It’s that time of year again! Advent has begun! Christmas is coming, the decorations and lights are all thinking away and everything has gone all cozy!
Anyone else excited for Christmas? What’s on your Christmas list? How will you spend Christmas?
For me I get a little mini Christmas as my birthday is during advent so when I get my presents I put them under the tree as well.
Aw that’s so lovely that you get to put your birthday gifts under the tree as well. What are you hoping to get for your birthday?
I’m excited but not excited if that makes sense. I’m excited because everything looks and feels festive, decorations are up, Xmas music is playing.. I can wear my Xmas jumper without people giving me looks like they do when it’s summer. But town is busier now, people are everywhere and it’s noisy. This is the part of it I don’t like. But luckily I’ve been able to do most of my Xmas shopping online so I haven’t had to brave the crowded shops too much.
For Xmas I’m hoping to get some new paints as I do a lot of painting and my supplies are running a bit low.. Some new brushes would be nice too.
I'm hoping to be home for Xmas but I don't know how possible it'll be as I'm working away at the moment. That will be a bit rough but I’m grateful I can whatsapp my family so we can at least keep in touch over the festive period. But keeping my fingers crossed that I can be home by Xmas Eve.

Thank you! I really hope so too. I love being with my family at Xmas, it’s a nice quiet environment usually so I always look forward to it. Are you a present opener or feeler or both? I’m not as bad now but when I was younger I used to feel the presents and if the excitement got too much for me I would open a present or two. My parents weren’t happy if I got caught! One time I did it and then rewrapped it so no one would know lol! Lol buy yourself some wrapping paper and then open and rewrap them at midnight, it worked for me 
I hope you get all those nice things for Xmas this year. I need more make up stuff, I only wear it occasionally but not for long because my skin is super sensitive! But I do like to pretty myself up sometimes.
That’s a good idea I might try shopping later. Sometimes I don’t finish work until like 6-7pm so I could go after, that way I miss the rush hour traffic then as well. I like driving at night as well the Xmas lights and decorations look lovely in the dark. What I dislike is the LEDs on the cars they’re so bright and it’s blinding in the dark.
Happy belated birthday! 
I hope you enjoyed it. Your presents sound lovely.. the lava lamp sounds nice too I’ve always wanted one of them lol! Christmas next...
Yippee!!! I’m watching the Christmas Chronicles movie tonight. Soooo excited for Xmas Day! 
I've got to get ready for work now. See you later.

Aww thank you for your understanding. It was really rotten but I’m feeling better now and have enjoyed Xmas baking today. I made some gingerbread men and a cute reindeer cookie. Omg I’m sorry! Neighbours can be the worst they really can lol! I’m sorry yours have been being such a pain.. but good thinking capturing video evidence, keep that safe and then if it escalates you can use it. Have you got any noise cancelling headphones? I was thinking something like that would help when your neighbours start banging. Sometimes my neighbours on the left can play really loud music *rolls eyes* so I always put on my noise cancelling headphones then. They’re an absolute lifesaver lol!
Aww nice that sounds so lovely! Sounds like you have a close bond with your mum. I wish I got to spend a bit more time with my mum than I do. Been a long time since I got to spend a whole evening with her.
Yeah bit rubbish but hey at least I’m not working all day Xmas Eve and I get to drive home when it’s light so at least I won’t be blinded by all the horrible LED lights in the dark lol! Hopefully you’ll still have a fab Xmas despite the bad neighbours. You’ll be so busy with your make up stuff and Yoshi Nintendo gift card you’ll not notice the neighbours I bet! I don’t think anyone’s hinted about what I might be getting so I’ve no idea. Yeah longest 9 days ever lol!!!! Xmas Eve is the longest day ever though I think. I can’t get to sleep on that night way too excited lol.
Omg yeah and they all do it to! Lights flashing, horns going and speeding past either making a rude gesture or actually hear them shout it out their window. And there’s never police around when they do it I’ve noticed. Although funny but true story, a couple of years ago I’d finished work late and was driving home on the motorway. Three modern flashy cars sped up, flashing their lights because I was doing the speed limit. They shot past me and then the overhead speed cameras got them! All 3 flashed! Probably one of my fave that’s karma moments. I’m sorry your mums Toyota is playing up. I have a Mini Cooper and it’s mostly reliable but it does have this weird fault where the ABS light keeps coming on and off. I’m not technically minded with cars so I just hope it all stays working lol! My street is lined with Audis, BMWs and Tesla’s mostly. And the people who own them all think they’re better than everyone else! Like you said people boast and they make it their mission to let you know it. Yeah I think you’re right, I don’t think they are nice looking, I think people just say it because they’re rich enough to drive these supposed to be amazing cars. I’d rather have my Mini any day and be a nice person than boastful and rude.
Aww well I’m really glad you have your mum. I always think of my mum as my best friend and it sounds like your mum is yours too. My mum is much the same very understanding of my situation and the things I struggle with. Being asked questions constantly must be frustrating and exhausting! I’m really sorry you have to put up with that. Sounds awful for you xx.
Aww thanks, I’ll try and friend you. I’m not sure how it works on this site but I’ll have a look lol!
I haven’t played any of them for a long time but I find myself really wanting to play them again. Must be nostalgia or something lol! You can’t buy them on Steam or EA App unfortunately. Yeah the later Simpsons are pretty bad and it pains me to say that lol! I think the best was from season 1-16 for me. I really enjoyed them.
Lol I like Patty and Selma as well! There’s a funny episode where Sideshow Bob tries to kill Selma, it’s an early one but so funny lol!
