Christmas time medicine and no wine,
Slowly,slowly losing my mind.

🎄🎄🎄

With wrapping paper here there and everywhere,
bags and boxes upon almost every chair.

🎁🎁🎁

The house I confess is a Christmas mess, I’m trying not to let it add to my stress.
With baubles and lights hanging everywhere, does anyone know what day it is? Do they even care?!

🌟💫🌟

Christmas time,it’s really fine. I just thought I’d try and be witty with my little ditty ,
Just for fun, before this year is done, and we welcome in another one.

🎁🎄🌟

Just like that..

As I stood here in the rain, I could hear your voice saying ‘ get yourself indoors babe,you’ll freeze, I mean you’re not exactly dressed for this weather are you?!’
What I wouldn’t give to hear your voice or see your face today and everyday.

Thank you for leaving us with the most amazing memories we could ever wish for.
If I’m half the parent to my two as you were to us~I’ll be very proud.
Happy Heavenly Fathers Day to the very best. I miss you and love you more than I can put it into words.
‘Cheers Dad’.
All my love,all my life.🩵x
