Christmas Loungeroom

I am going to go around to my sister's earlyish and help her get things ready @Shaz51 so it will be a longish day for me ...but I will have Toby to keep me company as well - like I would leave him home lol

It is good that you will see your mum and MIL on the same day though and morning tea and lunch is achievable my sister

Hello @Sophia1, @Sophie1,

yes I agree my sister @Zoe7, and a afternoon off for mr shaz xoxoxo

Hopefully an afternoon off for you too @Shaz51 You can both relax for the afternoon

I have to get something organised for my mum's birthday the day after as well - no idea what I am going to get her - she doesn't need anything and she knows I don't have much money to spend but I need to get her something. Any suggestions here would be welcomed

Sounds like it will be a nice day for you sis @Shaz51 and not too much fir hubby.

sounds like your mum would just love your company @Zoe7,hopei am right in saying that xoxo

what does you mum like xx,

my mum loves music , so I have brought her some abba music xx

Hello @BlueBay and @oceangirl

Hey @Zoe7

Does your mum like

hand cream, soaps, candle, clothes

book, nice salad bowl

its hard isn’t it so close to Christmas.

My daughters birthday is the 2nd of jan. that’s hard too.

trying to make it a easy day my sister @BlueBay, I have lots of other invitations but thinking a lot more of mr shaz and me xxxxx

I love ABBA @Shaz51

hi @oceangirl ❤️

Yeah mum does like hand cremes and soaps so that is a great idea @BlueBay I;ll have a look around for some nice smelly things this week - maybe a giftbox to start with.

I will probably have to go shopping with Dad at some stage to buy something for her too - it is a bit o f a ritual - the one day of the year that I spend just with my Dad. I didn't go last year as I was too unwell.

@Shaz51 Last year I took her on a cruise to a lovely restaurant - had to book well in advance for that - it is hard to book anywhere because so many places are closed on the day.
