Been a couple of days since I’ve blogged, and sure enough, I’ve pretty much forgotten what I’ve been up to. There was work – mad dash to the shops on the way in on Thursday to pick up leaving present for one of the team (and I wish I’d had a camera ready for a snap of his face when he saw the singing Elvis teddy bear we got him too), and work’s night out, last night. Another party, another exploration of lesser known realms of west yorkshire (Almondbury in this case, a place I know, but I couldn’t find the church hall). And we took the kids to sister no 1 for Christmas no 1, which was good, but has raised excitement levels to fever pitch among the offspring.
Worthwhile notes, I’ve actually beaten Tim at scrabulous, and not only once, and I went shopping today, braced for it to be horrendous and actually it was pretty much deserted. Almost depressingly so – one shop had a member of staff who appeared to be trying to go to sleep on the counter (he had a hangover he said, I had no sympathy) and others had “clearance, everything half price”. Not very festive, all told.
Other than that, I’m wondering where I’ve put the dvd I got Small. Gotta love that safe place 😕 Should make for an interesting christmas eve hunting for it. But at least I’m done shopping. One way or the other. Except for food, we’ll be making a trip out, one or the other of us, for food tomorrow. Think it’ll be chicken and assorted veg, probably with roast potatoes. A family meal, if we can find the table. Should be nice.
