Back to work this week AC

Keep telling myself only 5 weeks till summer holidays and 8 weeks off :T:T

It's a bit daunting isn't it - surrounded by boxes and if you're like me, most uninspiring!

My eldest daughter is home for Uni today, she's finished forever - 4 years in Newcastle done and dusted - very exciting new chapter of her life about to start. She'll be moving abroad after the summer so that will be hard for me.

Hope it all works out for your daughter ( I'm sure it will )
It reminds me of the company I just left . There was a nice pretty lady who at the time had just left uni and worked in that company. She was working in the best dept . Her work involves going abroad for business now and again . She is always one of the first in the morning
She always says hello and is so easy going . Very professional .
I made sure to tell her that she was the best person in the company ( apart from me obviously ) . She must be there about 5 years now .
If your daughter can get a similar break , all will be well.
One of my sisters is a teacher for children with certain learning difficulties . She loves the job but is so busy . I think she's back to work also .

Mmmm
So hear I am sitting down ( again) , looking at what's left in the bedroom. Those large plastic crates although labelled , can help me see what's in front of me . Millions of carrier bags are beginning to disappear. Shoe boxes will have to go under the bed for now . I have 3 boxes of vinyl . Annoying really in a way .
Back in the mid '80s when cd first came out , I alongside many others started buying those and ended up selling vinyl or keeping the stuff with great artwork sleeves etc. I used to collect vinyl , and made a killing selling the valuable stuff. The stuff I have left is not worth too much in the scheme of things and I do wonder at this moment if I should just get rid and buy it again on cd and download . I still prefer having a physical cd .
More cardboard is being folded . It's stop start at the moment . This medication makes you feel sick now and again .
May go to the chippy later. Haven't been out yet . Hopefully next week the place will be much better and I will have a home for everything .
Then hopefully I can go to the gym etc

I forgot to mention, I had to go to post office to collect a letter that had £2 surcharge to pay as there was no stamp on envelope.
It was from mr. Carpet . It was an invoice for outstanding balance which I duly paid . In with the invoice was a flyer telling me I could get the spare offcuts converted into rugs/ mats . I think they could change the colour . Most definitely worth doing . I have a fair bit left over. When my flat is decluttered it is something I will look into

We have weekly bin collections down in deepest Cornwall.


Another one who has got rid of loads on freecycle - beds, sofa beds etc., and furniture. It's great and costs nothing! Also feel I am doing my bit for people who are struggling or just setting up home together.

Lets hope the £42k of debt is put to more use than that!

I'm sure it will be

So, I thought I'd play some music via you tube on Apple TV .
Apple TV is frozen . Must be another poxy needless update .
I found out a few possible solutions, but none work of course.
Just as well I found another remote from my old one . That works.
I'll give it a few days before I complain to Apple .

Thanks Anna . Yes I have that
It's a common problem apparently. All this stuff is great when functioning properly . Pita when not
