MERRY CHRISTMAS

 

WAKE UP!

It's Christmas Day.

We got shit to do.

Like unwrap presents and eat chocolates.

Then rest and build up an appetite for LUNCH!

We are having roast chicken, cold ham, potato and lettuce salads, garlic bread, trifle, ice cream, fruit, nuts, Christmas cookies and goodness knows what else!  I have been buying food for today, for weeks. I've forgotten all that I have squirreled away.

I think we will be eating left overs for a few days.

I hope everyone that I know in real life, and virtually through my blog, has an awesome, happy, peaceful, loving Christmas Day.

Catch ya later.

ABOVE:  Ready.

Merry Christmas my dearest friends.

1st outfit...

That's the 3rd outfit of the day for me.

I wonder how many more I can wear?

Let's see shall we?

Same gift.  LOL... we 'arranged' it.  

5th outfit...

6th outfit...

It's been a quiet 4 hours since lunch.  A couple of us had a nap, some had swims, some played cards.  But all had a nice time.

7th Outfit...

9.09 pm:  We all had left overs for dinner.  Then slowly but surely everyone left.

And now Stew and I are alone, enjoying some quiet time before bed.

We won't be long outta bed tonight.

Catch ya tomorrow.
