    Hiya agin.
    Just heard my granmother passed away at 12 noon today. We were not close and as alot of you know i dont speak to my mum and havent for about 5 years.
    My sister phoned to let me know, and has asked if i will go to the funeral with her as she too doesnt speak to my mum.
    I feel awful as i am not upset, and i should be, am i awful for saying that???

    Hi dlb. Sorry to hear about your grandmother. No, it's not wrong that you are not upset - I lost both my grandmothers in the past 2 years and didn't really get upset at all about my dad's mum (died 2 years ago yesterday) as I was never really close to her and hadn't had much of a relationship with her since I was in my early teens. If somebody is a "relation" but you don't have a "relationship" with them, it's natural not to feel too upset. :)

    Just had an interview for a job starting in April, and I GOT IT!!!!! Woohoo! :j :j :j :j :j :j It's only for a term, but it's a nice school. I thought that I'd messed up the interview and the teaching bit, but they really liked it! :j :j :j :j :j Yes, I'm a teensy weensy bit excited!!!

    Added to that, DH and I are going to London tomorrow as one of our Christmas presents from friends was entrance to Vinopolis - the lovely wine place! A big cause for celebration.

    As a celebratory supper, we're having pasta with a stir through sauce (cheap from the cheapy shop near my parents :D) and I may well partake in half a glass of wine before heading down the A14 to our friends house in sunny Stowmarket. We're staying there as they live within walking distance of the station, so we will only have to roll up the hill tomorrow night! :D

    I'll go and be excited elsewhere!
