6!! One more than 5!

Well what a weekend. Started Friday morning, I'm in the shower, which is where I do my best thinking, planning and plotting!! M1 runs in and yells "your phone's ringing" so I answer " well answer it". So M1 returns a few moments later to tell me "Dad wants you to ring him on the mobile". So I ring him right away, only to discover he has had a car accident. He is so sexy a young p plater wanted to be in his space. The poor kid didn't see him and changed lanes, damaging the drivers side and pushing hubby into the gutter. Hubby said there was a telegraph pole fast approaching also wanting to be in his space, but that was avoided. Hubby came home to change cars because his one didn't want to play anymore that day and wasn't steering in the appropriate manner. So as you can imagine that just changed the day 360 deg. Well not to blow my own horn, but the car was down at the smash repairers with the claim lodged by 11am. Of course the assessor can't get there until Tuesday, so despite my best efforts the car most likely won't be repaired until after Christmas. What a pain, one car and now we're doing the shuffle and postpone dance. The smash repairer did say they may get the mechanical stuff done before Xmas so we may have the car over the holidays, cross everything you have for me.
Saturday not to bad, did some shopping at Macarthur Square so not stressing quiet so much. Does anyone know where to get cheap one way tickets for my mother in law?
Every year its the best fun finding something just stupid enough for my sister and brother. I found it on Saturday. Can't wait to see them open it. Found a great pressie for the hubby, can't tell you he is reading this now. Saturday night was not fun, hubby woke up at some ungodly hour and had a chat to God. If he had been drinking it would have been expected but he was sober. Anyway being the great, wonderful wife that I am I let him sleep in after getting up to him during the night. So When he still hadn't surfaced by 10.30am Sunday I texted his brothers to let them know he wouldn't be attending the boys lunch today. Hubby got up 15 min later and said he would go but not drink? Well I told him you better let them know because I already declined for you on the grounds of health. Anyway off they went a midday and hubby rocked in at 6pm. He was amused at his brothers, they were worse for wear, while he only had coke.
(is that any better for your after a night on the vom wagon than beer?) anyway he had a small win with his brothers on the horses, so its not all bad.

Anyway finally got the Christmas tree up tonight. J2 Was having a great time, tinsel around him like a feather boa yelling "I'm sexy" and then a tinsel roll on his head yelling " I the queen". What can you do? The cat took about 10 min to go up the tree as the picture attached shows. Well the chaos starts now.
Trying to get ready for the week ahead, only 4 more days at school. Yeah Yeah Yeah.
