Christmas
"Not a creature was stirring not even a mouse"
You must be joking! but...
I LOVE christmas in our house!
the noise and the chaos and the worn out tree
the family members that drank too much sherry!
A christmas tradition to raise a glass with our neighbours come midday
lots of festive music and the present opening delay.
my mum and my brother in the kitchen having the usual debate: " how long will that turkey take!?!!"
My little niece impatient for the christmas cake!
My mum writing notes on who bought what..
so not a single 'thank you' would be forgot!
A last minute panic that the favorite christmas movie was missed
and that one special person under the misteltoe not kissed.
a Pictionary game that got a little heated
because neither team could be defeated!
The christmas party, sparkly dress and cinnamon laced booze,
that one christmas present that you'll just never use!
The party hat that falls over your eyes
the christmas crackers silly surprise.
...and when I am overwhelmed by christmas cheer and my brothers have just poured another beer,
The car is icy and the snow I am sick of stomping,
I take some time-out, wine in hand and carry on comping!
