Been fossicking around under tables etc trying to assemble the Nativity Crib after "someone" had ...rearranged....things. Mary is fine and the three kings also, but Josph is missing and poor Baby Jesus in the crib has been broken in half,

The stable is lovely so am trying to get a set on ebay etc

Advent Wreath is a glory. Love this day even though my toes are still cold. Soon time for the Carols on radio and here...

In bed with coffee. We are getting the en suite done up so are off to the in laws later to look at their new bathroom. Hopefully this means tea and biscuits. Am very excited.
Its the little things

Dinner cooking. Christmas lights on. Watching the rugby. Hurling next. Gonna crack open a beer. This is a complete Sunday.

Hurling. Wont be watching cos I'm cooking in the kitchen but a distant relative is playing. Every now and then I'll be shouted : "Sardi, your cousin scored a point!" Here's hoping he does even better.

G'wan Limerick!

I considered going on nights last year, I'd say I wouldn't last a week, I love my sleep and I know I wouldn't get into the routine at all, it was the money that was enticing me but I had to be sensible about it.
So mild here today, great walk with coffee and a biscuit cake afterwards, it's no mystery that the weight isn't falling off me.
6.30am starts this week, I'm allergic already but I'll be delighted finishing early, can't have my cake and eat it lol.
BTW I find the weather forecast on here excellent, check it every day, there's a slight chance of snow next week if the 'elements ' align, I've a sneaky feeling it might happen, something to watch.
Couchside, Christmas lights on, some candles lit, heating on, watching the hurling and about to open a bottle of beer, cheers lads.

The idea of being up at unholy o clock, oh no, the last times o tried I was fighting myself until midday at least.

Delighted for Limerick. Two great SH games this weekend and the Camogie wasn't bad either. As for the Rugby....more scutterfest over hyped baloney.:D

Enjoying some ice cold beers. This weekend, after comparing this time last year with this time this year, me and Mrs G have reached a conclusion. Yeah it was different, but overall we are cool enough. We both agree that the few pints in the pub aren't really that important. Eating out is no big deal either as I love cooking anyway. Takeaways were always available despite circumstances. Our Sesame Street words for the coming week are "We Adapted and we are happy".:D

Gremlinertia

Trundle trundle, seems to be a few walking around this evening.

Wine wine and more wine! Love ye my boardsies. (It's white wine by the way!)

Laptopside after finishing off dinner.

Was out and about with the camera today to have a bit of fun. Christmas lights + long exposure times make for some "interesting" results :pac:

When someone posts about their latest purchase on another thread I usually have to buy the same thing, did it about an hour ago, bought the top but had to buy a cardi also. It's not even funny anymore.

Stop lol. What I really need is a few new pairs of skinny jeans but I wouldn't chance them online tbh,very difficult to judge them size wise. Will try Zara during the week.
Couchside, dinner was stuff that could be just put in the oven, the Glenroes are knocking but I'm trying to ignore them, thinking about taking a day off during the week ,I'm ready for my Christmas holidays now.

Bracken was between it and Glenroe. Take the 2 days, swish your hair and say you deserve it.

CCL get the trees and lights, you'll have them for years and they really brighten up the place.
