Wonky at Advent

Hello all!

Wonky warrior has managed to have the wonky house decorated in time for Christmas.

According to my youngest child- Barber Kissmouse liffs up the chimlee and brings the beebee cheeses. Not awfully reassuring for the Granddaughter of a church secretary! Theology of 3 year olds is somewhat limited ;-)

Meanwhile the tinsel, tree glittery cards and even my new and lovely nativity set has not sent the RA monster into hiding. He is lurking and currently gnawing my right wrist...OUCH!

Christmas TOTAL WIPEOUT for Wonky Warrior....


in at number 5- Getting a Christmas list together that doesn't include things that are medical like kettle tippers, new walking stick. Consider go faster stripes for my wheelchair necessary for the list and bung it on anyway...

number 4 has to be the Christmas Cards. We like to make ours here and so have enlisted the support of slaves, OOOPS children for making the cards. Still have to write the damn things though, and print off photos for those in far flung places. It takes ages and my hands get puffy!

number 3- easy! This one is working out the Christmas diary. This is where you have a marital dispute over when we have to see Uncle Farts Over dinner and tells inappropriate jokes and visit great Grandma so and so who forgets who we all are anyway! Added complication is that my middle one is away this yr so we need to see her. I have to have some time to recover in between journeys. This yr determined to do somethings that I ACTUALLY WANT TO DO.... Would like to go across countryside on a TRAMPER with the children...I wonder if you can hire them? HA! I can see the headlines now- mad mother terrorises the South Downs....!


Number 2- Has to be opening the advent calendar. How are swollen chunky finger that just wont go, open up those little doors anyhow? You poke at the perforations at one door and wiggle your hand hopefully in a hockus pockus action willing the door open. Perhaps saying OPEN SESAME in true British Panto style would assist..?

But no! You loose it, shake it and mutter dark thoughts at it and all the chocolate falls to the bottom of the damn packet and so there are now no chocolates behind any doors at all!

Number 1- Opening presents. It has to be the number 1! Waited all year for the glorious and long wished for bounty from your loving friends and family and YEP! You guessed it the knuckles have seized and you cant open a single one! More sticky tape on your parcels than you could shake a stick at and done up with tighter security than fort knox.

Hope you enjoyed my little list!

I wonder what your chief annoyances are about the RA at Christmas? IS it the wrapping up or is it the chilly reception in shops when you crash their displays with the powered chair?
