We wish you a LIGHTer Christmas, we wish you a LIGHTer Christmas, we wish you a LIGHTer Christmas....

[TheMousefaceBeforeChristMouse]

........ and a much LIGHTer New Year!

Well, here's hoping.

I'm Mouse, I'm a lot little overweight currently and looking forward to getting my fat on over the next two weeks.

Then in the New Year, it's kick ass time!

So if you want to join us, feel free.

I concur with mouse, dubs.

I'm a bit worried about our bird. No room in the fridge, was going to leave it outside....

foxes would love you for that uno - happy christmas btw - well done for surviving mil

think house is mostly sorted. got a bit more hoovering to do and have to tidy ds's bedroom but other than that i'm just about there.

it is getting very tempting to have a baileys coffee.

Bears bed is assembled. DS rumbled me when I said 'Oh look, where did that come from' and he said 'It's from Ikea Mummy, I saw the box'. So I had to admit it was from me.

My tablets and PJ's are nowhere to be found

I need to nip to the shop for fags, hoover the stairs and mop the kitchen floor then I reckon I'm done. A couple more bits to wrap. I may have an Irish coffee and finish that.

Bugger about the water dubs, you will have to stick to Gin.

When did you last have them Blitz? Your ADs?

Satan - well bloody done for getting it all sorted. I hope you have a fab time xx

handbag, shopping bags, car....???

They live on a shelf in the kitchen, weren't there when I came down this morning. I have taken two of DH's and am hoping he has tidied them somewhere.

The PJ's will probably turn up tonight when I get all the kids presents out of hiding.

right.

house done.

ds gone churching.

time for a quick fag and then i must start cooking and hopefully have time to get ready before they all show up.

being a grown up is quite hard work isn't it? think i did the right thing avoiding it all these years.

Is it? In that case I will stick to not growing up, thanks.

god yeah. i'm going back to feckless teenager next year.

am now installed in kitchen with a pile of different spices and a lot of faith

this is so not me !

that was so exciting!!!

realise how sad it is but that was such a rush - never cooked with spices and mustard seeds and stuff before like that. it's just super fast manic and poof of stink and flavour and bursting seeds everywhere.

love it.

scuse me - know i'm weird

spot the girl who hasn't had sex in over 10months

I love cooking. I actuallly do find it exciting

I love cooking too. I bet that your kitchen smells wonderful Satan.

You are all under control and enjoying it. Go YOU!

Blitz - my ADs live on a shelf in the kitchen too. What have you eaten today??

Bass shandy and nibbles here. Don't want to peak too soon!!

Mouse, 2 pain au chocolate

Pizza and garlic bread for dinner, if DH ever gets home.

it was quite a rush mouse. don't think it tastes up to much but i had fun doing it and i produced something so that'll do.

it's done, will just need heating when i cook the snacky bits in the oven (ready made).

i'm dressed and even have a little make up on.

think maybe i could have a drink now? i did eat earlier - bacon sandwich.

Get yourself something poured woman!!

Blitz - not the same today then, I've had pate on toast, cheese sarnie and snack-a-jacks.

Burgers for dinner.

CBA to cook tonight.

God yes, have a drink.

I want a bacon sandwich now. So suggestible

i've just been really cautious not to drink today and end up pissed and mess things up or fight with someone.

have poured a small gin and tonic, ice and lemon and lime. good girl.

will relax with you guys for a while till the hoards turn up if you'll have me.

Of course we'll have you lovely lady xx

Cheers.

i actually have no appetite and no real desire for alcohol.

very strange.

Maybe you think you should have/need a drink because of the occasion or because you've not had one?

How's your tummy now?

I'm Hank bloody Marvin.

I may have to break out the quality street.
