Christmas number 1

Well to start my first weekend of christmas i failed my FFA exam. I get to resit the course in May though and i only failed it by 9% so luckily i don't have too much to make up on.

After i got my exam results i popped into M&S to spend the last of my sky vouchers on christmassy goodies. We got little stockings full of marshmellows too. On route to the bus stop i went to borders and got Monopoly and Trivial Pursuit to play over christmas (we're so rock n roll) then got a cab because i was too lazy to get on the bus loaded with bags.

My dad was far too tired to do the travel up on friday so i spent the night in whilst Martyn went to band practice. Yep he's decided to do music, i think this was mainly because its a mates band and he's only playing bass. Easy stuff! he came home all hyper and happy pretty glad he got back into something he enjoys. I spent the night watching Nigella Lawson cuddled up on my sofa with the kitty. When he got back we ended up staying up till the early hours of the morning playing monopoly, i went bankrupt. Ooops.

Saturday i got up super early thanks to a kitten jumping on me wanting his breakfast. yeah good one. My dad got lost on his way here but when he finally made it we did a quick catch up and headed into town. Little Tokyo was our first stop, Sushi and a Bento box = fully ace. Then we browsed shops and found the TV we are going to buy with the money we get for christmas. I lost the battle with the TV i said 26" was big enough but the boys said i was wrong and a 32" was so much better.
Home for snoozing and then Wall E and mexican food for nibbles. How cute was Wall E, it made me laugh and get quite sad all at the same time.

Today i cooked a christmas style dinner seeing as my dad will be in Canada for christmas so this was our first in a long line of christmas weekends. We did present swapping and my dad gave us the full amount we need for a new TV. I was shocked to say the least it was the last thing i expected with how much his travelling is costing him, now i wish i'd got him a few more presents! I did love him coming to visit i hope he comes up a bit more when he's home.
Oh Martyn also put Sweeney Todd on this morning at 11am, not really sunday morning viewing but i'm always in the mood for johnny depp. I wish he never had that stupid tash!
We watched E.T this afternoon and the Steelers game.
Time to do laundry and maybe play more monopoly.

2 days left of work and then nothing till January 2nd, seriously cannot wait for that.
