    Okay, your light's out, I'm hoping that you're sleeping. And dreaming nice dreams.

    Toms, i would put them under some sort of plastic bottle, upended with the top cut off,if they are too big, then netting around to keep off squirrels.
    Hope you slept well!:D
    Nagging wise, only with your best interests at heart:A , and i suppose you can take a horse to water but you cant make it drink:cool:
    I am lousy with advice myself, hence the knee operation:rolleyes:

    last night shift done yippeee ...have been out and bought neice (well friends daughter but i'm her aunty) her b/day prezzie got some moon sand i am gonna have so much fun playing with that i can tell ya ....

    i think my hours are being cut at job no2 ...i always worked tue,wed,thur and fri then in jan i got put on to fri,sat,mon ...more hours on the sat.. it was a real struggle for me if i was fri,sat,sun night shift i would come in on sat morning at 8.30 sleep till 11am then get up for my shift finish the shift at 7.30 then try and get an hour sleep in the car (never happened) no point in going home i would just get there and have to turn back round to get to job no1 so by sunday morning i wasnt worth a button ...anyway i was told this would be till march so i said ok i can suffer ...used all my holidays up so i could sleep (what a waste of holidays) then march came and went and i was still doing it ...i said look i will do it till june no further as when the summer is here if the weather is good i am going away with hubby this was agreed ...unfortunatley i had my course last weekend and have one this weekend and one next weekend (had to take holidays again only get 9 a year with job no2 3 gone 6 left) so i mentioned it again last night and was told well i dont think we can accomadate you i think you will need to drop hours ...

    in a way i would love to say forget it i dont want the job ...but it is easy money this way however i will be on half pay so will get used to less money rather than loose it all at once and i think that come september time i will be ready to say no more ...

    now i'm off out to buy some crystals then it's off to my friends house to drop off the prezzie and play with the moon sand ...

    catch ya all later

    Ooh, the moon sand sounds nice. What is it tho? Shows how out of touch I am.

    And thats *really* bad about the hours - bad and long both, thats awful. But to lose them when its not your choice, thats bad too. Well, I hope your day today is okay, anyway. Take care.
