I am not sure about you, but these past few weeks have just been so busy and have flown by. I know this week is going to be just the same. Which is why I am starting the week with my Ramblings Of A StressedMum – 18/12/2023. This could also be my last Ramblings post of 2023.

A Week To Go

This time next week will be Christmas Day. Santa would have visited and we will be enjoying Christmas with the ones we love. Eating too much and looking forward to our Christmas dinner.
I still have one present to get, presents to wrap and trying to sort my time and days for when I can get to see friends and family over the Christmas period.
Something New

In my last Ramblings post, I mentioned an idea I have been having for something new for 2024. I want to say thank you to the ideas you have been sending through. Please keep them coming, as I am reading and thinking about all the suggestions.
Happy Christmas

I am sure this will not be my last post before Christmas. As I have so much to do, and so many places to visit this week. I want to take this opportunity to wish you all a very happy Christmas,
I really appreciate all your comments and support, emails and messages, they really do mean so much to me. I hope you all have a great Christmas with lots of laughter and memories x


Feels like a life time ago already! Hope you had a good Christmas
It does seem so long ago, had a lovely Christmas thank you hope yours was a good one
Blink and its gone – this year I plan to be more present and experience every moment
Same here, have been saying the same and making plans with my husbdand and family
I feel like Christmas always sneaks up on me, and suddenly I am stressed and wrapping gifts in the living room, hoping to have enough wrapping paper. I am excited to see what you end up doing next year – and do try to relax!
It has come around quickly, I have just finished wrapping I think sso aa lot of pressure is now off
The past few weeks have really flown by. I hope you have a wonderful Christmas and happy New year.
It has flown by, I do feel now that I am on top of everything now and finally finished the wrapping
I can’t believe Christmas is here. We have few more things left to do. Wish a merry Christmas in advance.

December has flown by and I am looking forward to stopping work and relaxing before the New Year.

It’s heartwarming to read about your plans for Christmas, and I hope you find some moments of peace and joy amidst the holiday chaos.
Thahk you it is all starting to work out ok now thankfully :). I hope you have a lovely Christmas
Glad to hear that most of the shopping has been done. I like to be organised too as I hate the last minute scrabble for gifts. It’s too stressful. Have fun wrapping, hope that most are done by now. Have a wonderful Christmas xxxx
I have one more gift being delivered today, still loads of wrapping to do which will be done today or tomorrow when C agrees to help me. Hope you are all wrapped up and have a great Christmas xx
It’s crazy how quickly Christmas has come around!! I have so much left to do still…I wish you and yours a beautiful and blessed Christmas season!
There always seems to be so much to do, I hope you have a lovely Christmas x
Your post captures the festive excitement perfectly! The countdown to Christmas Day is always filled with last-minute tasks, but it’s all part of the joy and anticipation. Wishing you a wonderful holiday season filled with love, laughter, and delicious Christmas dinners. Here’s to making cherished memories with friends and family!
Thank you, I hope you have a lovely Christmas
I have no idea how it’s almost Christmas, time goes way too quickly. Hope you have a lovely festive period with the family x
I know it has come around far too quickly, I am now trying to juggle visiting family before Christmas
I’m happy to hear that you only have one left gifts needed. I am still not yet on half of my list. Always looking forward to your post.
I think I have finally finished, just need to wrap which I keep putting off. I hope you manage to get all your gifts
I really hope that you all have a lovely Christmas and that you also manage to get a break too. It is so busy at the moment!
Thank you and same to you, I am hoping to stop working on Friday and restart after New Year
Happy Christmas. Surely a busy shopping time for you to make all the festive arrangements.
Happy Christmas, it is busy but hopefully can just relax as well
i can’t believe christmas is next week. I still have a few things to do too, it will be very busy these next days.
I know, I am trying to work out seeing people, last minute bits etc
I hope you have a very merry Christmas and holiday season! Try not to get too overwhelmed!
It is busy, I am always glad when Christmas Eve evening is here as it is too late then
