I spent the day at my sister Hazels, David and Sarah came about 1pm for me, we were being picked up from theirs about 2pm by Chris. Chris’s mum and dad Eileen and Len were there, we had a drink while we waited for Ruth and Doug to arrive, they were waiting for a taxi so Chris went to pick them up. We had a nice roast dinner and buffet laid on, after we ate we exchanged our presents, then drank lots more. Hazels friend came later, I had a play with Nicola on her new wii game that was fun even after lots of vodka

I don’t know what time we left, i was staying at David and Sarahs, that was me til the next morning

A Very Happy Christmas To You All xxxx
Well i’ve had lots of sleep ins, the Christmas shopping is finally done, oh thank goodness, so i only had to get my food and drink in, but that was effort enough, even though there’s only me i still have about six bags to carry.

This year i’m on my own but i’d rather that than the Christmas i spent with the selfish person i was with last year and i’ve made sure i have nice food to eat and plenty to drink. Unfortunately i’m not where i want to be or with who i want they’re thousands of miles away and i couldn’t get a flight to be with him.
So i’ve had a nice quiet day i made a nice dinner but i couldn’t do it justice and finish it, i watched shrek 2, i love it I’ve had a nice bottle of wine watching coronation street, then i’ll watch some films and have some vodka,

On Thursday i went to meet my friend Elaine for drinks with her friends from the physio, they’re all in frames from breakages or just had them removed. I eventually arrived about 430pm, i wanted to pick some last minute things up on the way there, after being nearly knocked on my butt three times no way was i going back in to the city.

Elaine was really pleased to see me and her friends were really nice and welcoming too, we had a great afternoon and night, i usually drink doubles but her friend Kevin was getting me trebles.

We got a taxi home to mine i think it must have been about 1am then Elaine phoned for her husband to come and get her. I don’t know how i managed to get up for work the next day, but it’s a good job it was the last day that’s all i can say. Also we were only there an hour and half and i went promptly back to bed when i got back home

I was very tired so when i got home after work so i went to bed for a couple of hours. When i woke i had a nice soak in the bath, i’d bought myself some christmas bath bombs so my water was lovely and soft and full of stars and glitter, I’d also bought some new makeup for the christmas too, i thought it was black eyeshadow but it was more like a charcoal, very sultry all the same and a change from my usual brown i’d worn forever and it went very nice with my new top and shorts.

I met the girls from work in one of the bars in town we had a couple of drinks there before we went to the party which was in the Adelphi Hotel where it’s been held every year now. They put a nice party on for us and we get 3 free drinks, raffle tickets, which i’m yet to win anything, but hey ho.

When we went in to sit at our table i was greeted by Bernie our union rep, he gave me a bottle of southern comfort to have a drink, he also brought the bottle back to the table later. After the buffet which is always really nice we had the raffle, this year all but two won on our table, another and me

Afterwards we had lots of dancing to the disco, i mostly danced with my friend Maureen or Sheila. We were also given more drinks vouchers, there was a lot not  turned up because of illness.

The music finished   about 1am, we were lucky getting home because Eileens son drives a taxi,

So all in all it was a lovely night, but oh i suffered the next day, so i just cabbaged all day on the sofa
