About to start a marathon of wrapping, food shopping, cooking, wrapping, church, visiting, then staying up half the night on Christmas Eve finding all the hidden presents and getting them under the tree (some still needing wrapping)... :crazy: BUT before I do, just wanted to say to my friends across the country AND across the world (how cool :cool: is that)--

MERRY CHRISTMAS AND A HAPPY NEW YEAR 2009!!!

Merry Christmas and joy to everyone! Let me reiterate how grateful I am for this community and the special people here.

I leave you with my favorite Christmas carol that always lifts my spirits when I'm feeling down (and I know this has been a hard year for many).

I heard the bells on Christmas day
Their old familiar carols play
And mild and sweet the words repeat
Of peace on earth, good will to men.

I thought how as the day had come
The belfries of all Christendom
Had rolled along the unbroken song
Of peace on earth, good will to men.

And in despair I bowed my head:
"There is no peace on earth," I said,
"For hate is strong, and mocks the song
Of peace on earth, good will to men."

Then pealed the bells more loud and deep:
"God is not dead, nor doth He sleep;
The wrong shall fail, the right prevail,
With peace on earth, good will to men."

'Til ringing, singing on its way,
The world revolved from night to day,
A voice, a chime, a chant sublime,
Of peace on earth, good will to men!

Merry Christmas!

Hubby is working a three hour shift this morning. The turkey is in the oven, the veg prepared, the fire lit and pressies around the tree.

ticky, your daughter is adorable in that picture you posted. How cute!

And gef, your fireside scene is beautiful!

I wished everyone a Merry Christmas in another thread a few days ago, but since we now have this thread, here it is again! Hope everyone had a great time with family and friends.

A belated HAPPY HOLIDAYS from me too. I have eaten waaaay too much and am vowing to whip myself into shape - but not until the new year (which gives me a few more days of pigging out :rofl:).

We had our usual Christmas with my daughter being given lots of Nintendo DS games and Roald Dahl DVDs. I got some books and T shirts and as usual gave my husband DVDs and a lovely set of brandy balloons. Yesterday (Boxing Day) we went to my mother's. We got her a new mini hi fi with an iPod dock so she was forced to listen to my Top 100 songs playlist. I hope all Borderers enjoyed Christmas.

Merry 3rd day of Christmas! (got to make something of it, lol)

We stayed at home and listened to Christmas songs and just had some nice diner that evening. And at Boxing Day we went out for diner with my grandmother to a Chinese restaurant. I didn't had a really great Christmas, because I was the days before Christmas really sick and didn't had engery enough to be really up at Christmas.

Oh and a tip,.. never go to a Chinese restaurant if you have problems with your stomach :(

Brooke

Awww, I'm sorry you were sick over Christmas, Mrs H.

I wasn't too well myself. Just a bit of a bug that made me not want to eat much. I LOVE the turkey, stuffing, noodles, and all the trimmings, but couldn't really over do it like normal. I guess in the end it was a good thing. Now I won't have to diet to get back to normal!

Aww, Danielle and Brooke, I hope you are bothe feeling better now.

Ticky, that is a gorgeous picture of Sarah in the snow.

I hope everybody here had a great Christmas and had plenty of time to enjoy the season.

Christmas morning the kids were up about 7:15 which was quite civilised. Theirmain presents which Santa left were DS consoles with 3 games each a Care Bear for Laura and 'Buzz LightYear' for Chris. As well as plenty of candy and other stocking fillers.

As once again Glenn :heart: failed to materialise in my stocking this year I was given a laptop from hubby and a Satnav from the kids. I spent much of the day cooking but the meal turned out well which I was thankful for.

Yesterday we went to my parents and collected even more pressies, most notable a Ticket master voucher for €100 from my parents and the HFO songbook from my sister. As well as a HUGE number of chocolates. Hubby's brother and his family came over last night. Today we just rested and I made soup out of the remaining Turkey and Ham, as we are tired of the same dinner 3 days in a row, but I will NOT waste food!

12-28-2008, 06:36 PM
GA, I got a new laptop too. And that Ticketmaster voucher sounds good! I've been exercising my brain trying to transfer my itunes, but have finally cracked it. We also have a new printer which is wireless - finally an end to transferring everything on a memory stick. I've finally got a dvd rewriter, so shouldn't have to rely on my son any more!

Well done on your laptop and other accessories GEF! I hope you get many years of success out of them, and that they make your cyber life less complicated.

Myself and the kids tried out the Satnav earlier. This girl gave directions in a rather 'cultured' and soothing voice. However she also kept cutting across 'The Best of Glenn :heart: Frey' much to Lauras annoyance. However she made a VERY good suggestion

'Mammy, its a pity we couldn't just get Glenn :heart: to do the directions on this'

I totally agree Laura!!

I hope everyone who was under the weather is feeling better now, and I hope everyone had a blessed holiday.

Personally, I am feeling FAT. I have eaten so much good food at parties and at my mother's house during this holiday season--ham, smoked turkey, dressing, cranberry sauce, pumpkin pie, cheesecake, sugar cookies--that I am about to faint dead away. :fainted:
Too much good food! Now is the time to :stop:eating and start dieting, because my Eagles concert here in Birmingham is less than a month away. I don't know if I will be able to drop these extra pounds that quickly but I am surely going to try, since I have excellent motivation. 8)

By the way, hubby surprised me with a big fat check in my stocking with "For Eagles tickets" printed on it. He said, "I figured you would appreciate that more than any other gift." What a nice guy!

I know--I was VERY surprised. He is a sweetheart most of the time but he usually isn't that understanding about my Eagles obsession. He must have been full of "Christmas cheer"! :cheers:

Maybe he has finally just resigned himself! My husband's outlook is-why fight it-just go with it and know that I'm all his in the end :hilarious:.
