19. Okay.
Its alright actually, we pigged out watched some 99, played a board game, had a little boogie and pulled crackers at midnight. Laura picked up the tradition of opening the back door to let the old year leave and opening the front to let the new one in. I always thought it was a cool one so we did that. It was crazy mild. I stood and smoked some nicotine out the front and watched patches of fireworks and listened to the bells it was lovely. Missed church bells on Christmas day, probably because I had to go back to bed because I had only just got to sleep when he came through. He's too old for Santa but I think it's important to carry on with some stuff, like waiting until he's asleep before filling the stocking and putting presents under the tree. Tricky with his holiday nocturnal behavior though.
We suggested going for a walk it was so not freezing last night but it got rejected. So we played his dungeons and dragons mixed with Pokemon and stuff he's had read game for a bit. Want to encourage his imagination but its difficult playing a game with someone whose making it up as they go along and your attempt to contribute tends to be shot down instantly. There's only so long we had handle all the battle talk anyway.
Doing that thing we always do now. Looking around the room and planning to do way more tomorrow than we can. Getting outside for a walk is high priority as well as tidying up our room, and of course the dishes from today. Very decent stew and mashed tatties. Don't think there is much of any left now that amount of times we have heard pot lids opening and closing. Instructed him to brush his teeth after finding him biting into the second of a bought fruit cake. Not a huge one but still that boy can eat.
So can we. But not particulary sensibly. Suffering a bit with feeling uncomfortably full and still feeling the same hours later. Craving salad. Did manage to get some clothes that actually fit us as we haven't bought much at all since we were a size 10 and are not currently a size 10. Forget how comfortable clothes can be and how nice it is to not be pulling clothes up and down to stretch over exposed areas. Need a new winter coat really it's getting pretty difficult to zip the current one up and we've had it for years. Its already ripped in an armpit after trying to get pabs of the floor going into nursery in Dundee, when we were heavier than when we bought it then to. Some nasty little fucker with a nasty sick mom had ruined his time their and he didn't want to go in anymore. Middle school is all about the uniform though and he's growing out of all his clothes to so think it will need to wait.
We do have cozy comfy jammies bottoms though and are so glad. Loving the fleece jumper for smoking in we picked up in a charity shop when looking fornjewels for the treasure chest.
Better remember and brush our own teeth too, and take our inhaler. Been rebelling against all that which is pointless because its only us that will suffer more because of it.
Brain is filling up with musts, shoulds and betters now that the big dates are past and that just makes our body sigh and long for support.
