So yeah, yesterday was a bit of a bummer.

A rushed case of finishing work, going the dentist, shopping and a quick chippy tea. Followed by a few drinks and then bed at 1030. Not much for a friday night.

Sat, hasn’t been much better. Woke with a headache, got up. Cleaned both cages for the guinea pigs out, looked after squeeky the one with the sore. And then went to clean the ponds. Baby pond has been struggling to keep the temp warm without all the extra padding. Had to pull it off last week didn’t I, so that sucks. But all fish look fine, although the big ones are cold and don’t like it, really sluggish and daft, funny to watch.

Spent the rest of the morning the house cleaning and other general things. Went back to bed though for an afternoon kip. 🙂

Getting a little miffed with things due to lack of money, even though it isn’t my fault. Every time Paul opens his mouth it cost us something.

I didn’t want to do anything this weekend, because we’re out at a party next weekend. But, nope my hubby arranged to go to my dads, at first we were going to eat out, but I said we were skint, then his other half was going to cook, now we’re eating out again. We haven’t any cash, and I know they don’t. So I don’t want them paying for us or anything either, so it leaves me with my headache and a feeling that tonight will cost us more cash than I wanted to spend.

Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!

I haven’t gotten to do any writing today, due to doing everything else in the house. This bugs me because I have a deadline and suddenly feel like I’ve run out of steam. I’ve just run out of steam with everything else.

I don’t know about Paul being on the sick, but I could sure do with a week to catch up on things. I hate having a job that when you are ill, you get no choice but to go in, because it leaves you stressed and tired for much longer than you have to be.

This time of year sucks……

Well, best get ready to go out, I’ll try and enjoy myself, even though I am defo going to end up paying for it. 😦

Speak soon.

Finally getting  somewhere this week I think my tonsilitis is going, looks that way anyhow.

I managed to swim for a bit last night, first time in a while. Still not made the 40 mark, but considering I haven’t done it I did well 18 lengths. And even Paul managed 12. 🙂

Today even though most of it was slow at work wasn’t so bad. Got things done and was home handy, Paul had the fire lit and the animals looked after so I didn’t have to do anything. Even better.

I’ve managed only 200 words on my short story, but it is doing okay.

Guinea pig still not so good, managed to bandage his leg so hopefully he won’t be able to scratch tonight and wake us up.

All in all not a bad day, got more writing to do, going to aim for another 200 before bed. 🙂

Speak  later.

This tonsilitis will not shift. Think I am going to have to go back to the doctors. 😦

The guinea pig will not stop scratting and making himself sore, and I have a husband stuck at home… bored.

What am I to do?

Oh well, been re-writing my short film script. ‘The Hurt Inside’ I have an intended target for it so I really want to add some depth to it. Got a review on it today actually from Talentville I will put that to good use and hopefully make things much better.  🙂

I plan on doing nothing over this weekend, my dad wants us to go up to his and go out for dinner but with Paul on the sick and just getting stuff together from Xmas I can’t say ‘yes’ would be wrong just at present. We have to tighten out belts for a wee while. We’ll manage, I always have spare cash, I just don’t like spending it all.

Really quiet in work, I guess for the same reasons, if I am skint after Xmas then sure as heck most other people are. A lot of the other rounds are struggling as well, it isn’t just mine.

Just hope it will get better soon, it is quite heartbreaking sitting waiting for customers to come out and they don’t. Even more heartbreaking is the fact we throw away so much food it is unreal. I  do hate that. Especially when loads of people are so skint, food is precious we shouldn’t waste it. 😦

Hope everyone else is okay, thinking of you all.

Quick update.

Great having Paul off work, no money but at least I have a nice warm house to come home too. 🙂 Trying to get some serious writing done, so yesterday I managed 800 words. Hope to do more today.

Freezing cold weather, wish I could stay at home for a few weeks.

Quick, but hope you are all well, speak soon.
