Good back, baking, reading, Behemoth, Strongest Man, Sabrina, Four In A Bed, Dragon Tattoo (part 2)

Had a good sleep last night and woke with my back feeling much more flexible. Got up and set about making Toni's gluten free keto rolls.

I carried on my reading and finished the Lords Of Chaos book while listening to Behemoth.

Not sure why I find this compelling viewing but I did enjoy watching World's Strongest Man 2020 and the final was impressive. 

Although it has now been cancelled Netflix have released Part 4 (the final arc) of the Chilling Adventures Of Sabrina series so we started working our way through that,

It's pure bubblegum Satanism/pagan/witchraft pap but strangely enjoyable at the same time. By the end of the first episode we realised why they were cancelling it and that it wasn't actually that enjoyable after all LOL.

Slightly disillusioned with Sabrina we went back into car crash TV mode with Four In A Bed.

I made a roast beed dinner for us all (makes a change from my usual chicken eh LOL) and we watched the second part of The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo. Sam has really enjoyed this as he hadn't seen it before and it's been so long since we watched it last that we've forgotten most of it too.

Back report, reading, World's Strongest Man and some Mission(s) Impossible

Back report: still improving but not yet 100& getting there though.

I am thoroughly enjoying being off of work and not being disturbed or checking in. 

Did some more reading, watched some more episodes of World's Strongest Man and enjoyed not having to worry about work.

We went into Tom Cruise mode this evening and started on the Mission Impossible films.

Mission Impossible

Mission Impossible II

Mission Impossible III

These films are delightfully silly and far fetched which I guess is the whole point. Bravo for the sublimely ridiculous!

Destination fucked, baking, ION gifts, Love Actually and The Nightmare Before Christmas

Well it's not quite the Ozzie Man style disaster but 'Destination Fucked' is what I feel about my back right now. Last night was not great. I did manage to get some sleep but there were times when a slight movement would cause sharp shooting pains across the base of my back. Moving or turning at all was a challenge although I did find ways to do this albeit very slowly. I feel very tender and fragile this morning which is most inconvenient as there are things I want/need to do.

I got up (ver carefully) and got my baking groove on to make sure that Toni had enough rolls to take her through to next week. 

For a bit of silliness I started watching World's Strongest Man 2020. Who doesn't enjoy a bunch of large men manhandling impossibly heave objects? Right now I would struggle to bend and lift a feather!

I received an unexpected parcel in the post today which turned out to be a Christmas gift pack from my company. Some nice little bits in there.

Various chocolates and nuts, some nice coffee hot chocolate and some interesting olives 

There was a also a nice branded thermal cup too

Christmas viewing was resumed with Love Actually.

We also took in A Charlie Brown Christmas courtesy of Apple TV+

Christmas movie viewing continued with The Nightmare Before Christmas.

Our Foodmas prep was underway as Toni cooked off the ham tonight. The smell was amazing! Is it tomorrow yet LOL.

We finished off the night with Willow which we haven't watched for ages
