Hope you've all had a great Christmas and are still enjoying your holidays ~ I'm picking up The Boy later this afternoon and we'll have a mini-Christmas thing this evening before he goes home again tomorrow. I've not opened any presents from under the tree yet, so will save them for this evening and open them when he gets here :)

Spent yesterday afternoon/evening with Ella and Mark and had a great laugh playing with Mark's bow and arrow in the garden.  I'm not a great shot (hey, it was my first time) but I sure can send a lot of brick dust flying when I hit the house, though I did eventually hit the target too  ;)  As Mark got a new bow and arrow for Christmas I think it's likely Ella and I will be nicking the old one and scouting for safe suitable locations to play with it :) We also discovered where they spent the millions of pounds making Robin Hood, as up till now it's been a mystery to us how they even spent £5 on making it ........ it was clearly for bow & arrow lessons and teaching Marion how to cartwheel continuously as neither thing are as easy as they look. Trust me, they're not.

I've been completely distracted this morning by more fics posted by wispykitty so have just spent the last hour or more reading and posting FB ... which is something I'm pretty slack at when it comes to her stuff, for which I am thoroughly apologetic, especially as I ♥ the way she writes Schweinski  :)   I'm clearing out my HD too and burning loads of stuff ~ der_schnix, your CD's will be in the post tomorrow hopefully.

Hope you all got amazing presents and are enjoying the holidays  :)

*hugs*


Oh, and does anyone know where to get the top in this icon as I can't find it on the Adidas website.

I took archery lessons as one of my PhysEd classes at college. Wasn't very good at it... I found out later why I wasn't, but I had fun. Turns out that I am right-handed, left eye dominate and when you shoot anything, a bow, gun, etc, this combination does not lend itself to great accuracy. :D lol And it's one reason I can't play tennis.

I would be having a better holiday if I were still on holiday but I'm at work. Wasting time. Obviously. :)

Glad you're having a nice Boxing Day. Greetings to The Boy.

{hugs}

Well I think we'll stick with the bow and arrow lark whilst it amuses us! :D Ella thinks it's too cold for tennis, but she's a wuss ;)

Sorry to hear you're back at work already ... I was planning to go in tomorrow, but I really can't be bothered. So I probably won't :)

*hugs*

Oooo. I forgot to tell you. My bow was a Darton compound and my arrows were pink shafts with pink fletching.

So girly girl. :D

LOL! :D

Ah, can you give me the links to those Schweinski fics? I'd love to read some good fic.

[the-muppet.livejournal.com]

These were just 5 things ones I read recently:

5 Things Bastian Does That Drive Lukas Absolutely Insane

A few 5 things collections .... ~ I loved these :)

Also, there's Rebuilding Lukas which is now up to Chapter 26 (this link is for Chapter One)

And here's a Snuglies one in case you want to read that too.

All these are from manndecker which I think you belong to though, right, so maybe you've seen them before?

[taelonmahal.livejournal.com]

I bookmakred them all! Thank you. :D

[the-muppet.livejournal.com]

Here's another collection of "five things" that just got posted, and which includes some Schweinski and Grand OTP :)

[taelonmahal.livejournal.com]

Thank you! I bookmarked it. :D

[the-muppet.livejournal.com]

I don't know whether you'll like any of them, or if you've seen them all before as you belong to the same comms, but I hope they help :)

I poked you on Skype the other day ... you weren't there :P

[taelonmahal.livejournal.com]

I'm a member, but I don't have them friended and don't look at them too often to be honest. So thanks for pointing the fic out to me! :)

I'm online right now and I think I will stay for a while. So, poke me again if you want to!

Bow and arrow IS hard, but fun too!! Just not when you get it stuck in a tree and spend 30 minutes, two chisels& hammers trying to get it back out;)

[the-muppet.livejournal.com]

I've not done that yet :)

[vita-candeo.livejournal.com]

DON'T!

Archery? I LOVE archery and used to be quite good at it (back in the Dark Ages of high school). I shudder to think what kind of damage I could cause now, though. You go, girl...just no hunting Bambi, OK? ;)

I guess I made Santa's naughty list again, as there were no presents under the tree, but I've heard that "boy" is bringing something back from Oklahoma that is "picture worthy", so expect silliness on my LJ soon. Christmas day was better than expected, which has to count for something!

I hope you and The Boy enjoy(ed) your evening together and had a nice Boxing Day!!!
