i am taxi honest...the funny thing is ihavnt heard from her since monday ...and it has been really good not to have to worry about her ...
i have got a friend coming over this weekend ..to help clear my bottom half of my house out ...another friend is moving in when she returns from her travels in 6 weeks time ...and i have so much stuff it's disgusting how much i hoard ...now i have a friend that is extremelly neat ...she chucks everything out ...has three kids and you wouldnt know it ...
me personally i had one kid and while he was young he took over the house with his battle scenes ..he had dragons fighting soldiers (who were all name joe for some reason) tanks and every toy from star wars you can imagine ...and every pokemon toy...anyway these battles took over the whole house and often lasted a week or more ..and they were serious battles ..el juniour would come in from school or wherever and go into battle to fight the evil scourge of wherever (that always changed for some reason) ...so for days i would be stepping over dead bodies and jumping out of the way of the tanks etc ...all part of childhood (i used to join him as well but shhhh dont tell)
and then we would make cakes food etc and the kitchen looked like a real war had went on it ...it all got tidied at the end ....eventually ...but for me it was far more important to have the fun ...funny thing son moved out over a year ago now and he still leaves rubbish in the house...some things never change do they :rolleyes:
...anyway my friend who is fantastic at tidying should have a gold medal in the sport ...well she is coming on saturday to sort my down stairs ...she is under the impression she is gonna get free rein ..:rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: ....never i like my rubbish ...but by sunday night it wil be much more tidy and able to accomadate 1 single girl with a few of her posessions.....
the plan behind it all is to try and get mr el used to having someone else here ...then to maybe introduce a lodger once my good friend has wandered off for more of her travelling
so thats my weekend what you doing?

Oh EL, target practise again!!!!! the little !!!!ers..i could scream for you. Ditto what Skinty said.Blackadder: Am I jumping the gun, Baldrick, or are the words 'I have a cunning plan' marching with ill-deserved confidence in the direction of this conversation?
Still lurking around with a hope of some salvation:cool:0 -
Wish I had a friend to come and help me sort my house out.....sigh!!!!....
Children should be allowed to play.A social worker once said to me that they are suspicious if they visit houses and they are spotless with nothing out of place!!!!
That's bad news about your job.Were you expecting it?..is it the job you are getting shot at?
I didn't know you did more than one job EL...as well as uni...0 -
skint to be totally honest ...cause i have now got myself back into debt with trying to start a business i cant afford to loose the job ...but it is the job i havnt enjoyed for so long now ...and when i get nights like tonight and no support or back up from the employers i feel like packing it in ...so while yes part of me is sad i need the money the other part says ..relief ..we will manage...we will get by ...life will go on ...and i think because it is relatively easy money you think oh i wont pack that in ...but summer is coming and i just know i would get fed up of working all the time ...so whilst i wouldntve packed it in cause it is easy money i wouldve moaned the whole way through ...this way the choice is taken outa my hands ...i like that ...
i have to say when i got the letter i was like ..oh ok then that's fine ...i wasnt upset like i was last year when we were told (it happens every year) this year though i think it might actually happen as there is no more funding there is no more money they have used every get out of jail free card that they have and still havnt got them selves sorted ...and a big part of me is relieved ...especially since i probably wouldve had to stay for the money
shame i dont get redundancy though ...oh well0 -

i know i get totally pee'd off with it bob ...but more than that ...they in a way dont know no better ...i get really peed off with the company not caring about it not bothering their backsides ....
did i tell you i told the boss to get his finger outa his butt (well i used the coarser term) and do his job last night ...0 -
i'm more worried about mr el ...his back is not getting any better ..he is on so much medication now it's unreal ...he went to physio today and the young lad that took him was like mr el you are in some shape for a man your age you shouldnt be on that much medication ....gave him some excercises to do and he has been in agony ever since ...now that worries me alot more than redundancy0

I understand now why you don't seem that bothered about it!!!...nobody should have to put up with crap in their job all the time.Something better will probably come along very soon.0
