    Morning All, I am soooo sleepy today. I could quite happily have stayed in bed!


    Ok, whats been happening?


    Car? The driver side headlight bulb decided to go (only got the other side done last week!). Called garage and have to take it in after work.


    Interview? Apparently the boss there now wants to speak to me and is phoning me today. :eek:

    DVD's? Well I had a look but his DVD collection has been decimated (i.e. he's taken them to blockbuster to sell!), I could only see one of my DVDs there (a free one I got) but the film wasn't in the case. I was going to speak to him this morning about it but he scarpered up to his room about 15 minutes before I was ready to leave (I have a set routine in the morning and don't venture downstairs until washed, dressed, hair brushed etc) and had lights off, tv off and (I'm assuming) pretending to be asleep. .... Although OH said he bought a new game yesterday and instead of sleeping during the day (as he's night shift) he'd stayed up and played the game and then went to work.

    Everything else? Weight is moving as quickly as I'd like, though I was good and had a bowl of All Bran this morning (why is it when you're a kid you think the stuff is like cardboard and when you're an adult you like it?). Got a bit more of my scarf knitted, although I need to move my butt as i still need to knit the one for my friend for Christmas (once I find the wool I bought...... it might be hiding with the curtain rings as still not found them! Lol). Picking up my new winter duvet tonight. Can't wait.

    thanks HAW, nervous as I don't know when the call will be. I'm hoping it doesn't happen during a meeting or anything as answering it may be embarassing but he does know the situation.

    I'm really tired today and I'm achy. I stopped taking my multi-vitamins and wonder if it could be that? I feel like I could just sleep.

    Morning All, how is everyone?

    Picked up new duvet last night. Its lovely and warm and looks like a big fluffy cloud. I didn't want to get up this morning. Have major headache, and getting kicked about at work. Nobody knows what's happening or when. Its awful. So looking forward to the weekend. The craft fair is on and decided to use my jar of £2 to go to it. I love all the stalls and learning new things. Oh to win the lottery and be able to open my own craft shop.

    Oh craft shop would be great! A friend of mine bought one of those big wooden sheds for out the back of her house. Waterproofed and shelved it etc. and sold from there. She also put in a couple of large desks and started a weekly craft class! She loved it :)

    I'd love to do that HAW. Headache isn't shifting and I've just had a rant at Tesco Direct about a complaint and got nowhere. Their staff are uselss, wouldn't pass on my call, transfer me, email or anything! Have just sent a snotty email to head office.
