I'm just happy happy happy. I can't believe how much I missed Dazza. It wasn't till I saw him at the airport that I realized just how much I had.

Life is good for me. I'm a lucky woman.

Attempts to play poker with my custom playing cards could result in injury or death. I have regular bicycles for that.

Thinking about Christmas is making me happy today.

I've got the beginings of my design for my christmas cake in my mind, and I've started planning the lunch menu also.

I love Christmas. It's my favourite day of the year.

On the 24th of December, I like Christmas. Right now, Christmas is just a big ball of stress and money worries sitting on the other side of a another big bunch of stress and study worries.

I hate that the TV is full of xmas ads already. It's the one time of year I really feel broke and it gets earlier every year.

My mum bought me a magazine subscription as a present last year (OK ... I confess ... it's Good Housekeeping and I like it ... a woman can dream, can't she?) . The November issued arrived right at the end of September, in time for October as they do, and it's just Stuffed Full of Christmas! AAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRGH!
So I've not opened the wrapper yet - I'm saving it for, like, er, November!
But I don't watch much telly so the ads don't get to me, and the shops here, such as they are, haven't got into Christmas yet either. YAY!

I went into my local Sainsbury's store yesterday and couldn't find a goddamned thing, on account of them moving the entire store around to accomodate Christmas.

Fuck.

Dana, I agree with your sentiments, but this is the happy thread. Take it outside, troublemaker!

Hely's just come in.
I was slightly worried about her - she's usually here at 08.30.
But then maybe she was - Monday to Wednesday our Finance Assistant opens the office and she's on annual leave. Hely might have turned up, decided it was one of the random days we weren't in (cats don't do weekends) and gone back home.

Anyway she's fed and curled up on her bed and I am happy.

Also I finally got a response about my wig. I'm still annoyed with them, but at least they confirmed payment was received and said that I should receive delivery Mon-Weds. Wasn't today. Better bloody be tomorrow!

ETA: My new catfood has arrived.
As has the new litter tray for Diz (see Pissing on Your Chips thread).
The tray was cheapish off eBay and the catfood is pretty much the same as buying from the supermarket - just much much better for them and bought in advance so I don't have to budget for it for the rest of the month.

Also I love the fact that as we're an hour behind now, the Dwellars come out to play earlier
