Oh SA how annoying about the job, you must waffle more next time!
Hope you enjoyed the wine xxMummytogirls x0 -
There'll be other jobs and at least I'll be more prepared next time. I've put my toys back in the pram now
It could only happen to me. Found a dog on the way to work this morning, wandering close to the road near the city centre. It was only a little thing and looked so scared. I couldn't just leave it so took it to a nearby leisure centre where I hung around while they rang a few lost dog places. Eventually they put it behind reception while I went to work. Anyway the upshot is the stray dogs place have found the owner, really pleased about that
I don't think there's a part of my body that doesn't ache after the Pilates - and I'm used to exercise! Will be back next week for more though. Went for a run in the gym at lunchtime so that's 3/12 March gym sessions so far.
Meeting a friend for a drink tomorrow afternoon, don't see her very often as she lives on the Yorkshire coast. Looking forward to it.
All I can say is it's been an eventful week!I get knocked down but I get up again (Chumbawamba, Tubthumping)0 -

Had a lovely catch up with my friend. We were that busy chatting I ended up staying longer than I planned.
Mr SA fell in the pond today trying to feed the birds. I asked him if he'd retrieved the dog's lost balls while he was in there but he wasn't amused.
Got back home to find the dog had bought me some flowers and a card for Mother's Day.
And that's it really, no other news. Last two items a bit surreal

Hi Sun.A,
..Another eventful week, eh? Can't help feeling the job thing was but prep for a better post heading your way in the pipeline.
Well done for helping to get the lost dog back home, and it's lovely to know your own pup really appreciates you!0
