Belated Season's Greetings
Season’s greetings ladies and gents I hope you are enjoyed or for those of you lucky people are still enjoying the holidays and that Santa was really kind to you this year because I know he was to me. For those of you who had a mediocre Christmas my advice to you is do what Sera and I did get drunk, we sure as hell did…twice! And if you cant think of it in any other way think of something you did for someone that made their Christmas, the gift of giving gives you the warm fuzzies at least.
Want to do some laughing, because I know you will laugh at what happened to me on Xmas eve so I shall share it with you. My sisters and I took our parents out to a nice place on the water for Xmas eve lunch as their present, anyway the girls had already given me their share of the money and I said I’d pay on my key card instead of carrying a lot of cash around. So we all had a great meal and you know my parents loved it because it was very family orientated and we were all happy and what not and it was also convenient because we were out of idea’s on what to get them for Christmas other wise. So the bill arrives and I go to take out my card to pay and you know what happens, it falls onto the decking and by some kind of mocking wind force (or the clumsiness of me) it tips on its side and goes into the ocean! Luckily for me mum and dad had money and Sera had money on them or else we would have been doing dishes on Christmas Eve! You can laugh its okay everyone else did and I did too eventually so it’s all good.
Also I wanted to share with you a little something that I really truly mean the best gifts are the ones that come from the heart and yes sometimes that means spending a little cash but it’s all worth it when you know that special person or people will cherish it. For me this year I think the most heartfelt gift I gave was the one I got my mum and dad on Boxing Day, I went shopping with mum for the sales (children, expecting mothers and slow moving old people should be left at home!) and mum and I went into Kmart and I thought to myself that while I was there I would get some photo’s printed and show mum the joys of wireless technology by sending the photos from my phone. So I printed lots of photo’s, as I do, and the one of her and dad came out really well from Xmas Eve, so I blew it up, made it black and white, printed it and bought a nice silver frame to go with it, mum and dad love it. It felt really good giving them that it was only something small but it meant a lot to them capturing a good moment for them to cherish, this is why you should all have a camera/phone. So next year when you’re stuck for present ideas the most thoughtful things are the best.
Well ladies and gents may your new year be grand, party hard but stay safe! And it is always a good time to start a fresh but keep in mind that every day is a new beginning if we wish it to be so, all new years resolution breakers know what I’m on about.

Oh did I laugh? Did I laugh? HELL YES! That is so...that'd happen in a cartoon! Imagine you as a cartoon...so cute!
What a lovely gift! Best wishes for the festive season!
there is something goin on with bankcards i swear...now is your turn to laugh. After a night out and about on the town i got home and was getting changed out of my skirt into my ultra comfy PJ pants- you know the ones. as i stepped into my PJ's i absent mindedly stepped onto my skirt that was now on the floor. Now this does sound harlmess enough BUT my ID and bankcard were in the pocket.
the learners card now has a dint and my bankcard is somewhat...snapped in half
this was over three weeks ago now, and still no new bankcard, but i tell ya what.. it makes saving money so much easier!!
merry christmas bee!
Haha, that makes two of us... I got drunk shortly befor leaving in the morning... Then again when we got to my friends place... Though i was stoned and off chops too. Went to a dance party on the beach instead of celebrating christmas, personally i dislike the holiday. It's just the most depressing holiday all year, so i stopped celebrating last year. Bah Humbug. As for NYE i've got a huge night planned, 3 clubs and a boat cruise (setting sail at 3.30am). I will be lucky if i can stand by the time i reach the first club... and even luckier if i can remember what year it is by the time morning comes around. Have a great one babe.
Happy New Year Spice. This last year has really sucked for me. Hopefully the new will be better. Best, Matt
Happy New Year B!
Happy New Year Belinda. Your mum and dad are so blessed to have children like you who treasure and keep them always in your heart.
