November 23 My Boy...Is a very honest child, very straightforward and to the point. Walking home from rehearsals yesterday he announces, totally out of the blue.... 'Mummy, which of those new nintendos that you are hiding on top of your wardrobe is mine, I'd like the blue one please and is the football table mine too?' I was stunned, had to laugh, asked him how he had known to look on there, turns out he noticed the edge of a box and had pulled over my bedsise table to reach and see what was up there, seems he told Marianne too, so now they both know that I'm replacing their old nintendos for xmas, damn! Pointed out it wouldn't be much of a surprise now and he told me that it was ok, he didn't really want a surprise, but I could buy him a transformer if I wanted to surprise him, bless.
Kids :) November 20 AlmostTen cigarette free weeks, almost crumbled last saturday , after the really bad gales overnight I had no sat' TV (I don't watch it but the kids...) one of the backyard gates hanging on by a hinge, that was bloody hard to fix as they are 7 foot long each and damned heavy, worked out that wedging it up was the easiest way to do it, the sat' TV had me sat with my head in my hands as I really hadn't budgeted for that going wrong, but must have been something and nothing as the reception was back on sunday. I digress, anyway I was stressing quite badly and thought "a ciggy will make it all better" so, off to the shop only to be refused a pack of cigs! I had told the chap in the shop (we talk a lot because he's a gamer too hehe) not to sell me cigs under any circumstances, no matter how much I begged and pleaded, and bless him he stuck to it! Glad he did too, I would hate to let my kids down, they are so proud of me for giving up :)
Had a mini concert yesterday, Owen has been having flute lessons and played me the song that he learned, and some 'tunes' that he made up himself, loved every minute of it, he really throws himself into everything that is put infront of him and does the best he can with it, amazing child.
Parents evening, as usual was an absolute joy, people say I must push them too hard with the results that they get, not so, they are both very bright, I just encourage them not push, they love learning and I hope that never stops.
Work...hm, lets not go there, moving departments so, we will see how it goes, eh. October 21 The Hamster...Died tonight... Two years old, so pretty much as old as hamsters get, kids upset, but will not get another small cage mammal. Thing is, I got it out of the cage, it was stiff and cold but it's front paws were twitching, so wasn't quite sure what to do, leave it in it's nest 'til it stopped, or (this sounds awful...) dispose of it. Phoned my mum, she said to just deal with it and dispose of it, which I suppose is the best thing, so I did and now I'm trying not to think about it as I really need to sleep tonight, having only totalled around six hours sleep since Saturday night and I am shattered.
Owen's not been well, was up Sunday night with a very bad cough, so I stuck him in with me to keep an eye on him, had to collect him from school early on Monday as he was getting worse so was up with him most of monday night as well, a little better yesterday and he got a good nights sleep, but I couldn't sleep at all, despite (or inspite of) being very very tired, the last time I looked at the clock before I did manage to sleep , it was 3:20am :/ Anyway, kids in bed now and I'm on my way too, just hope I manage to sleep tonight! October 03 Three...Whole weeks without a ciggie, had to stop using the patches as they were giving me very vivid and bad dreams, hardly using the gum either , to be honest I'd rather not be reliant on the therapeutic nicotine, so it's cold turkey from now on, quite pleased with myself, am finding it annoying when out, how many people smoke in the street and it can be unavoidable, walking through a cloud of just puffed out ciggie smoke is pretty rank, I feel embarrassed that I was guilty of it a few weeks ago. Worse still is talking to someopne who has just had one, did I really smell like that??
I know, nothing worse than a reformed smoker, but you don't realise how nasty it is for other people who don't smoke until you stop.
Work all weekend, quite stressed about this and te hours I'm working in general, some things at work are very unfair at the moment, and I will more than likely rant about it tonight! September 20 My baby....Goes on her first trip away from home tomorrow (well, she has been away with her dad before, but this is with school, so it's a big event!) Five days in the lakes, typical outward bound kind of thing, she can't wait, case packed, re-packed, checked and re-packed several times to make sure we haven't forgotten anything, a voluntary early night. I'm excited for her and I am going to miss her so much, Owen says I have not to worry, we will 'hang out' together and have fun while she is away. No worries about it, she is a very sensible and responsible child... It's next year when Owen goes that I'm dreading! I'll think about that then, no point worrying in advance!
Am now 8 days smoke free, very proud of myself, it's not been easy, but hopefully this time I will give up for good and not go running out for a pack at the first sign of stress!
Not updated for a while, nothing much exciting happening, still no man in my life (I give up on sites and suchlike, am sure there is someone out there and if there is he'll come along sooner or later without me looking, leave it to fate is best I think!), still spending way too much time gaming, still pissed off with work hehe... Nope, nothing much to report at all! August 09 Starring Roles!The kids just phoned, today was audition day for the next show that they are involved in , and of course, again, both of them are in lead roles, the show is similar to the last one, (assorted songs from well known musicals) and Marianne has the part of Simba in three songs from Lion King and Owen has the part of.... can't remember the name, some bird Z... something or other, Lion King was never one of my favourites to be honest!
So proud of them, they have both been rehearsing all week and it's paid off, can't wait for the show, few months to go yet though!
Odd moment today, had taken Dave for a walk and ended up walking a short distance behind the kids, their dad and his girlfriend, did not make my presence known though, because for some reason (sure I have mentioned it before here) his girlfriend really dislikes me, she hardly knows me, has no reason to dislike me that I can think of... Insecurity? Jealousy? God knows, I certainly don't! She's a very clingy and posessive type seemingly...Oh well, he's happy and she's good with the kids.
Anyway, a picture from the last show with both of my babes in :) Marianne as Annie and Owen, knelt down next(ish) to her.
 August 08 Two Weeks...Off work, and this week the kids are staying with their dad all week, always has them one week out of the year, but he booked the wrong week as he usually has them when I'm working... no work and no kids, what am I going to do?! Good job I have the pup, lots of walks planned, but he does tire after a short while so I can't take him far...hmmm. At least my shopping for the week should be straightforward, 7 bottles of wine and 7 assorted pizzas should do it!    July 25 Well.....Feel worse today... have very swollen painful glands as well as headache and chills etc, had to go out to the shop as I have noone to help me at the moment, can't (or don't want to rather) phone my dad. My mum had a 'funny turn' in Tesco yesterday morning, and it panicked her, I got a call from them asking for my dad to go get her as soon as he got back to mine with the Tamiflu, then my mum phoned on her mobile, crying and upset, was awful, nothing I could do as I'm not supposed to leave the house. Luckily my sister works in the town, in the same place as me, so, phoned her and she was round to my mum in minutes. Mother who hates fuss insisted on getting a taxi home, my sister (being a first aider) not happy with this, wanted to get her an ambulance, but she still said no, Any how, my dad came back with the flu meds, told him to get home asap. My sis phoned him and told him in no uncertain terms to get mum up to A&E asap, he did, it's looking like she has a 'mild heart condition' she was kept in overnight for tests.
So, I really don't want to phone my dad for anything! July 24 The Divorce..Goes to court today, niether of us need to attend as it is uncontested. So, bar the final letter, today my marriage is finally over. A bittersweet day, we had a good marriage, I still love him, he knows that, just not in the ways that I should, but we have our friendship (not that his girlfriend likes that!) and we have two fabulous kids.
Just realised it's the 24th, odd we got married on the 24th and now we get divorced on the 24th (different months of course!)
Anyway I feel like poo, swollen glands, huge tonsils, a really bad headache, not fun, question is do I go to work, I don't actually feel that bad that I would want to phone in sick (I rarely phone in sick, I have to be bedridden before I call in!) but with all the panic about SF I'm unsure what to do, but I don't fancy calling a hotline manned by someone with 3 hours training and a checklist... Besides if it was flu I would know about it! Only four hours to work this afternoon then the weekend off, so not too bad.
On with the day!
*edit* after feeling increasingly shitty, I phoned and have been issued Tamiflu, which my dad is currently on a mission to collect for me :( told to stay in the house and at least a week off work. It is a concern having had pneumonia in the past 2 years, I'd much rather be fine and at work though. July 21 Oh Dear...The company the ex works for has gone into admin today... Was in tears when he picked the kids up, has a new car which still needs paying for, planning his wedding, obligation to the kids (obviously I have agreed that we will manage without that if possible, but it will be tight without it, uniforms for next term, things that Marianne needs for the outward bound she is going on in sept...)
Is it horrid to say that at times like this, I am so glad that we are not together?
Since we split he has gone silly with his money, if he has it, it gets spent, odd, he was never like that when we were together, anyway, he says he will have no problem getting another job nothing like being positive, eh, he is an engineer (operates CNCs and suchlike) but, he doesnt have his papers, never finished his apprenticeship, and I didn't like to point out the obvious... Rising unemployment and a hell of a lot of people already out of work looking for jobs. Also, if he does get another job, his hours affect mine etc and things are bad enough regarding that at the moment, being heavily reliant on my mum while the kids are off school and her having to pick them up sometimes when they are at school. *sigh*
Oh well day off tomorrow, hope the weather improves for it! |
Hi all, please leave a comment, point of view, profundity, profanity....whatever you like!!! Smile, life's good! (Well, sometimes it's shite but hey...)
