    :grouphug: I know how you feel, my boss is right pain in the neck too, im always early for work (the first there) and do as much as I possibly can in a day, but nothing is ever good enough. I was about to serve a customer today when she told me she had a bone to pick with me, but then decided she'd tell me off later - leaving me a bit jumpy all afternoon. This is on top of saying to her boss that the reason we were tired today is because we actually did a hard days work yesterday. (im thinking !!!!!! - we are so many staff short that working there is a living nightmare and If I get one more stroppy !!!!!! in the bank that complains when its their fault I might just take the letter opener to my own goddam neck!)

    Why are women bosses such cows?? :confused: Honestly, If I was a manager I wouldnt dare treat the staff like that!! :mad:
    I know what you mean - I don't want to do female bosses a disservice cos if i was God and I took all the rubbish female bosses i've ever had into account, i'd decree that women should never be bosses - but then i'd never get to be one, and the course of feminism would be set back several decades :rolleyes:

    Sorry to hear you're having a tough time too :grouphug:

    Morning!

    Today is going to be a long day at work, ive got to go to this meeting thing so i probably wont be back home until around 10ish. At least they are putting on some food and im getting paid for it! Im leaving a message for the boyf to pick me up as I dont fancy having a few drinks after.

    Last night I was really lazy and sat on my behind watching TV, so Ive decided to do the cleaning tomorrow night ready for the weekend so I can spend sunday doing some batch cooking and hopefully put the tree up. :xmastree: Im very excited!

    Anyhoo, its frozen outside here today, so i need to put on some extra layers and get ready, I dont fancy missing the bus today!

    Morning All,

    Had a FAB time at my xmas meal last night. It was at a really posh hotel and we had just the best time. I certainly got my moneys worth with the free drinks too and my head feels clear this morning so it must be all that extra weight I'm carrying has made it easier to drink.

    DH has the day off today so he is minding the girls while I take DS (2) xmas shopping at lakeside. Have to post the bits for NZ and buy for MIL and DH.

    Cant face putting up the tree yet as I know DD3 (1) will pull it to bits at the first opportunity :rolleyes:

    Off to make some toast now,

    Chat later,

    Al.

    Not a bad night for me :j Whole body hurting this morning though but never mind.

    Dont have enough washing for a load. DW has been emptied by OH. Downstairs pretty much done and toilet cleaned. Beds need to be made as they are airing ATM.

    Just had breakfast of Bacon, scrambled eggs, beans and toast. Lunch will probably be fish/mash/peas and dinner maybe lamb chops, but not fully sure yet.

    Will catch up later.

    Morning Jo et al.

    Really peaceful and quiet in the office this morning, all the lights are out except the one over my desk and the coffee vending machine. I love the fact that there is no one here and i can hear myself think for a change.

    Nothing much to report these last few days. Got all the bumpf from the registery office about our ceremony and the words just seem so beautiful i keep filling up. Im so soppy. We have picked our ceremony music, well, 2 songs but we dont know in which order to play them, possibly : Bette Midler - wind beneath my wings for me entering with my dad and Green Day - Time of your life as we leave, selected sections from each song too. In particular i want the "did you ever know that your my hero, your everything i wish i could be" as i walk up to OH.

    Gotta trawl the shops at lunch time to find a knock out christmas party top for the words 'do. Has to show plenty of cleavage, i want to get lots of cheap drinks cuz the party venue is expensive :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    Will report back later, im off to enjoy the silence of the building.

    CQ - Why has Tesco cancelled your order???


    Would you believe their van had broken down YET AGAIN!!!! :rolleyes:


    Finally got it in the end though, after many tears of frustration down the phone, but it arrived far too late for me to cook the special dinner I'd planned for me and DS, so hopefully we'll have it tonight instead!

    Morning everyone :snow_grin
    hope you all have a good today.
    My blinking breadmaker has conked out, :mad: :mad: :mad: I've only had it a few months, it was 2nd hand. But it has hit me hard as I just don't have any spare cash at the momment :mad:

    so not sure what to do, have already had my xmas pressies bought for me and 90% of them are already for the house. agggghhhhhhhh :mad: so annoyed.

    ant way sorry to moan.
    must go and finish the washing, change the sheets, put on w/m and t/d plus a few other bits and bobs, If I can get this place tidy enough might put up the xmas tree this afternoon. Although that means moving the pc from it current location.

    Hugs to all

    I'm having a Bucks Fizz for brekkie to start the day :D

    Cheers :beer:

    That's my girl :rotfl: Save one for me though.

    I've suddenly realised that I can't remember what I've bought DS2 for Xmas - well, apart from the main pressies. I have put the radiator on the the spare bedroom cos I can see me spending this afternoon in there, sorting through the cupboards, wrapping and writing lists. Next Monday mornign will be the only time without kids to get the last bits and pieces. Help - where has this month gone. From being super organised, it's all going down the pan at an alarmingly increasing rate _pale_ So, CQ, crack open another bottle, maybe that'll help :snow_laug

    Other than that, I'll give the floors a bit of a vac, may even run the mop over the kitchen floor (steady, girl :D) and must make a starton some window cleaning. Kitchen actually needs a really good do, so may make a start on that too.

    Brekkie - porridge and prunes
    Dinner - soup and toast
    Tea - haven't thought that far ahead yet. Possibly spag bol as it's just about the only thing DS2 will eat :(

    Off for a surf while I finish my porridge, then quick shower and i'm on with the day.

    Have a good 'un. :xmastree:
