I'm joining this club. I think my best bet at the moment might be just to do Christmas entirely by candlelight as I'm sitting here in the biggest mess ever wondering what the bare minimum is that I can get away with.

I'd quite like to be all happy and calm and rested this Christmas. I think my family would like that too. It's not a speciality of mine. So hoover, tidy, wrap presents or sit and crochet with tv on?

I deffo need to put the bedding back on the bed though. It would be uncomfy on the bare mattress.

Happy Birthday Missmouse.

Yes, and letting the toddler nap too long. Must get off sofa.
Baking and cleaning to be done. Any second now.........

It isn't Christmas for four days. Plenty of time to shop, wrap and cook.

I can't imagine the sort of Christmas that needs 12 days of prepping.

I've just written yet another To Do list. They are multiplying. Top of the current list is "decant slow gin", which I think is the top priority Xmas Grin

Me too. I need to ice DDs birthday cake as well. 3 beds need making up. So much cleaning. Pictures to hang!

DH is doing the shop in a bit. I'm meant to be tidying the kitchen after breakfast but I'm just twatting about here

iamthewalrusgoogoogjoob · 22/12/2018 14:08

I haven't done any food shopping, or wrapping, or cleaning. It's 1am here. I plan on sleeping in.

VelociraptorRex · 22/12/2018 15:33

I have decanted the sloe gin. Therefore fuck all else is getting done, because I'm going to drink some of it Xmas Grin I have also iced he Christmas cake, which looks like the toddler did it nothing to do with the gin honest

Well done Velociraptor.

I'm sure there is something I should be doing but I'm too busy being pinned down by a cat.

Dh and Ds are at the football, and they think I'm rushing around, getting everything done. When in fact I'm lying on the sofa, watching Bloodline and scrolling through MN Grin
