Because I’m intelligent, I decided that the best time of year to wash my car is 23rd December…*shivers*
But at least it’s clean and shiny!

We’re Doing What?!
Friday, December 23rd, 2011Stuck
Friday, December 23rd, 2011Since we couldn’t get our Christmas chicken earlier on in the week, the boy and I are on a mission today; to find the perfect Christmas chicken!
Now we are stuck in traffic after supermarket number one was a bust (there was one chicken that was the right size, but it looked like it’d been fairly sick in it’s life)…and we’re not happy. Especially as we’re being forced to spend time together *shudder*
Christmas Spirit
Sunday, December 18th, 2011After seeing the ice and snow yesterday, it made me feel all kinds of in the Christmas spirit. So today I’m lighting my gingerbread candle, mulling some cider [drinking it from my Wonder Woman mug] and watching ‘Who Framed Roger Rabbit’ (it’s always on every Christmas).
Inability to Sleep
Sunday, December 18th, 2011Unable to sleep. Found a pad. A decent pen. Wrote a poem, about my glass of wine…
Icy Roads and Chillaxing
Saturday, December 17th, 2011Great final of Strictly…Harry won…*dances*
Back at home now after driving on very icy roads and almost smooshing some rebellious puppies in the road. Glass of wine and some crisps to help me chillax…oh and old school Buffy episodes!
Strictly Waiting…
Saturday, December 17th, 2011Despite not being able to drink, I’m designated driver, I’m starting to feel giddy from the conversation. Waiting for Strictly to start again…and see who is leaving…
Strictly Final!
Saturday, December 17th, 2011Mum is wearing her glitterball earrings in preparation for the final…
Queen of Avoidance
Friday, December 16th, 2011I’m trying to figure out what to eat for my, admittedly quite late, evening meal. The boy has gone to bed, and I don’t seem to have anything in that equals a meal for one (or that would be particularly appetising – crabmeat and gravy anyone?)
So I thought of getting food delivered, maybe going to one of the various takeaway places in my surrounding area…but none of their food is striking my fancy. I did consider getting my ass into the car and heading over to ASDA for some fried chicken and mashed potato – but I doubt the boy would be too happy to find out that I’d gone out driving in the middle of the night for food.
So I was puzzling over what to have, and still am, when I decided that it was too difficult and that I should really be spending my time looking for a job. At least this’ll mean my unemployed ass will be able to purchase more fresh fruit and vegetables…
So I looked at jobs for a bit, found a couple to apply for and then surprise surprise, I got bored of that and went onto Facebook to avoid my job search. It was only when I logged into Facebook and checked my news feed that I remembered what I had originally been doing, (searching for meal ideas) as I saw my previously posted status update, in which I complained about my lack of food.
So I came on here, to complain about my avoidance skills, and to avoid making a decision about food. But I’m back to my thoughts of food and hunger…seems avoidance doesn’t last as long with a grumbling stomach…
Off to find some food, that is if I don’t get distracted yet again…ooooh my Christmas tree lights are making fun patterns on the wall…
Lancaster Baby
Wednesday, December 14th, 2011After job centre stuffs, we’re heading up to Lancaster to help unpack baby stuff and sort out printers…road trip baby!
Home
Tuesday, December 13th, 2011Got home safely, sang Sally the Camel and missed an overturned lorry (just).
Relaxing at home with my gingerbread candle, sparkling wine and some Ferrero Rocher…oh and a Waffle!
