Better than Expected? The Things People Do
Dec 14

I have now started my Christmas shopping!  Hurrah!  Yes, today was a payday.  I spent money on… things for… people… that may or may not read this so… WAIT UNTIL CHRISTMAS DAY PEOPLE!

Okay, today is a good day - not just because of the shopping but mainly because I have the night to myself!  The parents are at another Christmas do and my brother is at a panto.  I just watched the Ugly Betty/ Betty White episode (and loved it) and am now watching all The West Wing I can… followed by a DVD or two…  I am eating in front of the TV and drinking a Magners, watching stuff I like on TV - God, I love living on my own and must sort out moving as soon as… well… I can afford to!

Oh, that was the cat’s contribution.  I put my Mac on my knee and she is demanding attention… and I am a sucker for it!

    You can spells better than I do.

    Damn, I guess I need to start focusing on Christmas now!

  3. Bec Says:

    Dan - can? I take it that was a deliberate typo?! She writes better than I do to and has more interesting things to say!

    Hilly - Nah! There’s plenty of time! A whole 9 days! There’s no need to really start focusing until at least Dec 23rd - then panic sets in and that really helps with the concentration!

    I will wait patiently by my mailbox for my present.

    Avitable - take a sleeping bag and a flashlight… It’ll get cold at night.

    And Dan - The dolly mixtures thing has been around for a while now. St Michael’s does two sticks of jelly tots (orange and green for me this year - Mum got the blackcurrant one - jammy sod) and two of sultanas. No idea why - they’re either too cheap for full jelly tot-ness or not cheap enough!… Could be encouragin kids to eat fruit I suppose… in a non-pushy way? ‘If you eat the shrivelled fruit you can have a sugar coated jelly sweet!’
