    Nope,lots to do,so little time to do it in,but I usually make it, it,s normal for me.

    I usually get all of the Christmas shopping done.. and then realize... Oh crap what about Christmas dinner.. .LOL

    Never done that yet although it would make my life easier,I,m the cook normally.

    I just bought my last gift. I still need to wrap and buy Christmas Dinner. I'm splurging this year and making Prime Rib. MMMM, my mouth is watering just thinking about it.

    Jenn

    How do you cook it?

    I'm still in the trial and error stage. I want to cook it on the grill but I'm not good at making the temperature stay steady.

    Yes..except when Dec. 24th comes and then I'll think of one more thing.    :)

    No, still last minute things to get. Still baking and making my special cookies.

    ready as I ever will be!

    Nowhere near it!!!Think our Christmas is going to be a bit of a damp squib,hes on a 12 hour day shift  so will come in shattered understandably and my son isnt coming up till Boxing day! But,and on the quiet,id be more than happy if it was just me,the dog and a roast chicken(free range of course!!)again.Suit me fine that would,but then Im a miserable *** :)

    Almost ready. Just stated wrapping. I'm a horrible gift wrapper!

    So am I, but I love to wrap.

    "Ready" "Teddy" go Jenn go I love Christmas Now I"ve told you so.

    Ok. Dragged the Plastic Christmas Tree out of the Christmas tree closet complete with all its trimmings and plugged it in. Ordered Christmas dinner from the deli. Tucked $50.00 dollar bills into five envelopes with Christmas Cards and post Christmas sales flyers from last year with a Note” Remember what happened after last years Christmas” That’s when we go shopping for what we would like to have. It is surprisingly less stressful to establish a thoughtless routine to fill the time.
