I Can't Be Bothered ...........

[Tilly2]

to decorate a Christmas tree or even do something with the pile of cards we've received. Is this the beginning of a crabby old age?

[ummmm]

No :-)

I have a little pile of cards next to me, and that's where they'll stay, and I haven't put a tree up for the last 5 years.

You're not crabby or old, Tilly2.
If it wasn't for mrsfactor and the expectations of the young factors (who'll be coming home for Christmas over the next two days), I'd never get round to these thing either

[ummmm]

btw....I'm in my 30's..

^^^I'm going to say that as often as I can because it's not for much longer!!

[Tilly2]

It just seems a shame that all that excitement has gone and it's now a chore.
Perhaps I'm just tired.

[Tilly2]

ummmm, the forties are fab!

Have a cup of tea Tilly and then you'll feel better.

[Tilly2]

I've had four this morning, Tony. I've been up since ten to six.

[ummmm]

I hope so Tilly. I've quite enjoyed (most of) my 30's.

[Tilly2]

I bet your Christmas tree looks lovely, ratter.

[RATTER15]

Tilly lol, it does, its about 2 feet high and made of pine cones :-)

[Tilly2]

Is it homemade?

[RATTER15]

Nope, My good lady picked it up somewhere.

[ummmm]

Ron - nice one. It's impressive talking to someone in their 80's when my own grandparents still struggle with a remote control :-) x

[netibiza]

Was gonna say it is nothing to do with old age, you must just be crabby, but don't take it personally :-)

[Tilly2]

Another thing I usually do is make a door wreath, However the blackbirds have eaten all the holly berries, so I won't bother this year. (Help me please, I think I'm morphing into a fed up sort of person!)

[netibiza]

aw Tilly, you morph away if it'll make you happy. I was hard pushed to get going this year and Mr N would be delighted to have a non-xmas, but I have managed to put up the tree and a few decs.

[RATTER15]

ummmm, I stuggle with remote controls and I got no idea how to use our video recorder, actually im not even sure we got one to use, we have a dvd player but havnt used it for 18 months, I dont even think its connected to anything. Just not really interested in anything TV related I suppose, we dont even have a TV downstairs, just one in the bedroom.
