THE TREES ARE UP

Its my Mothers birthday today bless her if she was still alive she be getting all giddy about Christmas ,I guess loads of people will be missing loved ones at this time of year and for some i know that Christmas is harder than any normal day , i love Christmas and will always do , but as always  its better done with money but if money is lacking its good to know  we can still have nice cooked good food  , desserts and drinks and like everything its as cheap or dear as you want to make it , our first Christmas Helen and i shared , we didn't even have a tree and it was only a few days before that we were staying in a hotel together we was waiting until we got the keys for our new  apartment , but yesterday  we put both of our trees up , we dragged the decorations out of the garage and we now have a tree in the kitchen dinner with coloured lights and the larger  one of the two is in the living room with clear lights on.  We have two reindeer's for the garden at the back of the house and a string of new clear  lights for our fir tree at the front of the house , we no advent calenders which i should have bought as its any excuse for chocolate.also i have downloaded the latest Christmas album and its  no different to any previous album that has been released its a true  ghost from Christmas past as  their is no new Christmas records that have been released or charted in the last few years  that are any good so there is never no better albums released than there was ten years ago.

Above is Whitcoulls apartment store and its giant Santa  my daughters new apartment is smack  in the city and is on the left of this photo , she has promised to update her blog and Facebook with pictures of her new pad and its interior  , she has told me its the best rental place that  she as stayed in so far and its fully furnished , i am happy to know she is settled once more .

Helen is buying me a new Pioneer stereo for the car it has a usb slot and i can connect my i-phone to it as well the first year we were together she bought me a Tom Tom sat nav and it turned out to be one of the best presents i have ever received it has saved me money bye getting me to where i want to go tells me where all the petrol stations are so i don't run out of gas , where all the speed cameras are so i don't get fined for speeding and where all the Starbucks are located on route  for a caffeine fix specially on long journeys , no doubt the stereo will be just as useful.

Watching -  Twilight breaking dawn part one

Wishing - I could say happy birthday to my mum f2f
