yes i know i am a lazy slattern!! but i just cant get into the christmas spirit this year.
i have put up the tree, and found the stockings. but thats it!!!

i went on sunday to do some shopping, shops were packed, and i couldn't get round because i had the pushchair, (people pushing, boiling hot shops, ds crying etc..) so ended up in starbucks!! then headed home.

i hate all the fighting over stuff on shelves in shops, i hate the food shop fiasco.... do people really need all that food????

oh god i really need a large dose of the christmas spirit (vodka!!) me thinks.
are you all prepared???
anyone in the same boat as me???
if not someone please lie to make me feel better!!!!!

And I'm halfway through my wrapping!
(Having bought 98% of all presents online)

Dh is a control freak.
He has it all organised by Decembewr the 1st.
Left to me, I'd be in your shoes.

ANyway, it's more festive if you leave it till the last minute. Ahem.

My poor postman was muttering "online, online, online" to himself in a deranged way this morning as he staggered off down my path .

I wouldn't online shop now tbh

can someone look after the dcs while you shop on your own? preferably in the week ?

Im dreading the food shopping, i have finished the rest most of which i got on the net. We don't bother too much with all the food (just the turkey), we buy our veg on x-mas eve.

Online shopping most def. Apart from a few stocking fillers and the christmas cards all my christmas has been done online. presents food new tree lights the works.

I am ready apart from the actual cooking and the table centre piece.
