I am going to say it...

[Bobbisox]

before sqads comes in and says Bah Humbug!!!!!
Anyone else "stepping" into Christmas like me? wrote half my cards out, wrapped some gifts for Ben yesterday, going to look for a few more for my daughter , son-in-law and friends today, Bill and I have given eachother the holiday in Portugal, although the family paid for it, Bless them, we need spendies!
so we decided instead of blowing money on gifts , we will say, Right! thats our Christmas present, but still going to get him something to open on the 25th,,,he-he
I told him last night, I will go straight away and get my fruit and candles when we get to Albufeira, so's I can put them in the apartment, well! it is my first time away at Christmas, I'm a home mummy...LOL
already downloaded the Christmas songs and Carols onto my ipod touch, so hopefully I will have the familiar sights and sounds of Christmas in the Algarve.

If you start this early, don't you find by the time you get to Christmas Day, you are fed up with it? All that artifically created anticipation there'll be nothing left by the time you get there.

It really gets on my Tapas (that what t!ts gets changed to) how Christmas gets earlier every year. It'll be a period from June to May the following year at this rate. Although I did read of one guy who is so hooked on Christmas, he eats Christmas Lunch with all the trimmings, every day of the year.

Androcles, I've already got your present ;o)

[ChuckFickens]

Wow, the guy who has the full Christmas lunch everyday must be really really fat!

[ummmm]

And he sends himself a card...everyday.

Hi yes Bobbi I get all my main presents done early as I find if you leave it too late they are out of stock. Yes cards are all done .But would not like to be away for xmas but I am sure you will have a good time.Then I just pick up bits and pieces as I cant be doing with the mad rush around .

[Androcles]

Androcles, I've already got your present ;o)

Now you've got me really excited....... A girl with an Alpha too!

Oh Joy, Oh Bliss, Oh Extreme Ecstasy........or is it not that kind of present?

[bigmamma]

Lol @ mdo !
I'm hoping to make some sort of a start to mine once I get home bobbi xxx

[ummmm]

I haven't sent a card since I left school.

[sara3]

I don't want to spoil the surprise, but you'll be happy when it comes to unwrapping time............. !

[Androcles]

Nothing like a nice bit of origami to heighten the excitement!

[Bobbisox]

they can't burst my bubble sara..LOL
I have had to do this early with going away, but I am enjoying every minute of it, the cards I have written, are what I call my special cards, the others will follow.
Bobbi x

[sara3]

[Bobbisox]

LOL

Dear Bibbisox I've just been shopping on Amazon and nearly finished all my shopping . Just got to make my special peoples' Christmas cards and I am done. Except for buying a replacement tin of Roses ( I feel a bit 'ick now if I am honest.)

[Naomicorlett]

DOH !! I typed Bibbisox and meant to type Her Royal Highness, Queen Bobbisox of the North.

I'm writing my cards today and have started to look online for ideas of what to buy hubby. What do you buy the man who has everything?

[Naomicorlett]

I am getting him a swiss railway watch as I like the design. last year was a weather station ( a bit like an up to date barometer) I get horribly stuck every year.
