@tanjaostman we generally just get either cold or colderrain...... ๐Ÿ˜‚ in the summer we sometimes even get warm rain ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚

Communist China. Living inside is often difficult. Guards everywhere. Cameras everywhere. People watching your internet. Canโ€™t do this. Canโ€™t say that.

Well something just happened to someone in the family. She posted a scripture on Chinaโ€™s equivalent to Twitter. (She posts bible quotes from this app often) And the GOV somehow STOPPED AND BLOCKED it from progressing further than her own PHONE!
No one else can see it!
And we have seen the exact same post on others posts on that same day. The exact picture. So why hers? Itโ€™s creepy.

When things like this hit close to home, it feels surreal! ๐Ÿฅบ๐Ÿฅบ๐Ÿฅบ๐Ÿฅบ๐Ÿฅบ๐Ÿฅบ๐Ÿฅบ

@tymektt can't beat fresh air at night!!

Our winter currently consists of damp air that sometimes becomes rain

I do so love our joy bringing little Peter.

Creativity is through the roof.

When we told him we had no money for Christmas this year, so wouldn't be buying presents, he took it with a smilez and the challenge was set

Then he went about and created his own range of Christmas presents for us.

An R2D2 pencil pot (for Steven), a spaceship (mine), Ewok (Jo's) and BB-8 coasters (Nathan's)

He's been stock piling old hot chocolate tins...and put them to good use

Peeling is occurring in the kitchen

So I'm drinking a cup of tea while the rest of my lovely family sort that part, since I can't do that bit

We've got a slow cooked lemon and herb chicken in the slow cooker (I did that), a [heavily reduced] joint of beef being seasoned and put in the oven too (so glad we forgot to take any food out for yesterday evening, cos we loads, and loads, of ace bargains at our local corner shop from their reduced section, which we helped clear a bit ;-) )

@bethany Merry Christmas to you in the North from the Berrybunch

Merry Christmas my lovely DingDash family

We started with bacon and scrambled egg, and opened the crackers - which Jo made from scratch since we couldn't get any.

She found the jokes online - apologies in advance. They say much of our collective humour I guess...so sorry in advance

Also, some riddles :-)

Have a fab day. Currently midday here in the UK

Andy, Jo, Steven, Nathan and Peter

(The ring photo is because me and the 3 boys saved up from May 2020 to our 25th Anniversary in November 2021 to replace Jo's engagement ring, to buy food, which we had to sell, back along - when we were both without work: I wanted a new photo for my phone home screen)

@Pablito @Olamide I will. It's a dream, but a distant one

We don't get much snow now either where we live...we cold rain, but that's about as close as we get lol

@katharos my family aren't big fans of black and white ๐Ÿคฃ

@Pablito @Olamide thanks... not much snow though in Texas I guess...

Would love to visit the US one day, though, and Texas would definitely be on my list!!

@katharos we even get to choose colour or black and white............this year I lost the vote, and we watched in colour

First time the little kids are watching โ€œitโ€™s a wonderful lifeโ€ โ™ฅ๏ธ๐ŸŽ„โ™ฅ๏ธ
