Monday: Boxing Day edited

 Good morning, everyone.  I was so tired yesterday evening but woke at two and couldn't get back to sleep so here I am, good and early, writing this.  I'll go back to bed soon and see if I can manage a few more hours.

Going back to Christmas Eve, the wine saga finally finished with the delivery mid afternoon.  It took ages to show as out for delivery and I had given up but it flashed up just before the 'cut off ' time for a refund.
Just the one box, thank goodness.  I'm now swimming in the stuff although my shed will look a lot less alcoholic once I give out the late gifts!

Some of you will have seen Beth's poetic feline efforts on Peter's group (Facebook).  I asked her and she said I could post them in here so it's two posts for the price of one today.  

I very much hope yesterday was lovely for you.  I enjoyed myself with Beth and Alex.  Today, two of Beth's friends are round for lunch which will be great.  Beth's doing some of the meal but basically it is leftover turkey, a vegetarian savoury crumble and veg.  Nothing too hard.
I don't think anyone will be staying too long and then I think I have the evening to myself.

Thank you for your lovely Christmas messages yesterday.

I'm off to bed again now and will do the 'poems' later on.  xx

Later on!
I got back to sleep, now it is nearly half past six and I feel loads b righter, thankfully.
Really, I have a couple more things to add.
One is that is that my Twelve Days of Christmas gifts start.  Today's is the only one that needs to be opened on a specific day - the others are in a bag for lucky dip.

You can see why.
The twelve smells of Christmas!

The other is that although the Jacquie Lawson Advent Calendar is now finished (and it has been brilliant this year), the word finding game carries on with one new word a day.  I wonder for how long that will continue.

Right - coffee calleth and I have to get going in the kitchen, I think.  Have a lovely Boxing Day - do you have any exciting plans for today.  xx
