    I am hoping to book the dentist before half term, purely because I am sick of having to do stuff like that in my holidays!

    tho I had better hurry up. had migraine type headache, 3 days. took today off. just needed everything to stop.

    The Ruby Wax Who do you think you are programme was very moving.

    IT IS HALF TERM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Yesterday was the WORST day of the entire term and goes on the list for reasons to change jobs at the end of the year.

    Life here has been hard frankly! BIL had a difficult time and then got really ill. It was a bit scary earlier in the week. And typically with my family it was all secret squirrel so that was fun! NOT.

    Money wise I am funding all of Amazon's profits, click click click click

    It told me I have made a 122 orders in the last 6 months :embarasse:silenced:naughty::doh:

    Moving on!

    the spending is clearly a reaction to having zero time and little control over my life.

    I will admit tho, I bought new colouring book and thoroughly enjoyed my morning, cup or tea and colouring. such bliss not to feel rushed.

    Work is quite enjoyable in someways but takes up all my time. I have given up tutoring which is sad but needed to be done.

    I am just so relieved it is half term. Words cannot express the relief!

    Will now go and have a read XXX

    I love you lot. Truly I do.

    I have the dentist on Wednesday (YUCK!)

    AND

    The RABBIT AVIARY IS UP

    which means my darling bunnies are moving outside.

    Yes I know it is October but they will have a heater and a bale of hay and snugglesafes. I can't stand it anymore the poo and mess. I love them but they aren't fully litter trained and on carpet it is revolting.

    So once that happens I can sort upstairs out and we can have the doors open again!!

    BIL is utterly miserable - fair enough obviously but health wise is doing a bit better.

    seeing my friend tomorrow night, moving fish tanks on Tuesday. Dentist and more house stuff wed, my room Thursday, new sofas come Friday.

    Big love to you XXXXXX
