wait to hear all about it. My mum and dad are going to my sisters for Christmas (the one who doesn’t talk to me) and my brother and his family are going to be there too, I think my mum feels guilty that I’m going to be on my own hence her coming on Boxing Day but it’s fine I’ve had months to get my head around it and it’s only a day at the end of the day .
Your card you made today is absolutely stunning , it’s made me want to get my craft box out but I’m going to head to bed instead as feeling tired. I hope you manage to sleep well today lovely , big hugs xxx

Afternoon @BeNavyCrab , how are you feeling today? ❤️
That’s so lovely that you took some toys to the food bank. I remember when I worked at the bank every year at Christmas you’d get a day off to volunteer at the radio station to help pick and pack presents for children who were in care or who’s family were struggling. There was different sections like 1-2 year olds , 5-8 year olds and they was split into gender. There was never hardly any gifts for teen boys which made me feel really sad so since then I always make sure to get a gift for a teen boy and donate although I haven’t managed to do that this year but I will donate through the website instead. It was heartwarming though to see people arriving with presents and donating them.
Im laughing at your row tipping over backwards at the Batman movie 😂
I’m quite boring with cheese Aswell I only like mature cheese or I like cheese with chilli in it even though I’m not a big fan of spice. Oh and I love pickled onions especially Garners pickled onions. I’m also prone to a nice posh biscuit I love grandma Wilds biscuits xx

Hi @Munchyseeds2 , I have been sectioned although mine was voluntary for 7 weeks . Here’s some ideas that really helped me cope whilst I was in there:
Books /colouring books, craft set (it gets very boring in there and time is the only thing you have on your hands)
Pamper set - face masks , hair mask , sanctuary set is a good shout
Treats -chocolate , nice biscuits
Fluffy socks as tiled floor
Nice pjs
A hug in a box (teddy bear in a box)

My mum and dad are coming on Boxing Day , my mum said she’s going to make me a Christmas dinner which will be nice .
I always used to make a turkey crown for Christmas Day and my dad makes his own sausage meat and then makes pigs in blankets which are lovely. And it definitely has to be roasties for me too although my daughter prefers mash. I love a nice pudding too M&S do a really nice raspberry roulade that’s yummy and obs the iced Madeira cake.
What do you do in Boxing Day normally?
Have you finished all your Christmas shopping?
Regarding you dreaming a lot have you been under stress lately or changed any medication? That’s usually a sign of lots of dreams .
I’m sleeping a lot better thank you , I’ve slept too much this week tbh I’m tired all the time 😂
Ohhhh your day tomorrow sounds perfect I love going out for Christmas lunch. I hope you have a lovely time .
Just going to have a jacket potato and watch Netflix . Had a nice bath and fresh loungewear on so all relaxed xx

Show quote history

I’m so glad you’re sleeping better. I wonder if feeling so tired is just your body’s way of catching up and healing a bit.

I haven’t changed anything I don’t think that may have caused the dreams - maybe hormonal (damn my 40s!). Probably fairly stressed though (it’s a bit unavoidable isn’t it 😞!) so maybe it’s that. I’m sure I’ll get a good night tonight 😴.

I think I’ve just about finished Christmas shopping. I’m at that point where I need to lay it all out and check what Ive actually got!

that’s really nice your parents will do you Christmas dinner on Boxing Day. We often go up to my uncles which is lovely to see that side of the family.

enjoy your jacket potato and Netflix. That sounds so lovely and relaxed.

A gammon joint with it sounds lovely and you might have leftovers of everything for Boxing Day.

🤣🤣 at ”well that’s it for another year”! I totally get you saying that 🤪. It is all such an effort. My house is a bit small and cluttered so it feels like quite a lot to add presents and all the general Christmas paraphernalia!

we usually have turkey on the day and maybe just some snacks/canapes first. Then Christmas pudding and a few other options (we are big on pudding). My dad will generally try and eat a bit of each pudding. Do you normally do a turkey? I definitely like roast potatoes with a roast. How about you? I’ll have a look for the iced Madeira cake tomorrow!

ive had a good day thanks, i had lots of dreams last night so hoping for a better sleep tonight! How are you sleeping now?

Meeting up with my boss tomorrow but for Christmas lunch so that’ll be nice. Hope you have a relaxed evening and feel better with the cold. Xx

Ohhh I never thought of getting canapé things but I’ll definitely get something I get put in the over. My dad’s getting me a small gammon joint too so I can have breads and meats. I might get a posh bottle of lemonade from M&S and something sweet for afters hopefully they might have the iced Madeira cake in stock.
What do you normally have to eat on Christmas Day? Do you have 3 courses?
I’m glad your roast was lovely. Do you prefer mash or roast potatoes?
It’s a lot of organising for one day isn’t it. My children hate me saying it but every year on Christmas Day after pudding I say ‘well that’s it for another year’ I can’t help it 😂

Glad you’re feeling a little better this morning @Imbluedalale . I have some of those sachets of ginger tea from a Chinese shop too. A bit spicy for me too but works if you put a little bit in with lemon juice and honey. Sone sort of snacking platter for Christmas Day sounds a good plan, I bet M&S will have something nice. Maybe some canapé type things to go in the oven too? I know you aren’t drinking but I’d go for some alcohol free Buck’s Fizz or a posh bottle of fizzy drink. And maybe some nice Mini cakes or donuts or something for pudding 🤔.

i had a lovely roast thanks. I think we are going to my parents (just up the road) for Christmas with my brother and his family but I haven’t confirmed with DP yet for various reasons 🤦🏻‍♀️. I’m a bit stressed about it all 🙈🙈.

I so hope you get to do your roast chicken and homemade stuffing balls for all your children together soon. Sending a big hug 🤗.

@BeNavyCrab the smoked mackerel sounds amazing. I love smoked mackerel pate too. And pickled onions 💕💕.

wow, @nornironlady £5.50 for the radio times! I guess most people just buy it once a year so they’ve got to make all their profit in December 🤣. Yellowstone is on my list to watch so glad to know your enjoyed it! That’s so sweet that your son’s favourite is coronation street 😍. What an amazing present for your ds, I bet he will be thrilled!
