Who is ready for the holidays??
One person who is definately ready is me!! I absolutely can not wait. I can't ever remeber being this excited to be away from work, computers and all the biscuits that have accumulated in the coffee lounge crying out to be eaten!!! If I succumb to the temptations that try to lure us in to the Christmas feel, I will end up looking like a stuffed turkey so it is a case of self control to maintain self preservation!
What am I expecting this year, well not a lot really and to be honest when you get older, the idea of other people buying you something that isn't quite up to your taste and having to paste on a articicial smile thus adding to the ever growing crows feet, well it does not excite me. What excites me is the the idea of being at home with the family and enjoying quality time, waking up and being able to see them past 8am without having to dash out the door, being able to move around outt doors in actual daylight!! I know it all sounds quite pathetic, but what can I say, I am getting older, and appreciating the finer things in life.
Luckily I managed to finish all my shopping prior to the snow fall. I can guarantee there will be no disappointed faces. I am a giver not a receiver. I have far too many comoditites as it is and frankly I have little storage left in the mansion.
Oh I know what I would love for Christmas, a diamond ring and a vile of botox. Now that would just complete the day. It's never going to happen, or is it???
So we are fast approaching another year where people make their Bridget Jones resolutions....I will lose weight, I will try harder....yarder yarder.
I can't say I have thought of any as yet, but I do have 9 more days to come up with some little pearls and see if I can stick to them.
One is, I shall be more attentive with my updates and I shall definately definately give up chocolate :)and avoid the Sunday blues. There, i didn't need 9 days, I have done it already. I made my resolutions earlier in the year. They are still going strong.
Happy Holidays Everyone.
Bon Anee.
