    Oh dear, England are out, hope no-one here is too disappointed.

    I have had a great DFW weekend - the sunshine sure helps, doesn't it. Yesterday was spent at a local festival watching a friend's band and tippling cider in the sun.All topped off with Doctor Who.

    Today I:

    1) Went to a car booty this morning and got a couple of bits. Spent £2 on a Laura Ashley photo frame for me and a Beatles T-shirt for B. OH got T some Power Rangers DVDS.
    2) We then all went to a free cinema preview of 'The Karate Kid'. I thought it would be more of a kids film but actually I loved it, really surprised. T said it was incredible!
    3) Went to Tesco while the football was on. Used £8 worth of MOCs which brought the weekly shop down to £54.
    4) Found a button that fell of my jacket months ago. I am chuffed cos I love that jacket and couldn't find a replacement button to fit, so now I can wear it again.
    5) SCs

    Monday again tomorrow, yuk. Enjoy your remainder of the weekend, L x

    Hello everyone , home from work and what a day it has been! Emergency after emergency today. However (and this may sound wrong) I work well under pressure solving difficult problems and today has been really stimulating for me. OK I enjoyed it. Fed everything back to the on call manager who was pleased she didn't need to give me advice because I had things in hand and the reporting was just a formality.
    Gives me mixed feelings about moving on......but......

    Today I have :

    worked 7.5 hours enhanced.
    Worked 1.30 hours to be claimed in lieu.
    Earned brownie points with colleagues and managers.
    Am doing on call duties today so will recieve enhancements.
    Took food into work
    Have agreed with DB that I can use his drive tommorow to wash car - I have never washed car myself even though I have all the stuff . Will see what kind of a job i do before i decide if it is dfw
    NSD

    And breathe - would love a glass of wine but I have run out and want to keep today NSD.
    When it rains look for Rainbows
    When its Dark look for Stars

    Morning everyone!

    We're going to a friend's house for a BBQ and the football this afternoon so have to be organised this morning and get the jobs done first.....
    • Walk dog before it gets too hot - done
    • One load of washing, dry naturally -done
    • Hoover and dust house -done
    • Do budget for July (not getting paid this month, school won't pay me until August for the supply stint, so all money comes from savings:eek:)-done, not good, will have to be very mean!
    • Sort through holiday clothes to see whether anything needs washing, mending etc - 2 weeks to go! - half done
