    I am a rubbish shopper at the mo. The stuff I didn't get done due to snow is still either being postponed (due to a snow related car problem) if it's out of town, or screwed up! Lost a receipt. some photos didn't save properly, or just forgotten as i didn't write it down properly! Bah! Months spent building up a good reputation - and I'm blowing it all!

    Too much on? Maybe take a step back on it all, easier said than done but better than blowing up completely. :)

    I've had a week like that too. Have decided to take the rest of the year off and see what I can do to redeem myself next year!

    I had a terrible day too today-more haste less speed and all that!
    As I was in the general area, decided to take an extra job in the wilds, got stuck behind a skip lorry behind a gritter all over the hills and dales!
    Then due to piles of snow everywhere couldnt get near the town centre, late to my shop ( had to be done by 3) still had time to do the jewellery bit before time ran out, then the staff all disappeared so I waited 15 mins for my item to be brought- got to jewellery late, got held up on way home as it was then rush hour- late for taking bunny to vet, fortunately the next person hadn't turned up.
    Then did a quick garage job that was to be done earlier and was so stressed I forgot to write his name down and it's totally forgotten!

    Spent 4 hours inputting all the jobs, (I RE to write up, but can't be having with all the faffing tonight) now exhausted,
    BUT I don't care cos I've got a bottle of wine in the fridge:T
  • My re pub dinner yesterday evening:

    The scene: a small, urban local pub frequented by regulars.
    Two of us stride in and towards the bar. No sign of menus anywhere. "Hello, are you doing food?" "Nope, we've no kitchen until January. Sorry." "Oh... Well we'll just have drinks then. Have any good lagers?"

    On a scale of 0 to 10 where 10 is wildly conspicuous, how obvious was it that we were there to ms? :p

    Thanks guys. It does make me feel miles better that it's not just me! Wish I had wine! Its partly the time of year, partly ennui, and partly getting offered stuff for my other job (which pays better)

    Here's to the Christmas break!
