Christmas is coming

[nomad97]

Got all my jobs done today, including setting up the Christmas tree. That should surprise the girls. Its all ready for the girls to decorate later this evening after they return from the village.

I haven't heard if ours will be erected and decorated this year. If it's up to me I won't bother.

This was it in 2016.

We haven't set up the tree in 8 years, but maybe this year ..??
This was 2010:

My kids will return home form Bangkok for Christmas and New year. The tree can go up then -as usual - just a few days before Christmas.

5th Dec...ridiculously early!

I didn't know it was fathers day, my daughter was over this afternoon, she didn't say happy fathers day, but I did get a big hug before she left with half of what was in the refridgerator.

I don't know whether to laugh with or to cry for you.

I got a couple of nice "Happy Father's Day" messages from my daughter, who is away finishing her final year at Ubon University. I think she wants something...

I’m still waiting on the DNA results. Bloody Christmas post ...

I was 'allowed' to take the four of us out to dinner tonight to celebrate Fathers Day. Just as I'm allowed a gift on birthdays and Christmas paid for out of my wallet... Such generosity is heartwarming.

I know the feeling well although I am told I spend too much on myself. WTF!

That’s not a proper tree, it doesn’t have a fairy.

The star, I believe, is more of an American concept.

And, if you don't mind, I don't want a fairy on the top of my tree. LOL

The girls have got 50,000 cuddly toys



but no fairies. This is the closest I can find ....................

A very Darwin Christmas tree.
