I'm just drinking my first cuppa & eating breakfast, in my kitchen spot. The only noise is the fridge humming away to itself and the boiler - bliss 😊

The girls will be up shortly though. They're off Christmas shopping for me, together...could be interesting! I've given them a small list of things to pick up too but it doesn't matter if they don't get those things.

I'm going to spend the day finishing off my current set of peg people, and doing some festive baking 😋 Mince pies, stollen, and a something else but not sure what yet. I'll maybe put the marzipan on my dad's Christmas cake too.

Dd2 has maths homework she wants me to look at with her, so we'll do that when they get in. And I'll suggest to dd1 that she maybe starts her homework over this week - it's due after Christmas - so that it's out of the way & she doesn't need to think about it for 2 weeks.

There's a large-ish joint of pork in the slow cooker for tea. Not sure what we'll have with it but maybe not a roast this week. I'll see what the girls fancy.

Later on, early showers, write the few Christmas cards I want for work, and then a nice early night ready for the last week at school 💤💤

What about all of you? 🎅

Just sitting on sofa half watching West Ham v Wolves after eating boring breakfast (I'm trying to lose a few pounds before Christmas), drinking tea and scrolling this thread!

Will be cooking pork belly for family later and eating my calorie controlled version telling myself it's the same 😏

Then writing out lists to help me remember what o have to do this coming week. Got a funny feeling something different is happening a week on Monday. 🤔

Afternoon everyone!

Just on the sofa with DP watching the football and giving him a belly rub with my hand and the dog a belly rub with my foot! DSD and DSS are playing darts really badly next to us!

Went to watch DS1 play football this morning with the dog and now both my boys have gone to their dad’s.

We had Raclette for lunch which was delicious, left over cottage pie for dinner after the kids go their mums.

We’ll watch the darts tonight as we’re off to ally pally tomorrow with 4 of our friends! We’re on the tables which is cool, I’ve not been on the boring boring tables before! Keep an eye out for me on the telly! 😀
