new year bits n bobs

K had gone out to the big street party in town with one of her friends on hogmanay...As it was being limited to 20,000 people getting entry they went down for the start at 8pm...At 10pm the were back here soaking wet and perishing cold...It had been chucking down with rain for the early bit :o( ...As her friend was staying over they got changed into their jimjams and joined the boys in their bedroom...So the 4 of them sat and played on the PS2 for hours...M has all the singing star games for the PS2...Basically it's karaoke game and you sing into these microphones plugged into the PS2...You get marked on your singing ROFL...Well at about 11:55 K asked could she phone her fella before the lines got busy so i said yes...They were on the phone until about 4am <bless>  Oh to be young and in love eh!!...The toerags got me to do the singing game...Am surprised we didn't have any breakages as i really can't sing...Poor Alice Cooper would have a heart attack as i totally and utterly murdered his song poison <ggg> The boys decided to go to bed at about 2:45am so K & her pal went back to K's room.

After K's friend got picked up to go back home on new years day we went round to my best mates in the afternoon for a while :o)  Me, K and Nat took her two wee ones out for a walk...We left my lads watching a video and her partner had just got up LOL...Came home and slobbed about doing not a lot...I cooked late as i had been ill at about 6am :o(  I wasn't drinking so wasn't that to blame...Most of what i had eaten they all had too so dunno what it was...We phoned and texted people and wished them a happy new year and just had a quiet evening.

Yesterday we got up late and i had a pile of washing to do for K going back to uni with...Wasn't impressed as she had quite a few things that needed hand washing grrrr...One of my friends came round about 8.30pm with the kids christmas pressies...I had so much fun NOT trying to make up M's one...Says on the box from age 8+  We really think it should have said 18+ LOL...It's a night sky projection kit...Well you have to prick out all the stars in the sky so the light can shine through...Really not suitable for an 8 year old...You make up the southern and northern hemispheres seperately...I have to make the northern one up today...OH JOY...Thought hmm the solar system mobile kit he got from his gran as pressie from the states is made by same people...Opened it up to have a look...Lovely you have to paint all the planets yourself before you then go construct the mobile to hang from roof...Think i prefer playing the Bullseye and Catchphrase dvd games he got for christmas <ggg> Was miffed with the catchphrase one because you don't get virtual prizes...You do on bullseye and who wants to be a millionaire pah!!!.

Today K is away back to uni :o(  Me and the boys were going to take her down but my cold is getting worse and worse...So on sunday we decided she would get a train instead...Also as i am still running the car with the spare tyre on i really don't want to do like a 300 mile round trip...We're going to go down on sat with the washing that isn't dry yet, the stuff she had no room for and her watch when we get it back on thurs...My ex BIL came round at lunchtime to say happy new year on his way back to fife...So guess who's bagged a lift <ggg> He has some uses LOL...Her fellas family were unhappy saying to him 'oh you don't like us as you're going back first day you can' LOL...I had said similar to K...But they are missing each other lots awwww...Am going to start taking down the decorations later as i want them down before tomorrow.

Tomorrow will be 19 years since my dad died :o(  I still miss him loads and i hate this time of year as such...The kids great gran died on the 1st jan last year and was buried on same day as my dad...She was a lovely lady and really the nicest out of my ex's family full stop...But we always have to be upbeat as my older sis birthday is 6th january and my youngest nephews birthday is 8th january...Got a pressie for my sis but have to go shopping for nephews...My little sis threw a wobbly when i asked her if he would like a wormery <ggg>  When she said no i said how about an ant farm...Got threatend with being disowned <ggg>  To be honest i may just get him vouchers even though he'll only be 8...Right am offski before i get down and despondant

Okies this is to stardust as i can't send them email...
The boys are actually my sons G & M....K is my daughter LOL....They were all in the boys bedroom playing on PS2 as i said in my journal entry....K's boyfriend lives down south of scotland, she met him at uni and was him she was on phone to till all hours of the morning at new year.....K has a different bedroom to her brothers....Stands to reason if the boys wanted to go to bed to sleep then her and her pal would have to stop playing on the PS2 and go to her bedroom instead.....Dunno how you seemed to get wrong end of the stick but thought better reply and explain

Could always blame that for terrible Alice Cooper on the PS2 ;o)
