Buffy's Savings Diary

Buffythedebtslayer

Ugh.

Feel sick.

had a good day Saturday and rotten (feeling sick/pain) day Sunday - mainly I suspect because I did housework on Saturday and paid for it Sunday.

Ankle is less swollen but went to the doctors and have to have it x rayed again and am signed off till next Monday.

It isn't great re work. But I am relieved. I know I sound like a baby but it really has hurt!

Saves petrol money.

need my afternoon nap

I really do hate that I have again allowed myself to be manipulated by people at work.

I can't say much but suffice to say I was sucked in by flattery and I MUST remember that this is only because I am a mug and will do things if someone is nice and charming.

So I shall re read my job description and go from there.

Armed police at the football.

oh dear God. what a world. what a !!!!ing world.

they just played the clip of the explosion at the Stade de France. the moment one human being blew himself up.. The victims are in my mind but I think of his Mum and Dad and the way people love their kids. How horrifying to know someone you made did this.

I am hungry.

hope your ankle gets better soon buffy.

yes, don't allow them to manipulate you at work - if you're hurt you're hurt - there are many who wouldn't actually care about not being there and they are always the ones who get treated the best. Those who are actually loyal and conscientious always get sh@t on!!!!

Brian Blessed is on the news promoting something. He is mad but very interesting.

The title is a quote from him.

Today (And indeed yesterday) things are very miserable here.

I don't think I have said but the fridge freezer has broken - been so for about 3 weeks, repair not possible so was to be replaced under the insurance - but we had to refuse delivery as they sent the wrong colour.

I have been trying to keep positive for mum as she finds all this very stressful. But my foot hurts and I am so stressed about work.

this has meant a diet of frozen food, I can't drive so can't go and buy anything and Mum is reluctant to leave the house. I have - sorry to over share had an upset tummy and not really been eating so well.

My sister and her bf came over yesterday and I was so upset by the state of the house. You see before I fell over I had cleared the whole weekend to tidy/clear out the last remaining piles (heaps) around the house. So all that week I had moving stuff to the conservatory in heaps to sort out the weekend.

Obviously that didn't happen and it is not recycling week so as all my shopping has come from Amazon we now have cardboard boxes all over the show.

Plus all my school work is in there now (had to move it yesterday)

It looks like a hoarders paradise.


And so I had the judgement looks from her (as fair enough most of it is mine) I just hate feeling like I don't have it together at all. I mean I am a grown up!

Then last night I noticed my poor hamster has a lump. This gentle quiet no trouble boy who has escaped multiple times and lived behind the wardrobe for a week at a time, who has ended up being neglected since I got the (bloody) rabbits is now possibly in pain and suffering.

I feel such guilt. SUCH ridiculous pointless guilt. I just know if I had sorted out my room/conservatory he could have had a better time. he would have been able to come out more. and not just get food and water and cuddle if I wasn't too late/early going to bed. He has a huge wheel but really his cage is too small (it was the only one he could not escape from) and with the rabbits it is hard to coordinate the letting them in and out! and lets not start on the guinea pigs.

I am trying to appreciate that there are bigger things - I am an adult and I know this is all a bit silly but looking after my pets is important to me. I am responsible for their whole existence. I took the hamster on from a woman who got a dog and didn't want him any more. I wanted him to have a great life.

And I appreciate that sounds mean about the rabbits but they are driving me a bit nuts. they take so much more care inside than I fully realised. And they get it cos they make a fuss (squeaky wheel getting the oil!) if they don't get let out and their distress at being stuck inside is obvious

I don't even know what I am trying to say with this. My foot hurts, I sort of slept am freaked about work. And I am hungry and humiliated by last night.

I am going to watch the Disney channel. I know that won't help but since I am trapped on the sofa it is the best I can do!

No idea what to say Buffster TBH.

I know its hard but dont worry about your sister.
She doesen't pull her weight or help~~enough said.

Any chance you could rehome the rabbits? Maybe worth thinking about?

Why are you stressed with work when you are not there? What am I missing?

Dont be so hard on yourself(says me!!!!)

So what is happening with fridge/freezer now? None of my appliances match BTW.

Buffythedebtslayer

I was meant to rehome them but it became a bit of a debacle re timings plus I figured out an outside home for them - permanent access to grass/space two hutches (failed attempts to have the piggies outside) so I decided to keep them.

Then we found foxes in the garden and evidence that foxes had tried to get in the hutch.

So I brought them in. Realistically it is just for the winter. Though the piggies are ok indoors - smaller cage and easier to handle the poor rabbits need a six foot cage (which they have) and an attached run -which they don't have -they are out of the cage in the mornings and when I get home from work (but wreak havoc bless them!) and most of the weekends - having the full run of the hall way and my room.

But it isn't ideal they are in the cage all day tho. And with the foot injury trying to get about with them is difficult they have spent more time away. They are so friendly they run up as soon as you go in the room and then round in circles round you head butting you for food.

Oh I don't know!!!!!!

I am sure I started a post...........

any how, I moved the recycling out of the conservatory, checked the fish pond pumps (not been working) and nearly died......the extension lead was FULL of water.

Came in, had a nap, let the rabbits out and in a sec will go back to the conservatory.

Mum spoke to the fridge people and we have a FRIDGE coming on FRIDAY!

Stressing over work but will ask a friend to bring some books home.

Fun times.

really need a wee. hate going upstairs! every time I go up I realise I have forgotten something.

Hello Buffster

Sorry to hear you're still in pain. Time off work must be an upside though? Surely they can find cover. You shouldn't have to stress about it when you're off.

When I used to work in an estate agents, many years ago, one of our vendor's rabbits had its own bedroom.

please-let-me-be-lucky

Sorry to hear you are still in pain and are stressing more than recouperating.

Surely your Sister appreciates your situation re conservatory carnage? She will see it's been cleared next time she comes so try not to worry about it. Xx
