We think our been will be ready to bottle this weekend - and then 4 to 6 weeks of Dr Dragon going "Is it ready yet?"
Still no news on the job front, I want Dr Dragon to be working again (been smashing having him home and cups of tea provided on cue hmmmm :coffee:, but we need the dosh!)

Knitting.... bottling beer.... taking up refs.... excellent on everything but the pain, which is horrible for you.

Some can be yes Taxi - but we are starting with a couple of kits (4.5% abv) so he gets used to it and then he can start working on doing beer from scratch!
Still no news on the job frontbut I have nearly finished the cuff of my first sock! :eek: and I have finished another item on my 101 list

A very good day all told - although OH has still not heard about the job he went for on Monday he hasn't heard he hasn't got it either (so living in hope here!) other than that, knitting socks - I have reached the heel on the first one (and got stuck! I have no idea how to turn the heel!), OH finished the beer and we bottled it today (only 2 weeks left to wait on this one!).
I managed to grow my nails - I really need to have a proper manicure - but that will have to wait until OH is working again, I am keeping up with drinking water daily, taking my multivits and taking care of my skin also exercise - have started doing some again, just need to keep on with this, oh and you don't want to know the type of exercise:D:rotfl:

Not much happening in the Dragon household - I have no idea what is happening with my money as the Government in their infinite wisdom (can you hear the sarcasm?) have changed the way I get paid with only a months notice - I just hope my overdraft means that I won't get charged for standing orders/direct debits not getting paid!
Weight is sort of stable (creeping down VERY slowly) and CC is creeping down as well - so far so good!Do not meddle in the affairs of Dragons, for thou art crunchy and good with catsup

How have they changed how you are paid?
I used to be paid every fortnight on a Wednesday both my Incapacity Benefit and my Disability Living Allowance, they wanted to change my DLA to monthly in arrears :eek:, but I managed to get that to weekly, but I have no idea WHAT day that will be paid on. My Incapacity Benefit I understand will be paid fortnightly still but they are changing the day for that as well and they will not tell me when it will be :mad: - so having finally got all my SOs and DDs sorted out to be paid when my money goes in they muck it all up again - the first I knew of it was when I got a letter a fortnight ago telling me it was all changing as of the 1st February!Do not meddle in the affairs of Dragons, for thou art crunchy and good with catsup
