I haven't...

disappeared forever I promise...just got so much going on sometimes it's difficult to put it all into words...

I'll be back!

C!?!

Dawn's got a meme thing on her page that I wanted to do...all be it a little later than everyone else! What!?! I've been busy!!!


Here's the instructions: How this memetic works is that you leave a comment on this post, and I'll assign you a letter. Then you write about ten things you love that begin with your assigned letter, and post it at your place. When people comment on your list, you give them a letter, and the chain continues on and on.


I got "C" because Dawn actually hates me!


So..........


1) Chicken (I couldn't put KFC cos it doesn't start with a C!!)


2) Cadbury's (need I say more!?!)


3) Cheese - all kinds not restricted to smelly, non-smelly, squeeky, blue, green, red...!!


hey this is easier than I thought it would be......


4) Cranberry juice


5) Cake

6) Cuddles...& lots of them!


7) Cash - because I don't have enough of it!

8) Coffee - preferably starbucks coffee!

Ok.........maybe it's not as easy as I originally thought!


9) Curls - the pretty curls in my nieces hair :-)

10) C.........Cisses!?!!?!?!?! No?!!?! I know, I know it's spelt with a K!!

Ok.......

10) Clothes...that's my last resort I'm afraid...it's taken me 3 days to come up with this lot!!

Happy New Year everyone!! ;-)

Madness!

I tell you it's absolute madness!!!

Ok, so here's what's been happening since the last time I posted......which was an age ago yes I know!

Anyhoo...my boss is an absolute shite. We don't get along. He thinks I'm obnoxious! Me!?! Obnoxious!?! I've heard through the grapevine that someone had a little word in his shell like when he was appointed & so he formed his opinion based on the other asshole's perception of me...& the other asshole only had that opinion because I made him look like the incompetent piece of shit that he is!

With this in mind, I decided moving on was the best thing I could do...last you guys heard I was job hunting. I found a job working for the same company in a different department & therefore for a different manager...answered all my problems because I love working with the people in my office :-)

Went for interview...after only receiving the information on it less than 24 hours prior...& got the job!

So......I now work for the finance team, still based at my local office, earning (ever so slightly!) more money :-)

WooHoo!

In other news.......yes, I was once again roped into organising the works Christmas party...this year was not a monumental failure like last year...however, we did have some drama!

One of my workmates brought his wife for drinks after the meal...she proceeded to fall & break her wrist, meaning we had to call an ambulance for her as she passed out from the pain! I thought she was having some sort of seizure or heart attack or something & very nearly flipped out until another workmate calmed me down with a glare! :-)

Ambulance came, took her to hospital where they waited 6 hours to see a doctor (you've got to love the NHS!) & then waited another 3 days for an operation to put it right!

In other news.....I'm not feeling well & I'm writing this from my death bed! Ok, ok...so it's not my death bed, but I'm sick enough to take the day off work which I would never normally do! Ask Dawn...she knows how much I'd rather be at work than at home!!!!

Hopefully I'll be back sooner than any of you expect & you'll be telling me to shut up already! ;-)

Til then...Merry Christmas & Happy New Year to you all!

Life is happening around me...

There's nothing I can say that warrants an interesting post I'm afraid...

Work is busy, in a good way, but they don't pay me enough to care as much as I do about it! I'm on the prowl for another job...I have applied for a few jobs outside the company I'm working for now, but I've also applied for a job in the finance dept of this place too.

The pay is better...I haven't told my family about it! I do have a valid reason for not telling them, but I'm not sure it's a very nice thing to do! If I tell them they'll expect more money from me...if I don't tell them, I can increase my contribution to the house to suit my own financial needs & not feel like I'm giving it grudgingly.

I want to put some money away so that I can buy my own place...but have a feeling that they want to make sure I can't do that!

My time is spent either at work...or at the gym as per usual. Some things never change! They've just put on another class on a Friday night now which means no excuses for day's off! :-)

My gym buddies are a great bunch...can sometimes be a bit demanding of my time & give me grief for not showing up at class if I've had to ditch for some family thing or other, but they mean it in the nicest possible way! :-)

I hadn't seen Dawn in about a million years until a couple of weeks ago! We're fine I think...

I haven't spent a lot of time with Tracy since before my holiday...she was a bit annoyed with me for a while, but then she found herself a man (on a more permanent basis) so she's not too fussed about me now! This is of course a good thing, because that's one less person demanding my time! :-)

The work colleague who professed her feelings seems to have completely lost the plot now...but I'm keeping my distance & not getting involved! That is one hassle I can do without....

The whole sister moving out thing seems to have come to a screeching halt, because my brother's getting cold feet about putting himself into so much debt...I'm also staying out of that because they'll only try to get me roped into the mortgage with him.

I think that's it for now...sorry it's not very interesting! I'll see if I can find something with a bit more spark for my next post! ;-)

What's the point...

It's one thing after another with me...I don't know whether I ask for it or if it just happens to me, but I don't seem to be able to keep my head above water...

Loads to tell, not enough time to tell it!

22nd Sep sis's birthday
25th Sep BIL's birthday
28th Sep Dad's birthday
29th Sep Cousin's birthday

30th Sep Uncle (father of said cousin) dies........

Previous to this...

22nd Sep - Colleague at work expresses they have "feelings" for me...I told her I didn't think I was the person to make her happy!

So much other stuff going on...!

Sis decides she wants to move out with hubby & kids...

I'm not earning enough money to get a decent mortgage so that I can move out...

My brother's new wife should be arriving in January!

Tip of the iceberg my friends...tip of the iceberg!

I'll be back with more soon hopefully.......

I am back!

No, they haven't married me off...& no, I'm not blissfully happy!!!!!!!!!

It's been 2 years today...can you believe it?!?! I can't...

I'll be back soon, when my eyes aren't so sore & I can see the screen a bit better.....

Did I mention...

I'm going away for FOUR weeks!?! With my family!?! OMG!!

I go from excitement, to panic every 60 seconds!

Makes a nice change to have a valid excuse for not posting though ;-)
