Last night I spent ages wrapping all my Christmas presents. I am so proud of myself because there is a whole week to go and I am totally organised. This has never happened before and it’s feels kind of weird.
My dining room has completely been taken over by presents and cards and a big stupid tree and sure, it’s a novelty now but pretty soon it’s going to start doing my head in. Big time!

I didn’t even get to watch lost because I was so engrossed in wrapping stuff up, I did however have one eye on some stupid documentary entitled Does God Exist. Duh! Yes!

It all started off so well, I had presents all laid out in piles to be wrapped, you couldn’t even see the floor and Hubby was all “Can I help, I will do some” and I was all “Clear off, You’re in my way” and a couple of hours later when I had sellotape in my hair and paper cuts on my fingers I was screaming at him “ARE YOU NOT GOING TO HELP THEN”!!!

But it’s done and I am all organised and feeling very smug except that I have run out of Christmas cards and I forgot that I had to buy a present for Mini Man’s teacher and the lovely girlies at his after school club so I am not quite as organised and smug as I thought I was.

We had a brilliant girlie night on Friday. By the time we came home we all looked a bit like Christmas trees. Sarah and Lisa were covered in tinsel and I had a Santa hat on that I nicked from some guy in the pub that I thought we knew and had been speaking to earlier whilst trying to swipe his hat but turns out it was a total stranger and a totally different hat but bless him, he let me have it anyway. I think he was a wee bit scared of us.
My phone wasn’t charged either so I had it switched off and therefore didn’t text everyone I know telling them how much I loved them and….drum roll please…..no drunken message on the internet……ta da……. so pretty much a successful night in all.

And I didn’t go near one shop all weekend apart from when I had to run out for more Christmas cards (and I still have managed to run out) and I bought the coolest pair of slippers in the world, they are all sheepskin and fur trimmed and they look like Ugg boots and I want to wear them all the time because they are just ace and they look like Ugg boots!!
