note to self p 53

(where has the view first unread gone?)

Had a lovely (and tearful) night out last night. My friend (and former colleague then supervisor but still a friend:D) is going in for her op on my interview day - full hyster...
Tears because she never got her baby. Now it's going to be final so she's very down. Fortunately of the six of us two others were also not mums.

Mum has been and looked at the job docs so now feeling she can support me in this and has told me she could see that I have been depressed. So probably the right decision IYSWIM. I'll add more if I get it - suffice to say work is not going particualrly well at present. I just need some good answers for the 'why are you considering leaving your present position' questions...
Feel free to chip in girlies!

Happy Birthday JO:bdaycake:

I've got to go as I've got a burn on stomach that has become infected. I've spoken to the pharmacist and they said I should go to the doctors today, particularly with it being a Friday, as there'd only be the emergency doctors over the weekend.

sunnygirl (((gentle hugs)))) how on earth did you get a burn on your stomach - sounds painful especially since its got infected - hope the doc sorts you out.

fedup ddecluttering our homes helps to declutter our minds and bodies - it has a strangely good feeling about it doesnt it - well done to you. And that BRILLIANT news about the interview - when is it so we can send good vibes? A new job would be a great boost to you just now.

choccybix - I dont envy you that washing!!!
methe kids thats a great start getting the 2 of them to do their own laundry -and I think you are very wise trying to sort your LR out - thats where you want to be able to relax and not look at piles of stuff to be sold. I hope your work is a bit easier now and more achievable which will give you less stress - and the sooner you get your Mum's place sorted out that will help too - you are needing to take some time to yourself and not running after everybody else IMHO!!! take it steady love and try not to over do it (((hugs)))

Soappie I was interested in your Soappie special with the garlic bacon and tomatoes.

Dead easy really - a sort of fridge bottom pasta. I use fusilli. Just stick a bit of olive oil in a saucepan lob in some chopped onion, garlic, bacon rashers cut up into pieces, mushrooms, a bit of red or green pepper if you have them. Few twists of black pepper. Let them all fry gently for a bit then add a tin of chopped tomatoes and any herbs you have to hand. I threw in some chopped fresh basil that's growing on the windowledge. Then let it bubble away for a bit. Throw some hot, cooked pasta in with it, mix it all up and serve. Voila, another Soappie Special has been created.

Carlsberggal - glad the room's sorted

Hugs Holly hoep your kids settle down soon

Have been out to the villagy bit of town and stocked up on provisions. The weather went wet a bit ago so it's cooler which is nice.

There is a child crying for the 5th time this morning. I wish to resign from the position of mummy, the staff are incompetent whingers who have no respect at all for the management.

Tried to do a trial run on desert for tomorrow but small boy has eaten all of the strawberries I bought yesterday. Trot up the garden to get some from the fruit cage. Discover that small boy has left the fruit cage door open and the chickens have eaten all the starwberries, most of the raspberries and all but 10 of the blueberries. Cry and give up.

:o:o

Meant to say WELL DONE to Carol...

right off to put ironing away and do stuff. I have a 'bit of a thick head' actually (so much so that I went to town on the bus...)

Go on then Neveah!

Just eating lunch - DH is asleep on the bed - WM has just finished so I'll put that on the line in a minute. I've already brought in the washing that was on the line and ironed it! Next job I think is to have a re-sort of my wardrobe and possibly get rid of some stuff and move some stuff around. Downstairs is a pigsty though but now I've done all this ironing I want to put it all away before it's creased again!

BlimusOreilly

My hhc turned into an hour as I got a bit side-tracked outside!

I managed to:

Put a load of washing out
water the plants
dig up some spuds
scrub the garden table and chairs

and that's all considering it was an hour.
Going to make some lunch and then do an inside hhc after that.

juliejim

I'll join you in about 5 mins neveah and valli - I'll just finish my wrap first.
