Friday Fill-In’s (16/12/2011)

1. Sleigh bells ring in almost every Christmas song their is and while I might not like the song, I do like the sound of the bells.

2. It's coming on Christmas, they're cutting down trees so people can cover them in sparkly rubbish, string lights around them, plonk a star on top, wait a month (or longer if your lazy like me), pull all the sparkly crap, the lights and the star off, put it all untangled into a bag in order to untangle them next year and then take that once beautiful tree and ditch it.

3. You're a mean one. I’m not sure there is anything of importance that I can add to that statement.

4. Father Christmas is probably the greatest marketing campaign ever created.

5. A Silent night is almost impossible without the threat of Father Christmas not turning up (for the young one’s) and the presents being given away/thrown out for the older one’s.

6. All I want for Christmas is the kids to be happy and for the day to end without any major drama!

7. And as for the weekend, tonight I'm looking forward to doing exactly what I’m doing right now – sitting in my bed, with my computer, perusing various websites and actually getting to write a post for a change, tomorrow my plans include doing the housework first thing in the morning, then waiting for My Family (not my ‘real’ family but the one I’ve been chosen to help [it’s a long story which I can’t explain here because it would take you all of about two minutes to figure out who I was]) to call or text so that, if it’s not raining, we can take her little one to one of the parks near me and hopefully just have a chat and Sunday, I want to not go on the fruit picking thing we’ve been invited on because it looks like it’s going to be cold and raining and I don’t fancy traipsing through a field picking fruit, getting covered in the juice of said fruit and possibly dragging myself through mud soaked fields! I would much, much prefer to be at home on the computer playing The Sims 3 (which I’m just a little bit obsessed with lately), reading, sleeping and/or just generally being a complete dag in my own house wearing my pyjamas!
