Over the hump…. :)

 

Hey everyone 🙂 Hope you are all awesome. 

Wed already, boy this week has just flown by and I don’t know where it has gone. 

 

Well bar from my little incident at one of my stops yesterday. Getting locked in the toilet is definitely one of the funnier things that has happened to me at work. 

 

I am just thankful it was at 1pm rather than at 10am. Or my day would have been really messed up. I was only late for one of my calls. 

 

I think everyone in my local area has heard about it by now though 🙂 lol

 

So editing/reading is going well. Been spending a few hours doing it early afternoon before anything else gets in the way. 

 

This evening though due to bad weather our main pond pipes had frozen and the tap had split. Not good. Then the filter blocked with all the dead blanketweed from having been treated these last few weeks. 😦 

 

So although I’ve not done much tonight, I’m tired. We had a chippy tea. Because we’ve no food in the house. Shopping this next week… yey.. ughh no I hate shopping too. 

 

This was just a little update. Happy hump day 🙂 and speak soon.

Monday :)

So the weekend was mostly spent in bed. Recuperating. Although I am still feeling a little full of cold. I do feel much better.

 

Wish I could take some time off work to really re-charge. But seems that they’re so snowed under they can’t. And they’ve still not advertised for the new position promised. That would help out their work/holiday load for sure. You can’t have 14 people working for you and only one person available to cover. The sums just don’t add up. When we all get 3 weeks holiday. And no one really wants to take them in the dead of winter now do they so out of the 52 weeks. Most really want there hols in the summer…

 

Oh well.

 

In other news. Treated the Koi again yesterday. Was a bit hairy towards the end. They started to sulk around the surface so I neutralized it this time and changed some water.

 

Couple of lunkers. The chemical reaction from the HP is quite strong. And they don’t like this as much as being treated with the PP.

 

Poor fish.

 

Will have to leave them for a week or so and see how they’re doing.

 

Writing wise. Finally got back into it yesterday. It is good to take some time off but hard to get back into the zone.

 

I am raring to get going some more though. Easter hols soon. This year it comes early at the end of the month. So looking forward to it. I’m physically and mentally exhausted. 😦 and I know that is why I get sick easily. Plus the ED never helped lower immune system.

 

Fingers crossed that this month starts to pick up. Mortgage adviser should get back to us with some info. And I’m hopeful for our future.

 

Fingers crossed for me everyone.

Friday :)

All I can say is thank Crunchie…. 

 

Been such a busy week. I actually started falling asleep on the couch last night at 8pm. I know sometimes I am easily wiped out, but really? 

 

So today I have had a nice afternoon kip, and I can now stay up a bit later. 

 

Not too much planned for this weekend, so I can catch up on the stuff I know I’ve missed out on this week. I owe a few people some reading crits, so I’ll have to catch up with those and then down to some serious editing. Lots to do and just not enough time in the day. 

 

How was everyone’s evening last night? I know we don’t celebrate it as such, but its nice to see all those out there that do. A nice meal and a cake for hubby and an early night for me. Was still up at 5 for work, cleaning my van early on a friday is better. Cleaner water rather than being stuck with the rest of them 🙂 

 

Had a cracking day selling my pasties, pies and sarnies… it finally is picking up from the Xmas slump. yippie… hate it when it goes down, but that is sales for you. 

 

So, off to celebrate my V day. Night all. x x

First day back at work :(

The dreaded first day back in…. ‘sigh’

Well not quite that dreaded, but after no sleep at all last night, it was tough.

So nice to see all my lovely customers though and for them to say they missed me, aww bless.

I am very tired now though… my eyes don’t want to stay open. So, no looking at the computer for too long tonight, or any writing or editing, I’ll be having an early night with a good book. 🙂

How was everyone else’s first day back?
