Today key word OUT OF STOCK

Today was the last minute dash for my husband whilst I rested at home due to my health.  I’m kind of glad some things were a real hit and we were lucky to get them discounted . The family started to do a secret Santa type thing because I used to get so emotionally stressed I would be ill every Christmas and end up crying . Anyway hubby returned with the last of pressies for my son and my daughtersand grandchildren’s presents.
Pre secret. Santa I chose my middle daughter Bronte  and hubby chose the other daughter Abbey  in secret Santa. What to buy your daughter !!!!!
I had in my head I was buying the her a Marimo.as she has a fascination for Japan and she had longed for one of these . Anyone who doesn’t know what this is it’s kind of cute and I will post a photo of the type of thing I mean . The only problem is I tried to order and it said ( This will arrive after Christmas ). My planning skills have been the worst ever since having my children. The youngest daughter pulled her dads name out on the secret Santa,. My son Caleb by the way is exempt from secret Santa because he is only 15 . Next year I think I need to plan better as definateley today has been testing and secret Santa is awful in some ways as you can’t by a present for each and it can be cost restricted.
I ordered a bike for my son .... So off they go this evening to pick  up the bike and they walked to the store . I call my husband and he said the bike isn’t in until after Christmas. I’m like your joking right !!!! Pre Christmas stress starts . My son is disappointed as they are turned away without the bike but promised it will be in tomorrow by the time I had a phone call to the store . You never know though with stores when they say the next day wether it will happen so I’m unsure at present . I’m sure they say that so I can’t continually moan down the telephone. Earlier in the day I said I said when ordering the bike they will be in early this evening to pick it up and we would make it up. So anyway I’m at home both jay and Caleb and our little pug walked to the nearest store and come back with nothing . I can’t say how cross I was ....why didn’t the person from the shop say it wasn’t in stock and why when I said they would walk down to get it didn’t they say , Sorry it won’t be here until after the 29 th December . After  Christmas!!!!! What your kidding I say !!!    Surely when you say it’s an early Christmas present it dosnt mean after Christmas. Finally I get hold of Steve  at the store apologising  and promises me it will be in tomorrow morning. I’m not sure and as for the marimo no delivery until after Christmas and some not until January . Option two an Amazon Echo  ....out of stock .I had forgotten to say Jay went back earlier in the afternoon and come back with ......a little something from pandora . Tonight just before I go to bed I double check my daughter has a pandora bracelet as I’m sure she has  !!!!  The reply pings back I don’t have one mum !!!! aahhhh the stress starts again . Now I’m thinking she will know what I’m getting . So much for secret Santa !!!!! Lol šŸ¤£šŸ¤£šŸ¤£šŸ¤£šŸ¤£šŸ¤£šŸ¤£

Happy Humbug Christmas šŸŽ„ lol šŸ˜

Weekend

Well the weekend has been nice and a little calmer than it’s been but it’s still unsettled as the house still needs to finished and we are into the 6 th week. Jays dad is coming over for dinner and we have our granddaughter as my daughter has gone to Alton towers and you know what there like . I never remember going places like my daughter and not having my kids with me. The kids become important and they come before me . As you may know we have 4 kids ....3 daughters and one Son . Our son is the only one that lives at home with us and the girls have there own lives. My granddaughter Evie-mae is having a great time today playing minecraft and singing Ed sheeran songs. Today the flooring chap was supposed to arrive to latex the floor ahead of this Monday. We have waited all morning and it’s now 12.15 but he hasn’t arrived yet . So all that emptying the room and moving the virgin server box has caused our internet to stop working which brought the house to a melt down. We have to wait n

Our visit this year to Szentendre our twin town

We had the good fortune with my Husband and I being Mayor and Mayoress of the town to be invited to our twin town called Szentendre. Szentendre is in Hungary and is a really beautiful and very scenic and picturesque town and has a real magic about it . It is grand in style and very majestic in style and class in every shape and form. This majestic town sits near the Danube which is surprisingly wide and just beautiful. The town has cobbled streets and tiny alleys that look like something out of a magic book. There is always something to do and it’s the city of art and has a colony of artists. 162 artists live in the town of Szentendre and when being there I could understand why . The town can look the same but different in respect of natural lighting.  There are many little places to eat and visit some great museums and galleries. Each artist is so different and there prospective of arts is so different. Some artists sit on the street and paint whilst some also do caricature drawings w

Heat and plenty of cold drinks to keep my energy and trying to arrange my sons education

Why is it when your life is following a great path and everything plateus out another spanner comes flying into the works? It’s been so hot and I will tell you what’s been going on recently which will explain my first sentence. So it’s been absolutely boiling I hope your all enjoying the sun šŸŒž but personally it’s been rather hot for me to get comfortable at night hence being awake at 02.37 am . Mum has been to visit but bless her she has been unwell with vertigo so it’s been hard to see mum and dad but every piece of time is like a golden nugget as they live in Essex. The last few weeks it has been really difficult,  Our gorgeous son is taught by and independent teaching agency for the last two years. Everything they have done has brought our 16 year old son up to speed with other kids of his age . The way the week was set out was great and the best environment for Caleb to learn. We have been told that the education panel that funds our son won’t be funding him for the independent te
