rikes and frausorge for the very lovely cards ♥ My living room is starting to look extra festive now with all the cards.
Last night I was in the bath and Milo crept in and started to blatantly drink from the toilet. He never does that, he has a freshly filled bowl of water upstairs, a water fountain and bowl of water in the kitchen and he drinks from the toilet. At least now I know for a fact what caused the drooling issues, but really, the toilet? WTF, Milo.
I was happy with the winner of Strictly and enjoyed the show dances, especially Karim and Kelvin's. I've never really got all the flailing over Kelvin and his hips/sexuality, but there was one point in his showdance where the music slowed down and he and Oti strode across the floor and I got it then. They looked amazing. If you're interested it's from 1:03 here
It's a semi-busy day tomorrow. Limb centre again in the morning and then we're looking after my niece and nephew for the afternoon, including a school pick up. My MiL has said for a while all she wants for Christmas is to see my oldest nephew again and his social worker finally agreed she could. So, she's going along with my SIL for their contact meeting and will get to spend an hour or so with him. She was thrilled when she was given permission, and I'm so happy for her.
We've also invited my Mil and FiL over on boxing day. It'll be the first time they've ever actually spent any time over the actual three main days of Christmas at ours, and actually the first time in many many years James will be off for boxing day. We've also invited my SiL's partner, which I struggled with for a while. I mean, I like the man but if he comes it meant my niece and nephew couldn't. In the end, they preferred to stay home, which is fair enough, when you're five and four you want to be with your new toys, and as my SiLs partner will be alone all over Christmas day, it didn't feel right not to invite him.
It does mean I've had to increase my plans for the boxing day buffet. I've not bought and prepared as much in recent years due to James being at work and only me and Corey being at home most of the day. But this year we'll have double the numbers so it'll be like the mega spreads of yesteryear.
