Good Christmas morning everyone. Fairly quiet here. The GSs have opened stockings - cool teenagers but not when it comes to Christmas stockings. 😁😁😁

Good morning, I went to DS2 on christmas eve, DS1 and family were there as well, I am pleased I went as I really enjoyed it. We made our own mini pizza's in small ovens. DS1 said he would see I got home safe, GD1 was with me in the car and we followed him home, it isn't that I don't know the way, the first lane is very dark and small, no problems on the main roads, in fact, I was bothering over nothing!!! As usual.

I am going to DS1 and family for brunch today, maybe DS2 and partner will be there as well but they weren't sure.

I phoned BIL yesterday, he was so upset, I expected him to be, he was expecting his DS2 to call in so hope he did.

[Nanto2girls]

More of a normal day for us,which we like.

Oma,pleased to hear MIL was angel. You'll be polishing her halo next.

DS1 came for his dinner yesterday.

Good morning. Dull and dreary here. No plans for today. DD and GS are watching football this afternoon, SIL has a cycling event so a busy day for them. They invited me over to tea but to be honest, once it gets dark I don’t want to go anywhere so I will be quite happy with a quiet day in my own. Books and knitting to keep me occupied, and they’re only over the road if I change my mind.

Have a happy Boxing Day everyone 🌞🎄🎅🏻

Good morning Lizzie, Nan2, Oma, Enfys and everyone else on this Boxing Day morning.

I have loved reading through all your Christmas Day reports I'm glad your MIL behaved Oma!
We had a lovely day too. Very different for us, but mostly in a very good way. Just not seeing mum was hard.

Whilst we were at DD2's house we heard that DD1 managed to pour a flask of hot tea all over her hand When we left DD1 and family to go on to DD2's, they met up with friends at the park, taking warm clothes, blankets and hot flasks. It meant a trip to the minor injuries unit at their local hospital (where she was quickly and efficiently seen) She now has painful bandaged hand .

Today we are going to cook a Christmas Dinner here, just us two. We had everything in, just in case plans changed and we had to stay at home yesterday. So roast chicken and Christmas pud for us, with prawn cocktail starter! Apart from cooking and eating that, today is a laid back catching up on TV, reading, jigsaws etc day.


Have a good Boxing Day ladies.

Good morning one and all. It’s dull but dry here.

We had a lovely Christmas Day. The GSs had some fantastic teenager ‘essentials’. A new phone for GS2 and an iPad for GS1, and they were both delighted. 😎

we decided to have a quiet evening watching a film. It took ages because we had to keep pausing it to work out what was happening but we stuck with it!

It was a tiring day for DS1, but he said he’d enjoyed it.

Like most people we ate too much and I can’t face the thought of food this morning.

[Oma]

Gem poor DD hope it heals soon what a awful end to a lovely day for her xxx

Daisy isn't it different kind of Christmas with Teenagers ,

Enfys you may change your mind later

GS1 played piano for us yesterday and Guitar ,we all sang around the piano it was like the war years hahaha ,
we are not a set of singers we wouldn't make a good Choir but we had lots of fun doing it .
