Things can only get better

I’m not surprised you feel down sometimes - you have a lot on your plate - and cope admirably, but it must take it’s toll from time to time.
Good luck with the job application.
Fishing rod :eek: will telling him that it won’t fit into a suitcase do any good?

Thanks milann xx

So that's Wednesday done:)

Pilates this afternoon and a Mr M online delivery done. Annoyed with Mr SA as I told him a parcel was being delivered between 11 and 1 and he went out at 12. Of course they tried to deliver it while he was out and it's gone back to the depot

According to him it's not his fault because he was only out for 10 minutes!!!! So annoying

I'm working from home tomorrow so will be lovely not to rush in the morning.

Feel much chirpier today thankfully Suffering a bit with hay fever which isn't helping, fed up of runny eyes and nose.

Booked theatre tickets for Mr SA and I to see Club Tropicana next week. Thanks to me getting my ticket free as a carer it was only £23. Mr SA is chuffed to bits. It looks brilliant - 80s classics, just our era Booked seats at the end of a row so Mr SA won't fall on anyone trying to get past.

GD's 5th birthday next week, have got her presents, card etc, just got to get her a princess helium balloon - I've had my orders LOL.

Club Tropicana is brilliant. We loved the music and Kate Robbins is so funny in it. She plays the Spanish maid, Consuela.

Mr SA's latest pester is a fishing rod :eek: He wants it for holiday. He rang me twice today to talk about it. I've told him to wait until we get there as I'm sure he'll have gone off the boil you then. No idea where he's going to fish, if he thinks I'm sitting there while he fishes he can think again. Goodness knows where he's got this idea from.

The new budgets commence from today and have started as I mean to go on with a NSD

I would not be giving Mr SA any lines with hooks on the end. He will take someone's eye out. :eek::rotfl:

Thanks ES. I'm sure I have a single of Kate Robbins in the loft from the 80s

That's Thursday work from home day done

Got a fair bit done. Good job I was home as Mr SA fell in the pond

He was in a right state, honestly you couldn't make it up!!

Shortly after that he broke the toilet seat

Sometimes I wonder if someone up there is having a laugh

On a more positive note, it's Friday tomorrow and I'm meeting a work friend for a drink at lunchtime

Bloody hell! How did you get him out?

And wow to the toilet seat (HOW??)

and sending you love XXX

Oh SA , you are so slight , how did you get Mr SA up? Has he hurt himself ?

You will need that drink tomorrow. Enjoy your lunchtime meet up.

He got himself up thankfully there was a plank across the pond that I'd asked him to move, he managed to hoist himself up with this. I was busy working away when he appeared outside the patio doors soaking wet. I had to fetch him some dry clothes. His knee is grazed and he's hurt his ribs but otherwise ok. He's too heavy for me to help up, he weighs over 10 stone more than me plus he's a foot taller.

In other news the boiler needs servicing, plus the 2 year guarantee is up, rang the plumber who fitted it, went to voicemail, still no reply after a week. Decided to go back to British Gas, went through Quidco, gone for the 4 star that I used to have, covers boiler, heating, plumbing, electrics, drains £23 a month and got £75 cashback. The thing is if the boiler had broken down I would still be waiting for the plumber to get back to me whereas BG would be out straightaway. Wise decision for peace of mind I think.
