Great to hear you are more or less stress free this Christmas, I did it.
Gambling is the last thing anybody needs at Christmas, yet it features hugely in many “normal” lives i.e. big racing events on St Stephen’s Day. Never an attraction or me, but I know lots who look forward to those events. They are not CGs.
Curling up in a casino to unwind would be my poison (typical post Christmas/CG behaviour) but now that we know the antidote, we have no excuse to partake of the poison.
You paint a lovely picture of a glamorous woman swanning round the house, beaming at everyone or sipping coffee in the shopping mall as you decide on your last minute presents. (Do you have a maid and a chauffeur? lol!)
My Christmas scene is slightly different. Up to my elbows in the kitchen will be the Main Act for the next few days.
Most of the presents are wrapped. “Under the tree” items will be distributed to immediate family who are here on Christmas Day (I won’t be chasing the absent member).Turkey and ham waiting to be “prepped”. Cake iced. Puddings in bowls (All ready to re boil ‘n serve on 25th)
Hubby outside hammering felt on the roof of the shed before it blows off completely. (It was a stormy night)
I have a “to do” list for today and tomorrow.
No hair do or manicure included.
Oh! to be young and glitzy!
Beats being broke and shabby.
I have a wardrobe of clothes that don’t fit me.
Roll on 2017 for the compulsive dieting!
