Afternoon all!
Hi JVH hope it wasn't too hot on the golf course for your OH today! Actually no I have a bit of a reputation as a xmas scrooge lol - hate putting up the xmas tree (but I do for the kids) - and no house decorations. I would be over the moon if someone else stepped up and offered to be the host lol, but they never do! I'm fortunate I have 2 ovens so easier for me in the long run.
Hi kezza sounds like you are suffering over there in that heat! Was a lovely warm day here today. Had lunch out while the pooch was being scalped and shampooed! Stay cool!
Dame thinking of you! Xmas is tough enough for some people to wade through. First xmas after a loss is top of the list! Hope you are ok!

Miss and yes the tree plus all the decorations can be a bit daunting.
I can remember about 10 years ago that my son cooked a whole lot of asian dishes for something very different for Christmas dinner everyone had a lovely time and then the younger ones all had a dip in the pool
There always seems to be a lot of to dos for the one that is the host/hostess:)
Dame yes thinking of you and know its been one horrible year for you ........hope the New Year brings some joy and a whole lot of peace into your very special life:)x

Good Morning all :-x
Had a great time at the Christmas party meet another mum with BPD and we had a chat about our mental illnesses had a laugh at the things we thought were going on but in our imagination.
C got a prezzie but it wasnt age appriopriate he thought so do I it was hot wheels cars and a track way too young for him. We got a Christmas hamper and I gave some things to the people up the back as well.
Than we went shopping and C got himself some prezzies I dunno want he wants anymore.
Twas lovely and cool last night could sleep easily nice that the humidity has dropped lets hope it stays that way.
