A day off! Hurrah!

A DAY OFF!!! At last. Not that it's really a day "off" what with all the shopping and cleaning and cooking to do. Anyways, dropped kids off, braved the ice death trap that is the road outside nursery, pootled along to the collection office to pick up a "mystery thing" for Felix that turned out to be an enormous card that Grama had sent. Only postage was underpaid by 8p so I had to pay the balance AND a £1 handling charge. Grumble grumble. Grama, incidentally, is arriving today, so lordy knows why she couldn't have just brought it with her. It's not like we've got anything better to do.

Anywayz, got to the supermarket at 8.05am and the car park was jampacked already. Who'da thought? Christmas, in the main, was delivered last night (love Ocado) so I whizzed round doing top up shop and picked up our joint for tomorrow (love Waitrose) just in time to see a lady do a strop because her two turkeys she ordered hadn't been delivered. And whilst she wasn't shouting she was clearly very cross - and who could blame her - and I couldn't help but feel relieved that it hadn't happened to me.

Feeling all Christmas ho ho ho now. Hurrah!
