THIS! Christine

Xmas is almost over.

Most of my guests have departed. I have half a jigsaw to complete, the leftovers are dwindling (gasp, I may have to cook again soon) and Mumsy has a very nasty cold, the poor dear. Apart from the drop ins during the evening, it's just Mumsy and me in the house now. The spawn is generally off skidooing, and Dearest Husband of mine (who simply cannot be still) is about 'fixing' this and that.

Xmas was (still is) simply wonderful. The socialising that that occurs at this time of year has a very different 'feel' to it. Truly there is a goodwill toward men smell in the air. Our house has been barraged, almost nightly, with visitors popping in for some xmas cheer or just to get their asses kicked in a full-insult card game.

I appreciated (finally) the barn Dearest Husband built, because it allowed us to spread out into seperate areas of entertainment without tripping all over each other, yet still close enough that we could shout out to each other. Nice.

I hope everyone had a delightful Xmas, and that the time you spent with your nearest and dearest was as pleasant as mine.

Next up... Exercise January. Where I try to scale back this enormous ass I grew.
