I picked up my turkey and cheese and honey from the food bank.
My ex hubby leaves today to see his family so Im taking his cloths to the laundrymat and wash them and dry them for his week away.
Hes giving me the keys to his place. He has a better newer oven and a Christmas tree all decorated up.
Plus he needs some body to feed and clean litter boxes of his cats. So I be spending more time there then at my place.
I was thinking of pitching in at the soup kitchen or the homeless shelter. Being alone on holidays is some thing I got use to. I dont feel sad or miserable about it and usally find people at the park and I know they rather have a nice cooked meal then be out in the cold.
Im not strangers with people for long when they got no place to go.
After the cloths are dried I take them to ex hubbies place. Come back home and get the turkey and go back with his gifts.
They arent much just stuff from the dollar store and wrapped up real nice with shiny paper and bows. We just like un wraping and seeing our new things..
I been drinking strong tea since I got up so I can get these things done.
Im going to have to write one of those to do lists which I never do because usually the list is just filled with drudgery that I like puting off but cant today.
I wish you a wonderful Christmas!
Peace be with you this Christmas and always XoXo
Oh this song poped up in my head last night remembering it from my child hood. Its sweet like you.

Do you give xmas dinner to homeless people in the park? Wow I'm too stingy to do that. (I prefer to use the word shy but it amounts to the same thing.)
I'm having xmas lunch at Binky's mental health house tomorrow. In my post I made it sound like I don't want to go. I do, I just hate Christmas. Sorry to leave such a horrible message. I hope you have a wondrous day XxXxXxX ~ in the flava of Xmas pudding. Do you have that in America? It is a bit like moist Xmas cake without the icing, in the shape of a bowl, with either custard or vanilla ice cream yum yum XxXxXxX

Oh hello Beverly my dear. I just came by to leave a long comment only would you believe it! The cat has just stolen the side of fish I was frying for mine and my sister's tea right from the pan, the dog stole it off the cat and now the parrot is yelling "GIMME A FUCKING BIT!" at the top of its lungs. ALL with our parish priest in the next room reading selected items from your blog out loud to my deaf sister!
Wishing you a very merry Christmas, and please don't drink any more than me. We only have 13 bottles of scotch until Thursday between my sister and myself so I'm terrified of running out.
Hello Beverly Darling
So how was your Xmas day? Did you find anyone homeless in the park to share dinner with? I think that's incredibly kind of you. I would be too scared & shy ever to do that. Also I have bad experience: when I let my homeless heroin-addicted friend stay at my old house-share, which was very middle-class, quiet, respectable... the landlord went NUTS. & that was the beginning of the end for me, eventually I got chucked out of there... Nowadays I'm still not assertive enough to chuck a homeless person back on the street into the dark and cold when dinner was ended. Or when they stay the night... when does their stay end? You're lucky having or being able to make gentleman friends who will help you out. Nobody ever helps me out. At least, not in practical ways like that. Maybe that's a guy thing...
Anyway darling HOW WAS XMAS? Please drop by and sprinkle my blog with your luscious comments. As it is, it looks like nobody loves me at all... Not even Mother Crackpot has been. (Maybe the parrot got drunk and did a shit on the Xmas turkey. You know what Old Mother CP is like...)
Do get in touch soon Darlin'
I'm sending Xmas Kisses in all the flavours of a box of dark chocolates... hazelnut whirl, strawberry cream, coconut surprise, etc etc etc XxXxXxX

HAS THAT GLEDWOOD BEEN SPYING ON ME?! Or reading my most personal internet diaries? How did he know the parrot did a shit on the Christmas turkey. Right on the priest's portion, but he was too busy shoveling it into his mouth for me to say anything. He complimented me on my "delightful white sauce" and carried on munching, so it didn't really matter.
It was a quiet Christmas this year. Only my sister and the priest. Oh and Custard our dog, sitting in the highchair my son used to use back in the 40s, wearing a bow tie.
The parrot got bored while I was busy cooking and so ignoring him, so he pecked a leg off the dining table into match wood. The one technical hitch arose when this table leg gave way right during desert sending a tidle wave of turkey scraps, Christmas cakes, alcohol and table decorations right into the priest's lap. My sister nearly died laughing. I was really hoping she would actually die but she didn't. We got through three pairs of heavy duty sanitary support pants that day thanks to her heavy drinking and laughter. The Jehovah's Witnessing neighbors next door gave up banging on the wall shortly after 5pm and haven't banged since. The police didn't cause much trouble either. We just turned out the lights and pretended to be out, hoping the priest's drunken gigglings would be mistaken for a TV set someone had left on.
Really my dear I must go. The parrot has just pecked the cat-flap off and is fluttering back and forth banging my sister round the head with it every time he passes. Just another typical day.
And a very HAPPY NEW YEAR to you My Dear too!
Gledwood thank you for comming to see me.I still have a sink full of dishes to wash.I invited a guy & girl over.A young couple cheese out on Christmas day.We had a good time while the turkey was cooking.I turned the tv on since they where very quiet.Once the drinks started pouring we where all happy.No time limits on my side.They left in the morning and I had a little hangover.
Drinking loads of tea because I am so behind in cleaning.
Gravy covered kisses to you XoXo
No More Soggy Knickers
You can use those old supports o wrap delicate glass in or you can do origami with them.How about paper mache?I dont remember any more.
I dont need them.
I think Anna Grace might like them as a gift?
OOps in trouble now.
Old Mother Crack pOT I wish you where here with us for Christmas.You and your bird.
Your crazy and iressistable.I wish you a great new year.
That white sauce sounds good for you.
I always wonder how many drinks you had when I read your comments(◕◡◕)
You are fun and I wish we can spend a day together.To cute LOL
Oh hello my dear. I have just got back from the hospital where my sister is lying bandaged round the head, after Groobles our parrot swooped down too low clutching that pecked-off catflap in his feet and slammed her full in the face, sending her into next week. When she woke up she thought it WAS next week so the priest drove us to the ER. He has 3 DUIs already, so he has to be careful, but luckily we didn't get pulled over. Which was lucky. I think maybe he thought he was in England, for he was certainly swerving all over the wrong side of the road.
No dear, I haven't usually been drinking, at least not to excess, when I comment. Our 13 bottles of whiskey lasted right through boxing day, so neither my sister nor I can be confirmed alcoholics... (Can we?)
Oh dear I must go. That naughty parrot! He's picked up the tv remote and is now sitting on a light fitting squarking. With the porn channel going on top volume.
Take care my dear and have a marvelous New Year.
What a honey you are!:-)
That must be so cute that your birdie watches porno.What does he get out of it?
You like that channel?Are you married or single?
You never know whats going on in a birds headXoXo
