HAPPY CRIMBO MATIES...

Ok.... things have been right proper hectic around here, the wrapping job has taken up every minute of the day when I aint been minding and every minute of the evenings.... some nights up till gone midnight, but its all done and dusted.... Father Christmas was pleased that over the past 4 weeks I had managed to wrap 10,000 yes 10,000 pressies for the grotto.... Im all bloody wrapped out, you should see my sad state of wrapping me lads and minded nippers pressies today and this evening lmfao...... and of course the more Strawberry wine Ive drunk the worse this wrapping is lmfao...... it does not pay to be rat-arsed whilst wrapping :)

And I had nippers full time this week cos the schools broke up.... so Im sorry I have neglected you... I WILL catch up with emails and posts and blobs over the coming week....

Anyways, I wanna fank you all for sticking by me through thick and thin this past year, its not been an easy ride for me what with 2 major surgeries with such shit complications....... but soon it will be a new year..... and things will be different, right? LOL



SOooo........... HAPPY CHRISTMAS MY DEAR FRIENDS....... health, love, laughter, happieness and good friendships I wish upon you all for the coming year ahead....

know you are loved...... and even though I am tad rat-arsed, I mean it from the depths of me heart :) hic hic

Merry Christmas to you and your boys. You are one wonderful woman and so strong with the will to survive all life deals to you. I'm so glad I discovered your blog. If you hadn't posted on HBO I would have missed the pleasure of getting to know you.

Hope you got the parcel off your neighbour, and that you like your pressies. It's not much, but I thought you deserved something. :)

You are an amazing woman. Even as difficult as 2009 has been for you, you've managed to bring so many smiles and so much laughter to so many.

Mel, I wish you a year filled with love, laughter, happiness, health, and the very best that 2010 has to offer.

Love, hugs, and kisses,
Penny

sparrow said...

I'm thinking you could instruct classes on crimbo pressie wrapping.

You could offer them all year round and charge an arm and a leg because you're "certified"!

Love you so much Mellie.

Carla said...

You always make me smile, despite your troubles.
Here's hoping 2010 treats you with respect!!

Flowerpot said...

Lisa said...

Okay. It's the New Year. Has it been better so far?? I know I have told you for the last two years that the NEXT year would be so much better for you. I figured I better ask quickly in case it disintegrates into a big steaming pile of dog poo.

So, my question is... better so far??

Fire Byrd said...

Fabbo comment over at mine, very funny TA!
Have a great New Year and a better year all round.

AliceKay said...

Intense Guy said...

Ho ho ho!!!!!!!!!!

You want to talk about rat-arsed! I didn't even notice you posted this until today!

Hangs head in shame.

I hope you had a wonderful Christmas and thoroughly enjoyed the new year's eve celebration!

I really hope that the year 2010 brings you many smiles and the end of the pain in your legs and the hobbling. I hope it brings you financial security and a warm place to drink your tea and eat from a neverending supply of Marmite.

I hope you had a good Christmas. Did the tree get put together in time? We're freezing to the bone in Minnesota. Still we are glad to see 2009 gone and dusted and my eyeballs, fingers and toes are all crossed in hope of a much better year in 2010. I'm wishes you and the lads a much better year too.

Love you Mel...J

Happy New Year

Robin said...

Just hoping all is well with you.....

Where the Hell are you? If you need your bony ass kicked to git you to post, I'll be happy to oblige...From one who cares..The Buff..

Go Figure said...

MT:???shit complications and rat-assed???? A tough combination. sounds a tad bit seriass.

Cindy said...

I hope you had a good Christmas with your boys! Thanks for the card- I was so surprised to hear from you via snail mail. Libby came in from the mailbox saying, "You got something from England, can I open it?!" Of course by then she already had it pretty well opened. I didn't get cards sent this year- didn't even buy any. If I do buy them, I write them out and then never get them to the P.O. Long about February I end up stuffing them all in a cupboard.
10thousand presents wrapped?! I'd never want to see a roll of Christmas wrap again as long as I lived!

Of course the best to you and your family for this coming year. The Stickman
