Monday me and Miss Lister wandered the streets of Wolverhampton doing a lot less shopping than you might think, but falling IN LOVE with a BEAUTIFUL jacket in Passage (the mad 70&#8217;s shop in town) which once christmas is out the way I may very well go back to purchase and finding a christmas card that was as big as Catherine is!!<\/p>\n<p>Tuesday was again spent in Wolverhampton but this time with Mr Clarke and lil J. After consuming copious amounts of Vanila Lattes again and destroying some toy shops&#8230;.Jordan kicking a toy into a lego\/playmobile display (ooops) and me setting (or at least trying to set) off all the singing teddies&#8230;.and me singing random songs while trailing around shops it was time for dinner, Having Jordan in tow I wanted to avoid the high street with the grease in a box fast food outlets but was unsure where to go so James had the BRILLIANT idea of Pizza Hut&#8230;I never remember there is a Pizza Hut in town as I usually go to the one on Bentley Bridge!! So we all went consumed MUCH Pizza and garlic bread, spilt pop on the table (and James) and rubbed ice-cream into Jordans face!! Another really plesant day!<\/p>\n<p>Today with a rather impromtu day off I was unsure what I was going to do with myself especially as Jordan was up half the night coughing and spluttering as the cold he&#8217;s had for what seems like most the winter has finally settled onto his chest, but the answer was on hand in the form of Al who had the brainwave of meeting me in town to swop christmas pressies so we didn&#8217;t have to do it in work!! So it was off into Wolverhampton AGAIN for a day of coffee, mince pies and PRESSIES!!! WOOO!! Took Jordan with me again and had ANOTHER lovely day.<\/p>\n<p>ALTHOUGH I am totally backwards and instead of finishing my christmas shopping Monday when there was just me and Catherine, I dragged Jordan with me today!! However, It wasn&#8217;t THAT bad. He was really REALLY well behaved so father christmas will definitly be visiting this year&#8230;.and next beens as he&#8217;s coming to our house New Years Day too (I&#8217;ve postponed my christmas by a week so I can celebrate with Jordan when he&#8217;s back from his Dads!!)<\/p>\n<p>Now I&#8217;m back at my mothers relaxing while Jordan creates holy hell in the kitchen with my mom cooking biscuits, sausage rolls and jam tarts more flour on the floor\/ceiling\/work surface than in the bowl but he&#8217;s enjoying himself&#8230;.think he&#8217;ll need a bath when we get home!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Twas 4 days before christmas and all through my house&#8230;. &#8230;.IS BLOODY GLITTER, STICKY TAPE AND RIBBON!!!!
