Enjoy your time off Surbie. Mrs Bee how come tomorrow is your official Christmas

[Mrs Bee]

Well, son and daughter in law are visiting her family on Christmas day and her sisters on Boxing day so they are with us tomorrow. Which is fine by me so long as I have them for a day.

However when baby arrives, future Christmas' are mine!

 We are not doing presents this year but I have bought a silly Christmas game for the WII and we are going to spend the day playing silly games.

We were having friends coming on Christmas day but with both of us feeling rather fragile after the cold virus they have re booked for  Saturday so we can relax for a couple of days and get our strength back.
I could pop round to mum's but she has got the hump with me.

That means that Christmas day will be my Boxing day. just Mr Bee and me, peace and quiet and time for us to stop and put our feet up. Like you it has been a mad few months.

Can't decide if this is late night or very early morning. A bit stressed at present - had a lovely day and then the dish washer flooded.    Got it emptied and then later today we will see if it is just blocked or finished.

That is so annoying. Hope you get it sorted. I blocked our waste disposal the other day, stinky smelly water all over. Rang Mr S to give him advanced warning so it wasn't the first thing I greeted him in when he walked in

Oh Snowy - just what you did not need. We are no further on but will keep on trying to fix the dishwasher but might just need a new machine - ours must be at least eight years old or possibly more.

Morning all, last working day before you know what 

Springlands - hope you made some dish washer progress yesterday.

Good luck with getting that fixed!

My dishwasher is hale and hearty and in good voice this morning. And has promised to clean the chooks out while I make him some washing up!

Don't start on the pop too early Snowdrops, you don't want to be found chatting to the presents while wrapping the MIL!
