saf said i was a twat. Just because its true doesn't make it nice Xmas Grin

SantaIsAnAnagramOfSatan · 24/12/2010 12:58

in the nicest possible way Xmas Smile

laundry mountain is dealt with, we have enough clothes clean and ironed to see us through and the rest is hidden away.

bathroom is clean, dining table sort of set and sideboard cleared for piling food on.

i'm at a bit of an impass now as ds is asleep on the sofa so hoovering is out.

guess i should tackle the kitchen.

you can guess my new years resolutions.

TheMousefaceBeforeChristMouse · 24/12/2010 12:59

No sherry here Satan. Smile

Thanks for the comments xxx

Miracle on 34th Street, ITV1 now. A must watch! I'm going to snuggle on the sofa with a pint of diet coke and some nibbles.

Hey Bubs!

Lovely that you are getting excited, a bit or not.

Ha ha ahahahahaaa re the gin. I love Bombay. Lush.

I may have to add a bottle to the tesco order. Xmas Grin

Im trying to tidy. While mning Hmm

Saf - if we haven't heard from you by what time should we send reinforcements??

SantaIsAnAnagramOfSatan · 24/12/2010 13:33

kitchen is clean. wrapping is finished.

i'm knackered.

BlitzenAndCupidsSleighDodger · 24/12/2010 13:35

Kitchen was clean, but DC are eating so it won't be for long. I need to hoover and find my tablets.

SantaIsAnAnagramOfSatan · 24/12/2010 13:37

the trouble with bastard children is they go rootling around upstairs too so you can't rely on the close all the doors bar the bathroom trick.

i'm seriously knackered. ds is going to christmas carol service whether he is well enough or not. gonna need an hour or two to myself to focus on cooking and maybe even get a wash.

far too much god bothering getting into him though - he told me the other day that he wanted jesus to come down and be with him again. apparently when he was younger he would come and spend all day with him but he doesn't come anymore. must not tell my mother/sister or they'll be convinced my loss of faith has removed the holy spirit from the house or some such.

Blitz - where/when did you last have them? Have you moved them out of the DCs way?

Satan - DD asked me if I believed in God this week. I said no. But I have no idea why. I don't believe in 'him' as such..... I think there is a 'higher power/karma' type force at times.

Gah.

I'd love to see your mother's face if you told her that about DS! Xmas Grin

Norty Mouse.

he has a fantastic imagination - religion could really batter the hell out of him if it got into him deeply.

must knock the churching on the head in a year or so.

BlitzenAndCupidsSleighDodger · 24/12/2010 14:52

I'm not here, I'm hoovering and changing the beds.

SantaIsAnAnagramOfSatan · 24/12/2010 15:00

did you get bear's bed together ok blitzen?

YouKnowStuffingisforLunch · 24/12/2010 15:01

Woohoo! It's Christmas! (nearly)

Got stuck in the snow on the way to work this morning, but I'm home and safe now! Woohoo! :o

How is everyone? I'm excited and unprepared.

It is pouring down snow outside and it's lovely and cosey in here :)

Mil managed to leave (hurray) and I'm looking forward to a quiet few days.

TheMousefaceBeforeChristMouse · 24/12/2010 15:12

Hey UNO Xmas Smile

Just done the table ready for tomorrow. All is good here. We are expecting -17 now tonight!

Best not leave the bird in the cabin then! Xmas Grin

Glad you are safe and warm.

Are we having a drink o'clock later?

Bubs - been thinking about your heating issues, I think you may have an air leak in the system. If your rads keep filling with air when the system is on, that could be why.

Re your water supply, buggeration!! Can no-one do anything to help?

How's the tv?
