    Damn it only have season one, which was class. I'm home alone now so I can watch Christmas movies, like Home Alone, anytime I want!! The joys of being an adult.

    40 weeks today to the big day. Hard to believe we're only 12 weeks on from last year, seems like longer despite the year moving along nicely.

    Have the house to myself this Friday night (after the kids go to bed) so finally get a chance to indulge in some tv viewing of my own choice... No idea what to watch though, last time I planned a free night was in the build up to crimbo and I had a load of crimbo stuff lined up, but it ended up being cancelled at the last minute by herself, doesn't feel right doing crimbo stuff in March, or does it? ðŸ˜

    Am back after week-end away, was good to be home and still some left over Christmas goodies to be had , big stock this year !

    and then back to broken interweb for a few days :(
    Which gave me chance to finish reading a book and making serious dents on a second.

    Hope everyone had a good Patrick's Day !

    You know the way at Christmas people put reindeer ears on their cars? Just seen someone with bunny ears and a nose on theirs!

    I was think about these before but then I thought I might look like a Playboy Bunny!

    I've been away from here for a while.....but was in Scotland for 10 days too. In the Aldi near my brothers house picking up groceries, but as with any normal aldi visit, I also came out with a frying pan, plates........and 2 packs of Christmas fluffy socks from the clearance basket - 49p each!!! It would have been rude to leave them languishing there any longer - they needed a good home :D:D

    Just had a social committee meeting in work today and we finalised the booking of this year's staff Christmas Party!
    Everyone is really excited about this one because it's a biggy :)

    I actually ended up watching it last night. Never gets old.

    Resisted the temptation to watch christmas stuff on Friday when I had the house to myself (after the kids went to bed) but probably would have been better off doing so, watched a couple of films I'd wanted to rewatch for a while & was ultimately disappointed I did.

    Did notice a christmas film on true movies last night at 9pm, but as I'm not a fan of the 'hallmark' or suchlike christmas films gave it a swerve.

    I only thought of Rudolph Day after I'd already sorted my work clothes for today (skirt & tights), so couldn't sneak in the Christmas socks :(

    Will try and fit something Christmassy in this evening instead :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,065 ✭✭✭otnomart


    Day from hell in work, so totally forgot about Rudolf Day - until now ...
    Will have a square of dark chocolate right now !

    The Mrs had trouble with her car yesterday morning, came home to find it was a flat battery, jump started it & drove it around by myself for a half hour to recharge, being rudolph day & having forgotten to wear my crimbo socks or suchlike I stuck in my ipod & played my christmas playlist for the drive... ended up really enjoying the spin singing along to stuff I normally wouldnt dream of listening to until december 1st...

    My little lad didn't let me down.........he was on youtube watching Paw Patrol and next minute I hear Jingle Bells! I had a great sing along :)
