Hello and welcome to the home of Word of the Week. A nice and simple weekly linky, with everyone welcome to pop by and share. The idea of the linky is to reflect back on your past week and share it with us. It’s great if you can sum it up in a word or phrase, hence giving us your Word of the Week. My word this week is ‘Merry Christmas’ and you can read more about that below.
PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING IF YOU WISH TO LINK UP! FROM NOW ON, THOSE NOT FOLLOWING THE RULES WILL BE DELETED. ARRRRGGGHHH! READ THE RULES….this is not a cooking or baking link up!! I’ll leave them up for now because, well it’s Christmas.
I’m not totally strict on using just a word or phrase. But please try to stick to the theme of summing up your week. There are not too many rules with this linky, just remember to read at least another couple of posts in the link up after adding your link. And please only add one post to the link up each week, multiple posts will be deleted. I will read and comment on all posts and tweet them out for you. I also have a Pinterest board devoted to Word of the Week. Please add the badge below to your post so that others may find us and join in. If you comment or tweet then please use the hashtag #WotW
Word of the Week is open from 6am on Friday Morning to 12 noon on Monday. Plenty of time to join in!
If you are unfamiliar with the Word of the Week linky then please feel free to ask any questions. New linkers are always welcome, we love to hear what you have been up to in the past week.
MY WORD OF THE WEEK – Merry Christmas
Well, it’s Christmas Eve, Eve, Eve so the perfect time to wish you Merry Christmas. Are you ready for the big day?
I’m in a bit of a panic right now. I don’t feel ready at all. I usually get stressed that I haven’t done enough by this time of the year, and with just four days to go I actually really know that I’ve not done enough. I’m consoling myself with the thought that it’s just one day, right?
I haven’t done my Christmas food shop, I’ve booked the turkey to be picked up at a time I have no-one to pick it up for me. I haven’t bought nearly enough presents or sent any cards. Even the plans of Graham spending time with us has been mixed up. For some reason he thought he was staying two nights when I thought it we agreed on one.
I’ve way too many other things going on to sit back and relax. I’m not sleeping. I’m not functioning. I’m in so much pain and trying to ignore it.
But it’s Christmas, and it will all come together in the end, right?
Now it’s over to you, what word or phrase sums up your week this week?
Merry Christmas to you too! I also always think… it’s just one day. If you can get a neighbour to collect your turkey and other supermarket stuff for you that would be an idea. I know that at this time of the year people seem a little kinder. I wish I could get a taxi to you! Sending hugs and prayers and best wishes for a quiet, stressfree period. Your kids know that you are doing all that you can. Thanks for allowing us to share each week too.
Merry Christmas Anne. Sorry that you’re in a lot of pain and struggling to function, and not feeling ready at all. I’m sure things will come together for you and, as you say, it is just one day. Wishing you and your family all the best for the festive period. Hope you find some time to rest and are able to enjoy some of the festive period x #WotW
Merry Christmas to you and your family.
I am sure you will get everything sorted in time for Christmas. You are right, it’s just one day! x
Merry Christmas to you and your family. I am sure everything will be okay, these things normally work out. It is just one day. I hope you’ve stopped ignoring your pain and taken something for it. I hope that now since it’s Christmas Eve you can relax.
