Days I wouldn’t wish

on my worst enemy.

Monday morning, and I finished sorting out a box of stuff from under the table before heading off to work. And then coming back inside to wake up Tim and whinge as my car wouldn’t start :( All that happened when I turned the key was a plaintive whirring noise, not good.

So I took Tim’s car and abandoned mine in the drive, and drove through the fog over the hills. It was very foggy - so foggy that at times it felt like I was the only person in a very small world. Probably having Marillion’s Season’s End: Remastered playing throughout added to the feeling ;)

To work, for another hectic day. Team numbers are dropping off steadily now as ppl take their holidays before the end of the year. It’s making for a quiet building, but the work is piling up steadily on my desk atm. Ah well, keeps me out of mischief. Oh, and having my mobile phone pass out on me for the day just added to the thrill. Dunno what that was about - it came back on about half an hour before I headed for home.

Turns out the car just needs a new battery, so Tim is sorting that out tomorrow, while I take the kids to school. He says they’ve had a day of three R’s, reading, ‘riting and recorder :) Have asked that he blogs on home topics a little more often - it would be nice to be able to read what’s going on.

Now I must go get some food. Made the mistake of standing on the scales at my sister’s yesterday and I’m actually considering giving up eating for a week or so :( How did I manage to put on so much weight without noticing? Well, I did notice at the time, but I thought there was a good reason for it. Now how do I get it to go away???

Grumph. Must go and run up and down the stairs for a while.

    Just checking. You are joking about the Chocolate Bourbon diet, right?

    Is that the diet where you eat the chocolate biscuit called Bourbon, or the diet where you eat chocolate and drink Bourbon? :)

    sympathies on the weight, but are you sure it’s not faulty scales? Just wondering….

    And I haven’t heard Marrilion’s Seasons End for years! that’s a real blast from the past, will need to go dig it out now!

    Well, depends what you are asking. If you’re asking if it works really, no i’m not joking.

    was that Chris’s fault for bringing some round????
    I always blame him as I was exceptionally thin before we met, so it must be purely him that has caused weight gain - right????
