Ready For The Onslaught

[ethandron]

Beds are made, house is sparkling, meals all planned, shopping list compiled down to the last olive ready for the final foray to sainsburys, family arriving on Friday, entertainment sorted. Phew.
Lovely to have them all here...and lovely to wave them all off on 28th.

Same here, I've got so many lists. My last day for shopping is Friday. I refuse to go wholly mad as I am only expecting my BIL and wife for 3 days.

[Tilly2]

Only the bread and milk to buy. The rest is done.

I have procrastinated and done... NUTHINK :( Now I'm panicking.

Got a huge dinner to organise for after Christmas and I'm invited for Christmas day and Boxing day, haven't bought any gifts or what not here but ugggghhhh I'm so behind and tired and juggling speaking with other half I don't wanna do it :(

Need to kick myself up the behind.x

[ummmm]

This is the first year in 10 years that'll I'll be home for Xmas. Shopping is coming tomorrow.

The daughter will be in Ireland, Older son is at his girlfriends, Youngest is debating coming to ours with his new boyfriend, he's worried that OH will embarrass him :-) (he probably will)

[Rockrose]

Ahhh the joys of being unable to do anything easy cooking and no visitors

[Cloverjo]

Yes, roll on the 26th. It's lovely to see them all, but it's just as lovely when they go.
If they stayed all any longer than that I'd go quietly mad.

I had done no present-shopping before this week, then realised time was marching on. Thank goodness for Amazon and Next online, and their quick delivery.

[choux]
