After a week of other people's children, I have a weekend of......... er............... other people's children.
Yes, the ultimate grinch is back on the Santa circuit again this year.................. thousands (it seems) of the little chaps all fibbing that they've been good all year, and demanding gifts of electronic hardware that their parents can't afford, and that I could neither operate nor so much as identify. (What is a DS? And what is it's appeal to a child who can't even spell DS? First time I heard it, I thought the little chap wanted a baby sister. )
Just a tip to all the other males: never, ever, play Santa. And if you do, then don't ever let anyone know that you do it. Everybody wants you for their group/party/church/pub/etc. and they all take offence if you refuse: as in "look, I'm not the real Santa, so when I say I'm already booked, don't believe I can be omnipresent like the guy who's down every bl00dy chimney in the world on the stroke of midnight. Comprendez?"
Oh, and Fussy, check your Manchester arrival time. I've been warned there's some problem at ATC which might mess up your brother's flight (as well as my sleigh-flying schedule. )

I thought ( I really must stop thinking! ) that I had a quiet weekend ...
today I have to return some books to the library and do some food shopping. Christmas tree needs decorating and house needs tidying ( not that I will do that on my own! )Dd also needs to practise for dance exams. tonight Dh & I have his company Christmas do.
tomorrow, both children have band practice, Ds has football match, Dd & I have church, Dd has dance exams and then breathe ... !!!
I do need to wrap mindees Christmas presents as next week is the last week for a couple till the new year! I also want to go through everything I bought for Christmas to see that I have everything I think I have !!!
have a good weekend everyone xx

When someone tells you nothing is impossible, tell them to go slam a revolving door

Get well soon Wibble
Bunyip I think I've been asked by every play group I go to, to be Santa. I'm going to start charging appearance fees at this rate!
Fussy, hope your hectic weekend goes well.
I've just fought my way through Bath town centre with a stroppy 3 year old. Friends coming over later for 'Christmas' dinner so just travelling back home on the bus to find my chef's hat!

I have this very strange image of Bunyip the Grinch playing Santa
It's study for me today! Hence why I am on here trying on my best avoidance tactics

Went shopping in Bromley with my daughter this afternoon. Not a very productive trip but it was nice to see the lights and stalls and get the festive feeling going. Came back and did the rest of the shopping on line. Writing my cards this evening then tomorrow I really must tidy up. I have so many craft bits i piles on every surface in my kitchen, that the mindees are in the middle of completing but it's beginning to annoy me know.

We have had norovirus or something similarly nasty sweep through the house is weekend. On Friday morning dh had it, followed by ds and dd2 on Friday evening, me in the early hours of Saturday morning and dd3 on Saturday afternoon. This is a week after my little mindee vomited all over me and was sent home. Clearly I didn't bleach everything well enough, or perhaps we caught it elsewhere.
We have spent much of the day in bed and I'm still exhausted, so tomorrow I have to cram my entire weekend into a single day. Collecting preordered Christmas presents from town, food shopping, taking a hat back to tesco, starting my Christmas shopping for our children (!) cleaning the house ready for Monday and finishing painting the hall.
Apologies for the random full stops. Phone buttons too small, thumbs too big.
