There’s only 4 weeks until Christmas
And I’ve not even started my shop
No presents, no food, and no booze yet
I don’t even have any pop!
The town is all lit up and sparkling
Santa’s grotto has also arrived
The shops are blaring out music
The old Christmas favourites revived!
All the heart-warming adverts on TV
They are sure to bring a tear to the eye
But my festive spirit is lacking
And I’ve not even made a mince pie!
I really need to get started
There are so many things still to get
I will make more of an effort
But it’s still not December yet!
very well done! I Love it…….I don’t do tree and lights and stuff until the week of the 20th of December. As a child my parents did it on Christmas Eve!!!!!

My daughter has started nagging me to put mine up already, but I want to wait a bit longer! Oooh you had a long wait ’till Christmas Eve as a child, but how magical when it came, decorating the tree and putting the decs up.

I haven’t started my shopping yet either. I do have booze, but I doubt that will last until Christmas.

Ha Ha! I think I might need a bit of booze to get me through the festive preparations!

Hello, and thanks for stopping by. I am Judy, in my (very) early fifties and decided that life definitely gets more interesting as it goes on! I am a wife and a mum and have just finished University as a Registered Nurse, after having worked as an Associate Practitioner in the NHS. I am also a poet and the author of my debut book, 'Rhymes of the Times.' I love to laugh, and I love rhyming words too, so I joined the two together, and my book was born. I am currently working on another book in the series also. I am a prolific blogger and enjoy writing funny stories, anecdotes, and anything really that takes my fancy.
