Evening all! I'm not sure if this will be the last or the penultimate thread, but here goes!

Nero, O2 appears to be working now (conveniently now I'm home and don't need mobile data!).

Philomena LOL I'm making my den all Christmassy on the game too. Tell her that photo I paid 50 gems to take at some random place my kid told me about hahaha it was a waste of gems but what can you do lol

Fluffy LOL not liking the animation style is understandable. There's quite a few movies I can't watch because I don't like the animation. I know someone who outlawed The Polar Express in her house because 'Ghosts are evil' which I don't understand at all. There's a lot of movies I don't like but my kids still get to watch lol

Wheelie l wish my DSis would butt out but she is so bossy! She just had a go at me for changing Mum's bed 🤔 l changed it a week ago and it needed changing. I did the bed and washed it and hung it out , she didn't have to do anything with it! DH reckons she is guilty because she doesn't do anything so she is defensive😜l don't want her to do anything with it but l am in the wrong. If l left the bed that would be wrong too! I can't win!PSB l agree with wheelie your meals are to die for 😃
Acey well done on the painting! Lovely Santa throw it looks really soft😃 glad. Your back is better, yes to the hormones softening your ligaments during pregnancy, take it a little bit easier sweet❤️ you are so not a wimp!!! PSB you are right that is the case!

Fluffy hope you are feeling better and watching SCD , l want Lauren to go through because Ashley is a Prof and it isn't fair. Not her fault I know but nit fair🤔
Right better shift have a great evening everyone and a good night sleep ❤️

FrangelicoCandyBoughs · 09/12/2018 19:44

Have any of you watched the Christmas chronicles? I thought it was terrible, but seem to be going against the grain!

Philomensapie · 09/12/2018 19:46

Wheelie she says it looks like old style AJ. Have you updated it?

Mrsmadevans · 09/12/2018 19:47

Not seen it Wheelie but will have to have a look now lol! Xmas Grin

WheelchairWoes · 09/12/2018 19:49

Mrs It's adorable lol

I agree with your DH it sounds like she's feeling guilty and taking it all out on you! Sleepy Tight and I hope you have a good one!!

Frange No idea what it is!

Ohhh Philomena Does she play the app? I only play it online. That's why it looks so different I bet. My daughter keeps telling me to get the app but I like doing it on my computer from animaljam itself lol

Mrsmadevans · 09/12/2018 19:49

Ashley danced a stormer then l can't see the judges getting rid of her in a hurry ! Xmas Grin

Mrsmadevans · 09/12/2018 19:51

Thank you Wheelie , l will prob be in and out of the thread all this evening lol can't resist replying lol Xmas Grin

Philomensapie · 09/12/2018 19:53

Yes, she plays the app. That must be why. I love the snowman in your den too!

Philomensapie · 09/12/2018 19:56

I love it when Jamaa goes all Christmassy! Xmas Grin

WheelchairWoes · 09/12/2018 19:58

Mrs OMG I know how you feel lol I usually say 'ok I'm going to bed' and then sit in bed posting stuff instead

Philomena Tell her I'll give the app a try and see what I think. I'll probably do most of my playing online though. I like the big screen to decorate my stuff. The snowman is my favorite thing. My youngest daughter traded that to me for a pair of red striped socks for her character lol

Philomensapie · 09/12/2018 20:06

Frankly, I'd rather have the snowman! Xmas Grin DD says to tell you that AJ's 3D on the app.

DD will go to bed at 9.30. 😴

WheelchairWoes · 09/12/2018 20:12

Philomena Oooooh I might avoid the app a lot then? 3D kind of makes me sick to my stomach lol I love when Jmaa gets all Christmas. I'm wanting to become a member so I can buy more house decorations lol

You should have seen my place at Halloween! LOL

I'm downloading the app though! So tell DD I will give it a good try

Mrsmadevans · 09/12/2018 20:55

Just having a pkt of Sprout favoured crisps, as you do , l offered the family a taste but surprisingly had no takers Xmas Grin LIGHTWEIGHTS lol Xmas Grin

AceyMac13 · 09/12/2018 20:58

Evening! Grin
Going to try and catch up briefly whilst I don’t feel so woozy. Apologies if I miss anyone out!
Going to run a bath in a minute, try to wash this bloody paint off me, it’s all in my hair too. 😂

Wheelie- thank you treacle! I love it too, makes me feel all warm and fuzzy and festive Xmas Grin
I’m so glad I have paddy too, he’s wonderful 😁❤️
Bless you, it’s not easy being a Klutz and accident prone 😂 I somehow I kneed myself in the face when putting my trousers on earlier 😂🤦🏻‍♀️🤷🏻‍♀️
I think it’s a good idea you get hubby to take the kids to the dentist, you need time for yourself too in between being an awesome wife and mama!

Firefly - thank you lovely! I figure there won’t be much decorating being done after thisfor the next 18 years or so 😂Grin

Wreck - Jesus wept what a beautiful photo! No I’m not jealous at all..😂

Mrs - thank you lovely! I definitely need to take it a wee bit easier and stop acting like Wonder Woman 😂 the throw is so soft, it’s like a giant winter hug 😁😍 your Dsis sounds like a nightmare, ignore her 😁 have a lovely evening watching SCD 😁

I was having a melt down earlier as the stretch marks are appearing, saying how horrendous I look and paddy was just like ‘nah that’s impossible’ my heart is so full of love for him and Addie, I can’t take it 😍😁❤️
Addie is currently using her muscles and giving me a right kicking!

Right, time for a bath and hopefully we can get through another episode of the marvellous Mrs. Maisel before bed Grin

Have a grand evening everyone!

AceyMac13 · 09/12/2018 21:00

Somebody thinks it’s play time 😁Grin

Acey Marv has white on his tummy?!?!!?! I had no idea!! Lilah does too right in the same place! They totally are just alike! I love it!

I often will be in bed with my phone and drop it on my face and end up with bruises and everyone is like 'What did you do!' and I'm all 'I dropped my phone' lol

I also hate the dentist and I have no teeth so why on earth should I subject myself to that torture lol husband is their daddy so he can go.

Mrs I'm not sure I'd like sprout flavored crisps. But that's just because my stomach is so crazy they might mess it up lol

AceyMac13 · 09/12/2018 21:17

Tonight’s bath bomb. And some more of Addie’s adorable clothes - we are gradually sorting through them and putting them away by size and item, so there will be many more pics over the coming days 😁

AceyMac13 · 09/12/2018 21:23

Wheelie - aye savvy mavvy certainly does 😁 and he has one white whisker on his head, the rest are black 😂
I had no idea Lilah had a white patch on her too, they are so friggin alike it’s hella cool!
Haha aye many a time I’ve dropped my phone on my face too, what are we like 😂

Mrs - the thought of sprout flavoured crisps makes me want to hurl 🤢

My hair goes down past my bum and is naturally curly, I don’t have the energy to straighten it at the moment. My grandad just saw it and he went to pay me a compliment by saying I look like my mum, but before he could say why I came out with ‘what like I’ve been dead for over 20 years?!’ 😂
He was just like should have seen that coming 😂

WheelchairWoes · 09/12/2018 21:33

acey awwwww I love that little pink dress number 1!!

Lilah has random little white hairs all throughout her fur. Does Mav have those? It's so strange. I told her she looks like she's going gray lol

I'm dying of laughter at your reply to your grandad! So does he live with you? I don't think I ever asked who all lives with you. I know Paddy is moving in and you and Addie but who else?

We've got about an hour until we light our last Chanukah candles of 2018. Then my Chanukah stuff gets put up and just Christmas stuff then lol

AceyMac13 · 09/12/2018 21:40

Wheelie - thank you 😁 I love that one too it’s so pretty! Addie’s going to look so adorable Grin
Haha aye mav has those too, it does look like he’s going gray! They are just random ones scattered through his fur!
I asked him to please move earlier as he was sat where I wrap presents, I’ve uploaded a pic of his unimpressed face! He didn’t move 😂
My grandad is staying with me at the moment, he moved to the uk a couple years ago (I’m in Ireland) however, he’s selling up and moving back to Ireland in the new year. He said he will start looking at houses after Christmas Grin
At the moment I live on my own, well kind of, paddy has spent every night here for the past few weeks, and of course can’t forget Addie who will be joining us in March 😁 Paddy will be all moved in in January which I’m very excited for, I love having him around Grin

Mrsmadevans · 09/12/2018 22:29

Acey & Wheelie they taste nice at least l like them Xmas Grin
Love the new clothes for Addie , the two cats look very alike they are both absolutely gorgeous! I try to ignore my Dsis but she does get my goat! Hmm l need to stop letting her get to me !
Your hair sounds lovely too , my Dd1 has long curly hair she usually straightens it too Xmas Grin
The Chanukah candles have been lovely Wheelie , in fact my DH has been wanting a Menorah since he saw a pic of yours Smile will have to get him one now lol Grin
Better get to bed , night everyone Smile

WheelchairWoes · 09/12/2018 23:09

Acey Mav is hilarious and yup. Lilah's little white hairs are so random!

That's awesome that your grand is living with you. He sounds like a sweetheart!

Mrs Siblings are good at getting our goats. I think it's part of being a sibling lol

You definitely should get your DH a menorah!!

Happy 8th night!! Also Lilah in a shark! LOL

I've got to go take 9 month photos for my little boy curly eared cat! He's 9 months old today! He's so old lol

DS and I went to the panto today. He loved it, sat nicely all the way through. Was still shouting 'it's behind you' at bedtime though.

He's being quite 'spirited' at the moment, which is very unlike him. DM thinks it's Christmas excitement.

I don't know if I can cope with it for another two weeks - especially as I am out drinking the next two Fridays! I don't get a hangover in the sense that I don't feel sick or have headache, but I get grumpy from not sleeping very well and would struggle with 'spirited' behaviour...

FireflyGirl · 09/12/2018 23:44

In the spirit of sharing, here's RCat helping me put up the decorations yesterday...
