Evening - just popping in to say Hi.

Whats with the houseful LG? Didn't you say you weren't 'doing' Christmas as in the mass catering????? I do hope they will muck in and possibly provided some of the deserts/cakes/nibbles etc. Don't want to be a kill joy, but don't you have a lot of snow in your area?

We're doing fresh food shop tomorrow, and make the spare bed up. Well, actually make up BM's for him and put cases on pillows and duvet for the put-you-up. The gathering of the offspring is scheduled for Friday. Not too bothered about cleaning; A quick wipe round wil be OK. It's Mon I'm more concerned about with the in-laws and we are out on the Sunday so can't do it then. Groan.

I was not planning a lot of visitors but I have heard through the grapevine they will be popping in. Not doing dinners only buffet type thingy. Not being rotten but I am wishing for even more snow which is forecast for tonight as I stick by the old saying. You can choose your friends but not your relations LOL.

Ooooooo now there is a good idea Maz, they can all enjoy themselves and I can lock myself away in the padded cell for a bit of peace and quiet LOL. Correction 6 of the visitors are more than welcome and invited personally by us. They can join me and OH in the cell and blow the rest LOL !!

You can't lock yourself in the padded cell LG!! I have made it my permanent home!!

My brain has stopped functioning altogether. I am losing things, including my favourite scarf, and things I have in my hand and put down. When I go back for them I can't find them!! I think all this shopping has had a severe effect on my mentality!!

When I used to have hissy fits about the expectations of Xmas, I used to wish we could all go away and let some one else do it. Offspring thought it was a good idea, but as long as I did the cooking - which was why I dreamt of going away, to get out of it, lol

I like my inlaws, both parents and OH's sister. But now her boys are adults, I'm a bit resentful having them and one G/F descend upon us. Mass catering is not my forte. They'll have salad and left overs, and lump it - lol These are the nephews who never acknowledge presents sent. consequently I have a predispostion to resentfulness. They are ok as people, if a bit up themselves.

LOL YG, I am glad I am not alone with losing things. I put things away safe and yes, you've guessed it I never find them again LOL

LaGooner Report 21 Dec 2010 20:55

LOL DET , my properly invited guests are always welcome. It is the other lot who only contact us when they are after something that are not my favourite of visitors.

YG

YG Report 21 Dec 2010 21:00

DET, I agree totally with your sentiments!! You do right!!

LG, I have just been sitting here thinking about changing my Christmas screensaver and stopped to watch tv for a couple of minutes. Could I remember what I wanted to do on the lappy!! Not on your nelly!! Until the current screensaver came back on and reminded me!!

THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NO HOPE!!

OH YG what are you like ??? LOL. I have just forwarded your email on to the little ladies, thank you for this it was lovely.
I am trying to summon up the enthusiasm to get on with my crossstitch birth sampler but I don't know if I can concentrate on it. I don't want to make another mistake like yesterdays and have to pull out a whole chunk of it. Might finally get it done when the smallest one is a college LOL

Our 2 females are still waiting for wired in bedside lights.....and the eldest never came back to live after Uni. lol

It's probably the stress that's set us all off on the Senior moments - lol Have a little tipple of your choice and forget the world for this evening. :0

Just been distracted trying to find my gdaughter on Fb. Sent a text to her dad for the latest mobile number so I could ask her to invite me as a friend and apparently she has been banned from using Fb!! He says it's a long story and will tell me when he sees me, so I am really curious now!!!
