I haven't done a '5' for a week or so so given its the festive season,what are your 5 favorite things about Christmas? The food(roast chicken,baked potatoes,choc dipped strawberries...hmmm) Ripping my parcels open(yep,still a kid at heart  ) Knowing my aunty will send me my christmas gift at my birthday(3 months later) Sleeping in(although this year I am minding my neighbours cats so I'm betting they'll be meowing at my window early!) Leisurely walking off all my lunch calories on a nice summers evening(providing it doesn't typically rain!)  |

It's mainly another day for me, really. But... 1) Working 2 hours a day and getting paid for eight, since it's the slow season in my business. 2) Christmas parties for gigs, a little extra income to spoil myself or someone else. 3) Egg Nog, a favorite cheat drink of mine. I love it, but why it's only a holiday thing is beyond me. 4) Christmas lights, I do think when done well they're beautiful. 5) Seeing a hot girl in Christmas lingerie ads!!!  |
