So, my rotten car didn’t start after work, so there I am in the car park awaiting the rescue people desperate for a wee… Despite text messages suggesting I did a Joyce [thankyou - voice heavy with sarcasm!] I instead nipped and found a loo. predictably it took another 30 mins for the rather nice man to arrive. He thinks our non-functioning immobiliser functioning again, hotwired the car and made me promise not to stall on the way home [rofl]. However, seems to be non-functioning now. Shall I drive punto to work and risk it doing the same?
on a very bright note, I received 2 cheques today – one ?100 for an article I wrote – yippee! and another ?100 deposit that has been owed me for over a year. They will be spent on debt management.
On a rather scary not, I had to spend an hour with a chappie from price waterhouse coopers establishing my efficiency, and what i thought contributed and what reduced. Having decided I must have been chosen for ultimately useless efficiency, I found that actually i am in the top centile – blow me down with a feather! Interview still mind blowingingly grown up and scary though. Aaagh [still worrying about it]
So, got home rather late. girls have been at nursery – chris handed in their notice today. SB also had ballet. She says she has been doing surprises all day at nursery – does that mean we are close to mothers day then?
When I got home, Chris brought down the cooker SB got from a neighbour at about 18 months. BB thought this was the ultimate in bees knees. They both played together beautifully for over an hour. Was lovely to see. I have gorgeous daughters.
?
they are both asleep – hooray! So I have made pink fairy cakes for SB to take into nursery tomorrow to mark her birthday there. Still cooking. Not sure that I will ice them. She will also take in some sweeties.
Handing notice in at nursery? did I miss something? A money saving thing or have you just come to the end of wanting/needing it?
Hope the car troubles get sorted out …
money mainly, Chris just hasn’t had the supply work to make it even vauguely worth it on cost, and although SB has loved it, she has made friends at 2 hone ed groups to work on.
Also, I think after April they would have been wondering when she was leaving anyway, as then of education age!
No real benefit for BB alone to go atm
Hope the car gets sorted – cheaply
And well done on your efficiency interview! You are indeed a highly-valued member of society, and we salute you
rofl alison – though you are known for your salute…
truly terrifying. I hope i never have to do it again.
Told you you were great.
Well done on nursery notice, right decision and will ALWAYS aim to step in as care for any likely supply work that ambles past. May even be closer soon
Well finishing nursery was always going to happen around now really anyway, seeing as she is 5 and all that. Car seems to be working fine now. So now we are elft wondering if it is goign to do it again sometime?
Big had a kitchen just like that, donated by a relative. Bits fell off and it was consigned to the garage, and is now somewhere in the brambles behind it!
Happy Birthday Mr Bean
