Not the Christmas That We Expected ...

 


We've not had the Christmas we expected, but we had a Christmas and that's more than some have.

Santa left us a dose of flu each.  Alan started on Tuesday and me on Christmas Eve, we did manage to pick up the Christmas food order from Booths, but Alan wasn't thinking straight and accidentally brought the supermarket's shopping basket home with us still carrying the food in the boot of the car.

  We will return it, sheepishly and apologetically when we are both thinking and walking straight.


We didn't forget the gravy ... we somehow cobbled the Christmas dinner together between us, and manfully and womanfully ploughed through as much of it as we could.  It was the one meal of the day we could manage, it's been leftovers ever since.  Thank goodness for fridges.

The best news of all, none of the Christmas chocolate or alcohol has been touched ... so it should be a good New Year.

I do hope your Christmases were good.  🎄

  1. So sorry to hear you were poorly-Norrie was poleaxed last Tuesday by a shocking cold and I have the milder version. We too are eating what we can from the load of food still remaining in the fridge. Glad to hear you are on the mend now but take care not to overdo things and let your body recover. Catriona
