    Still have xmas shopping left to do for MrRiot as he's scuppered my plan for what to make for/get him and some for Riot ma too. I'm struggling to pack up MrRiot's flat as he's having to move next weekend and hasn't got much opportunity to do it himself (but he's got friends helping do all of the difficult packing, I'm just sorting clothes and bedding and getting rid of stuff right now). Got a follow up appointment day at hospital on Thursday and I need to finish my uni application and see if I can get than sent off as well. Oh and not tear off riot ma's head off this week too...already had a tiff over the phone and it's not even midday :(

    Roll on xmas!!

    Wow you're so busy. What a time for Mr Riot to be moving house. The Christtmas shopping may have to wait until the last shopping day.

    Limiting your interactions with Riot Ma will give her fewer opportunities to argue.

    Find some time to chill.

    That is a clever plan. Your busking may earn you a fortune for spending on Christmas when you're in London, the city where chocolate bourbons cost a billion pounds and everything else costs more.
