Okay so I really cannot afford much more Christmas

[Dillydaydreaming]

All DS's pressies are done. As it's his birthday today do have had to do that too.
Still have a couple of pressies to buy but can't afford extra food as well for Boxing Day.

No matter how prepared I think I am it's never organised lol.

Why does money go so quickly?

I can totally relate to that! We get paid tomorrow & will be buying last bits plus dd2's birthday presents for the 28th out of that as well & then what's left has to streeeeeeetch until mid January ish! Am quite pleased with my planning though, hopefully we won't need much of anything between now and then

Just make a cake or cakes and have as nice a dinner as poss...you could buy extra crackers in sale? Lots out there atm

Yes it will be fine, Xmas dinner at Mums so no probs there. Just had a minor wobble when I realised I still have 4 people to buy pressies for.

I mean I have all year ...... it's not exactly a case of "ooh Xmas" is it

Nope we will have a lovely Xmas and eat whatever we have on Boxing Day. Am making a huge stuffing roll as a donation to Xmas dinner and there will be masses left over. Tis delicious cold with pickles
