Christmas actually begins for me here. With family events changing to have Boxing day fun on Christmas Eve, it now feels different and also things have been hetic. But things have been busy too. Family always is nice to catch up and maybe truths will be told. But lets begin.
Christmas Eve Eve.
The final saturday of working before Christmas, tired at 3am from video editing the Christmas Haul video.
The Mug and Bethesda Pins for a special goodbye
The Greggs Gift for a peng friendly twitter mate
The Presents Wrapped
But that was done and finally with work finishing with Games sold, advice given and also a last minute mince pie and even a customer to see when I got home from work, with talking and walking home with my Parents. IT felt like a nice way to end the night, well that and food then watching a film too. I did weigh in at 191.6 to see how it would grow after Boxing day, it probably would.
The mince Pie from work, I just ate the crust since mince Pies aint my liking
The meal. Ham, Crisps, Salad, Wraps, Scone, Ketchup, Yogurt & Mint and Mayo along with chicken sprinkle
But alas it was then time for a shave before a night time to prepare for the festivities, the last bite of the advent calandar chocolate, the smile on my face that both of the gifts. Also it was another girl's birthday, So hannah got £20 via PayPal. But the anticipation of this was enticing, since a Black Friday deal was given to someone who has no clue on what I actually bought, Also work discounts with Playstation Coasters is cool too.
Oh Christmas Eve...
The Wet Morning
So, my eyes awoke at 8:46, a sunday and with clouds out and the dog started barking. It was nice to check the internets and chatting to Katie on Kik, Since technically i haven't got her anything for christmas but to be fair, I might be ordering food for her more next year and a goal of meeting up with her. So spending now might be over the top. Considering I've spent over £200 on Christmas already But then I got up and it was time to get changed before #dogwalkingqwithomracer.
This was the time we went to monksmead and back, knowing my luck, I had a call from a customer from the job I did last night, I could hardly hear him too which didn't help, But none the less, we walked, played ball with Rosie and walked up back on the main road. About 40 minutes long.

Afterwards I got back and checked e-mails and got some admin done as well as type some of this up before getting a show and by 11:50, we were off to the event.

The Journey.
Well, we drove to my sister's flat, the rain was drizzle and also the mind was running with ideas and how things go. But we got there and it was a quick wait before my sister got in and then we were off. a trip to the cardinal's hat.
The wait before we head off
We were all catching up with sisters life from this to that to the other and the day out mum and dad had yesterday. Then we got there, with cloudy antics and a nice amount of people around.
Arrving at the Pub for Christmas
The meal.
We got in and was greeted by my cousin as well as then the others before kisses and I sat at the near end of the table, with mum and dad on the side of me, but then my sisters boyfriend did ask if I wanted a drink, so I had a glass of water to be safe. But it was nice to chat to a few people but I was mostly quiet anyway. Then the first part of the meal arrived. Some Festive Soup with bread. I did taste a chicken-esque one. But i did burn my tongue on it from eating it too early I think.
The Festive Soup
After that, someone shouted about Pulling Crackers, so we did and I had one b ut my dad didn't get any. My purple hat ripped quite quickly really. The frog was nice and a bad joke.
The Joke, hat and Frog
But after talking and a short wait, it was time to have the Main Turkey. Well actually 10 minutes later we managed to get veg and that was added on to make the meal. There was sauced which was next to a Carvery as well but the roast we had were not from the Carvery.
The Roast Turkey and extras
But then it was enjoying that as well as making sure that I didn't over do it, and I was close to overdoing it. But it was worth it, my shirt was getting tight, if i was dating and that happened to her, I would be pretty attracted to that. But that plate was emptied anyway. Sister's boyfriend made a joke about needing a wheelchair to be getting me out from over eating.
The empty plate
After we were more chatty with everything from games to cars to farmers and the like, but it was then time for the amazing and rich Chocolate brownie. Which this can make it easier to gulp down, it was with Ice cream as well.

The deserts were really rich as well. I know alot of people couldn't handle the richness in the food but it was really really tasty and i felt pretty full and sickly full for the rest of the afternoon, it was lucky I was not having to worry about walking anywhere. But then while people went toilet and secretly paid for it, we then had some coffee and teas and last drinks before we finally left and it was slightly darker in the clouds. But we got into the car and then we were off to pick up my Sister and her boyfriend since they had to drop their car off.
The Presents and tea.
Then we got to theirs and once picked up, a radio heart listen while heading to my Uncles. With the rain starting to pick up a little bit. But we got there by 3pm-ish and it was okay to be the last ones there. But we got in and noticed some new features and then more greetings before we sat in the small, cosy living room and we finally got around to me handing out the #presents for a #village even though in the end it felt like 4 boxes worth. But I was the one on my knees and handing it out. From the mat I got, to magazine subscriptions uncles got and there was even more presents for all.
There was some funny moments and one of those moments was a bit of a direct fat related mark from my Grandad's Fiancee to my auntie who isn't even fat, we all laughed, i did dream about something similar comment wise like this with someone from feabie, maybe with Franks but looking back, it was one of those things I've done.
But then it was tea and there was some nice meals like a Gammon that was marinated in Coca Cola, Onions, Garlic and something else and it was actually really tasty. I mean succulent. But that with salad, crackers, crips and chutney. But it really made things nice too. I had seconds since the salad, chutney and crackers with gammon was too good to pass up.

A heading back wet evening
Then it was soon to be the end of the night. We had to make our way back home and drop off my sister too. But we got things packed and also iI ended up forgetting the money I got given which is a bummer but once we loaded the car and I sat in the back, we drove from the uncle's back to my sister's place, talking about what happened and the banter as a recap of what went on. Then we dropped my sister and we said our goodbyes until tomorrow for her and another time for him, then it was a car ride to home with the mat next to me in the car.
WE then got home and it was time for me to Walk Rosie in the dark field. But with rain and LED leads, we could see her easily. It was pretty heavy rain though too.

Then it was looking at the presents and making this up and relaxing while watching a movie. Life it was called, but the Advent calendar had been finished with a Galaxy twirl inside it. The presents I did okay with though they were unique or I purchased on the Black Friday Sale via Steam or via Work.
The end of the Advent Calendar
The Presents I got for this Christmas so far.
But then it was time to get things relaxed up and prepare for the big Event which is Christmas. Things will be good and smarter for me too.
For Now, Merry Christmas and hope it all works out.
This was a nice event, the air was fresh, it was a Saturday and Work was abound. So after fapping as the usual before any normal day goes ahead, I walked out and then Ran down to work. This was at 8:54. As I ran down, I noticed my sisters boyfriend offered a lift as I was running down listening to some decent music and getting into work by 9:05.Work felt quiet and a few sales here and there, so to pass time, I did a small tidy and got the FP Sims from Thursday ready to put out by heating the price stickers off each sim. Then I also had to drop off something which was a customer's job and didn't charge since it was a regular and it was nothing too advanced.
Then I popped into Carphone warehouse and saw a mate of mine serving my sisters boyfriend and He was being shown Pixel and some £38 a month deals with a £40 upfront for the normal size. Then I walked back with him to work and chatted to give him some insight to Boxing Day hype, with the second half of the family.
Then I used some Christmas cards lying around to write some out and pass them to people who had given me some earlier in the week. They were handed out to each and most were busy so I left them on tables, only one I managed to give it to in person. But all thanked me at one point which was nice.
Making cards to neighbours and friends in work
My colleague arrived, then he had 2 presents with them and he "these are for you, since we talk about them all the time and there was a deal on" Which I said he didn't have to but he used it as a thank you for me covering for him with his recent new life of a second child. I hugged him as a thank you and then we chatted and he left to finish his other shopping.
It was amazing to have to boxes for Christmas
Then it was more standard parts of selling and chatting and some banter which was fun like the measuring tape malteaser challenge, but it was soon 2:30 and my neighbour Gave me a box of Chocolate from another shop in work's landlord's place. He did it as a thank for looking after the stall as an when I can. Bless.
The chocolates from my neighbour :)
Then it was heading towards the closing time of the neighbours, Which that was about 3pm, but for me it turns out shortly after, I had a phone call from a couple and that ended up having an iPad mini setup with them which made the day a normal long day. So by 4:45, I was leaving work like any normal Saturday, but with the exception of a lovely sunset with the Christmas eve going into darkness.
The lights and sunset as i was leaving work
Then the run to work was nice, the usual 15 minute run up which included monksmead and all. But I got home and chatted to the parents and showed them the gifts I had gotten, then it was chores until I had chance to relax. But before that was a chance to Bag the kreme's up for freezing, which I tried 3 of them and it wasa divine orgasm in my mouth. But then it was all tied up and put in the freezer to consume later next week after the big meals that were going to be ahead.

Then it was relaxing and time to get all the presents wrapped. With a good sized bag full of things to wrap, I started and then hoping to get it ready to play some ps1 games later that night. The PSP had died but I was getting the Vita TV all sorted for playing some.
And then it was a nice filling light tea of ham and salmon with jacket potato as well as bakedbeans and crackers. That was nice to eat while watching a classic Dad's Army Episode of a race that went wrong.
The meal
Once that and the Presents were wrapped, it was time to relax before a proper relaxing bath which helped ease my back, But it was actually making me excited for Christmas itself, especially after I got a special present from mum and dad for next year's streaming ideas and also classics to replay in new ways.
