Peggy's Mundane Thread

Just went to see the St Marys Cathedral (Sydney, NSW) choir and lights Christmas show.

It was very nice, spectacular, pleasant and well attended...but also f**king dull.

'she' liked it though...




cos she's also f**king dull.

I still don't feel very Christmasy.

Fought my way round the supermarket this morning. Why do people need SO MUCH EXTRA FOOD?

Got suitable stocks of milk, custard and bananas now, anyway.

Try putting holly in your underpants you'll feel something

was going to co op today, butthe weather is pish-literally- will make the quick journey up to the post office for my milk

Bought 18 litres of milk this morning. I won't be running out any time soon.

Had a nap yesterday afternoon. It turned into a mahusive sleep. When I woke up I thought it was this morning, and that I'd missed Have I Got News For You.

In other news, it's my mum's birthday today. Since they don't sell them in the shops, I'm making her a special badge: 'I'm 87, you know'.

Will be doing some prep work throughout the day getting ready for tomorrow.

I will have a European dinner.

Turkey - French
Sprouts - Dutch
Parsnips - UK
Bacon - Danish
Onions/Spuds/Carrots - German
Garlic - Spanish

Having our dinner today, am cooking the turkey and ham, then the daughter is coming to take us to Ivybridge where we will eat with the family and open our pressies.

Doing nothing. Might take the dog to Exmouth fora run on the beach this afternoon. Then home for a few drinkies whilst doing the veg for tomorrow..

Off for a walk to Europa Point.

Shorts and Tee Shirt weather today.

Prep the veg later, then off to the pub to see Christmas in with friends.

Popped an antibiotic and a pain killer for my abscess under my wisdom tooth and it's gotta come out, does that mean I won't be as wise?

Finished wrapping a few more things that had to be wrapped. Off to the eldest daughters for dinner tomorrow, it's her first attempt at cooking the Christmas dinner and I'm looking forward to it.

I paused for a moment yesterday as I glanced at my xmas dinner. Apart from the 'pigs in blankets', it was exactly the same as the roast I'd eaten a few days ago.

I feel cheated.

Doesn't the paint take a long time to dry on this site..........

I assume it's because we're all living on the cutting edge of life and can't find the off button...............thinking about that..........I didn't notice an on button either

Sprouts and mash = bubble and squeak, next.

bubble and squeak, describes your tummy sfterwards, sprouts guarenteed to make you flatulent.

Didn't get to have my afternoon nap til gone 6pm yesterday.

Thankfully, I'll be reverting to the usual 3-ish / 4-ish routine today.

Set the alarm yesterday so my nap didn't overlap with the beginning of Shrek the Third. Only to discover, not only that I'd seen it before, but also that the DVD's quite clearly on the DVD shelf.

Wasn't that good, either.

Have put off going out for milk today, feeling a bit under the weather.

Went to the January sales today, three days early. Or so I thought.

They were sold out.

I'm off to the library. I've finished my book. Janet gets John in the end.

Been in work moving benches and wiring up a hob in the 'kitchen'.

Got my tickets for Aldershot, will be taking the Cerbera.

Short of milk.

The kitchen light stopped working, so I went to Homebase (nectar points, innit) and bought a new tube. Only it still doesn't work, so it must be the starter thing.

Will have to wait til tomorrow to do the washing up.

And in other news, I've changed my phone to German.
