The 16th & 17th; Today has been really pretty great.
The 16th of December. I had to have another Zopiclone night because my brain was too excited about Lauren and Grazia today!
So obviously the first thing I did this morning was to go round the corner and buy all the Grazia! Well, we bought three. Had to leave some behind for other people to buy! Mommy read it and had a tiny cry so I smushed her and pretended to be a penguin.
Lauren came round at half twelve for pizza and The Grinch! We put her vegan pizzas in the oven and I ordered Domino's and it was delicious. I gave her her scarf and it swamps her but that is what she wanted so that's good! Her mum had bought me a Hotel Chocolat Christmas Sleekster box, and Lauren had made me gingerbread so I'm definitely going to be starting on the winter bulking! All the foods.
When Mommy came home from Grandma's, we went through the photos Grazia sent so I'll post my favourites at some point. Then it was time for her to go! We had lots of hugs and it was so good to see her, my lil sis.
The 17th of December.
Today has been really pretty great. Christmas music in the car on the way to the QE which is always a good way to start the day. Then some twitter magic happened in that someone my my mum was friends with at school and still sends Christmas cards to had a daughter who went to school with Josie Long and in short, she's going to come to my house to do a private gig in February! I was sat in photopheresis, grinning insanely. People are great.
This afternoon I have been wrapping all of the things! Well, I wrapped Mommy and Daddy's presents. It took the entirety of The Polar Express and a little bit longer. I love that film -it is one of my few good memories of ward 8. I stopped at about half past five, by which time my ankles and feet were really swollen from the amlodipine and extra fluid you get given back during photopheresis.
Tonight I went to Miller & Carter with Becky for festive food and joy. There was only one problem - none of my shoes fit me because my feet were so enormous. I wore Mommy's size 8 boots when I'm normally a 6/7. The skin is so stretched, it's so painful. Anyway! The food was super tasty and we were defeated - couldn't even finish our main courses!
When we got back, Hamilton decided to be a gladiator! I filmed him and added the Gladiators theme tune. It's probably one of my greatest achievements.
