How depressing is it to jump on a plane with the sun shining in the sky and it being 30 degrees, and then landing in a typical pissy Scottish downpour and not even 20 degrees?? Answer: VERY!!
Anyway, the hols were great fun, just what the doctor ordered. Lots of sun, sea, sex, and not to bad an effort at relaxing too!!!
I conquered a fear (heights!) by attaching myself to a wire from a boat with a parachute.... VERY IMPRESSED with myself and it only took me 3 attempts to actually do it. Did I mention my terror of heights and all things associated with them?
ANDDDD....I got a phone call while I was away and so I now start work on Monday. Gawd, I know I should be pleased with that but now it is panic stations to get orgainsed from hols and get orgainised for a new job in one day!!
Sunday, June 03, 2012, 8:55:50 PM- I love me......
and my damned dipsy shit sometimes!! I don't think I know anybody else like me.... I do have a brain, really I do!! And sometimes it works really well. Other days, I just wonder where it is???
I didn't really think today through properly though because I have just had my tan done and obviously have to leave it on for a few hours to develop so I look a lot darker just now than it will when I wash it off and my face looks really dirty. I forgot I now have to go to the garage to fill the car and then shopping for food for my daughter while I am away.
But even the thought of this can't bother me today.....
Haaahaaa, I moaned to my dad about not being able to do the wallpapering. He told me to hold off till he came up later.
"Yay!" I thought to myself "He is coming to help me!"
Haahh, he came up and gave me a LESSON on how to hang wallpaper!! I know how to do it for heaven's sake, the walls are misbehaving. I suppose it did help, he gave me a couple of pointers to help me out and I did manage a few more sheets up before giving up for the night and pouring myself a well deserved and very large glass of red :D
Only one glass tonight though, we have the funeral tomorrow and time to say goodbye and pay our last respects. It's going to be a tough day and I'm finding myself sitting shaking my head in disbelief still that he is gone forever and never going to walk into my house again with a goodie bag of sweeties for the girls and a sweetie for me too, because he knew I would only steal theirs if he didn't bring me any! Dammit, now I'm crying again.....

That's it, enough is enough! I give up!!
I started wallpapering my room today but after 3 very frustrating hours and walls that are impossibly squint I admit defeat. I am going to have to hire a decorator to save the day. I don't understand because I have wallpapered before and managed both my hallway and living room before, but I just can't do it this time. All I have succeeded in doing is pretty much half of one wall and totally stressing myself out big time... grrrrrrrrrrrr
I think I will just take it easy for the rest of the day and see if my blood pressure will come down any :)

Monday, May 28, 2012, 9:25:19 PM- A night on the couch
After a busy and pretty productive day I am pretty knackered and ready for bed. Damnnn, it's not gonna happen, I have just remembered that part of my productivity was beginning the decorating of my bedroom and taking down the old blinds that were up on the windows which I have hated for ages. I meant to chat my neighbour up to put up a curtain pole for me so I could get my new curtains up but I forgot to ask him and now he is away on his holidays for 2 weeks......
Looks like I am going to be sleeping on the couch for while :(
Monday, May 28, 2012, 10:02:14 AM- Tried and tested
Well the dog gate was fine and I tried it out by throwing him in the back of the car and heading for the river yesterday. We both had lots of fun splashing around in the water and it seemed half the county had the same idea on such a great day!! I also played around with my camera and got some nice pics.
I even managed a couple of hours of study time and later found time for a perv!! (I know, always time for a perv hu!) Since its nice again I am going to take the laptop and sit outside to study some more this afternoon....might as well study in the sunshine.
We were talking to the celebrant this morning for the funeral. We are having a Humanist funeral for my uncle since he wasn't even remotely religious. I have heard lots of people talking about Humanism lately and heard only good things said about them. A much better way to celebrate a life lived than the religious mutterings that meant nothing to the person who lived the life!
